Accessory Description
The Nintendo 64 Expansion Pak (Model NUS-007) is an official OEM memory upgrade released by Nintendo in 1998. Designed to double the system’s RAM from 4MB to 8MB, this essential accessory enhances visual fidelity, increases performance, and unlocks additional content in select N64 titles. Housed in a compact red-topped module that fits directly into the console’s memory expansion slot, it quickly became one of the most important first-party upgrades for the system.
By expanding the console’s memory, the Expansion Pak enables richer textures, smoother frame rates, and more detailed environments in supported games. Notable titles such as The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, Donkey Kong 64, and Perfect Dark required or benefited significantly from its additional power. As an official Nintendo product, it features precise build quality and perfect fitment, ensuring seamless installation and long-term reliability for both players and collectors.
