GameBooster 64 is one of those weird, unofficial N64 cartridges that messes with ROMs in ways they weren’t meant to be messed with. At first glance, it looks like a bootleg—because, well, it kinda is—but there’s something oddly charming about how it brute-forces extra speed and cheats into games that were never designed for it.

You pop it in, pick a ROM, and suddenly Mario’s running at 1.5x speed or Link’s got infinite bombs. It’s janky, sure—some games freak out, others just crash—but when it works, it’s like playing a glitched-up alternate version of your childhood favorites. The menus are barebones, the "features" are basically just overclocking and memory tweaks, and half the time you’re just crossing your fingers that the game won’t freeze.

Not exactly polished, but if you’ve ever wanted to see Ocarina of Time break in new and bizarre ways, this’ll do it.
