Fantastic, thanks for the confirmation! Little sad about it, but ehh, it's not like DK64 carts are expensive or anything.

That makes sense to me, I'm glad I asked instead of assuming.

I usually use an Everdrive for convenience, and I didn't see anything in the rules for DK64 that explicitly bans it (unlike some other N64 games).

In the event they are allowed, are the de-blur gameshark codes or de-blur ROM patches allowed? Currently waiting on that N64 Digital restock and want to know if I can improve the video quality without disqualifying myself.
