Quake Playthrough (Actual N64 Capture) - The Slipgate Complex
[Note: This video and description were originally posted on Youtube on October 1, 2022.]
This is part 1 of my 100% playthrough of Quake on the Nintendo 64. This is not an emulator. This footage was captured directly from my Nintendo 64 using a real Quake cartridge. I'm playing on Nightmare difficulty.
I picked up a sealed copy of Quake off eBay all the way back in 2013 but I only played through a handful of stages before I got distracted with my Youtube recordings. I have already completed several other classic shooters such as Wolfenstein 3D on the SNES, Doom I and II on the GBA, and Doom 64 for my channel, so I think it’s finally time to tackle Quake.
I don’t have much experience with this game aside from when I initially tried it in 2013, but I know that Quake was id Software’s next major FPS franchise after Doom. Aside from having actual 3D graphics, Quake also features jumping and free aiming, which actually makes the game a bit more challenging (at least on a console).
Ever since I started my channel in 2012, I have had a tradition inspired by the Angry Video Game Nerd of posting Halloween-themed games for the month of October. This has typically involved Castlevania games, but I have posted all of those in my collection except for the Sega Genesis and arcade games, and that just won’t fill an entire month with uploads. Quake has a dark demonic theme though, so that fits the bill quite well, just as Doom 64 did before.
One thing I like about Quake is that you don’t have to pick up a certain number of items for 100% completion. Instead, you simply need kill all of the enemies and find all of the secrets. Although this is basically a port of the PC game, it’s missing a few stages and has a different soundtrack. Also, the levels are no longer grouped into chapters. Still, it’s a decent port overall.
In this first part I completed Map 1: The Slipgate Complex.
Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the official N64 S-video cable. I used a Toshiba model D-R550 DVD Recorder to upconvert the N64's native 240p signal to 480i so that the Hauppauge could capture the console's audio/video signal.

Doom 64 Playthrough (Actual N64 Capture) - Playground
This is part 32 of my 100% playthrough of Doom 64 on the Nintendo 64. This is not an emulator. This footage was captured directly from my Nintendo 64 using a real Doom 64 cartridge. I'm playing on Watch Me Die! difficulty.
In this final part I completed Map 27: Playground. This is a bonus "fun" map that can only be accessed from the Features menu.
There are two ways to access the Features menu. The first and harder way is to beat Map 32: Hectic, and then pause the game. You will then have access to the Features menu, but you will lose this access once you turn off the system.
The second and easier to way is to simply enter this passcode: ?TJL BDFW BFGV JVVB. Once the game starts, you can access the Features menu by pausing the game.
