The record for the world's smallest Nintendo 64 has just been broken. The Nintendo 64 is often modded, whether it be games or the console itself. And a niche community has been working on creating portable Nintendo 64 mods over the years, competing to make them smaller and smaller with each iteration. One modder may have just perfected the mod with his creation, making a Nintendo 64 mod that is smaller than the original controller.

In a recent video, GmanModz explains all of the details of how he built the world's smallest Nintendo 64 portable. He gives tons of incredible information, including how he uses computer technology to plan his approach, how he uses a 3D printer for some parts, but how he basically does most of the work the "old-fashioned" way by taking apart a Nintendo 64 and rebuilding it into a portable console. He also explains a lot of interesting details and specs, including the fact that he made strategic decisions like choosing the tiny Joycon controllers to save the smallest amount of space, or that the R and Z buttons are both shoulder buttons on the top.

GmanModz also shows off how the JoyCon analogs work playing Turok, and how that actually may perform better than the traditional Nintendo 64 controller. Games like Perfect Dark (which is finally making a return) were fun in the Nintendo 64 era, but were perhaps held back a bit thanks to a limited controller, so playing those games with a more modern controller set up is an interesting idea.

Another enjoyable aspect of the video is simply watching all of the video games being played. The Nintendo 64 had great games, and the idea of being able to play them on the go is one that sounds fantastic to many. That could be a part of why the Nintendo Switch is having so much success, as Nintendo on the go is a great sales pitch.

The actual functionality of the mini Nintendo 64 console leaves some room to be desired, but that really isn't the point. The console battery life is only a bit over an hour, and GmanModz says that it isn't exactly comfortable to play with. GmanModz also created a much more functional and what he calls an "actually good" Nintendo 64 portable designed with the GameBoy Advance SP in mind. The goal here with the super small Nintendo 64 really was just to create a fun project and break the record, and that's exactly what GmanModz did.
