The Expansion Pak replaces the Jumper Pak and brings the total to 8 MB. A few major games will not start without it. Donkey Kong 64 needs it, as does The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and Perfect Dark locks its single-player campaign and most multiplayer modes without it. Other games use the extra memory for sharper high-resolution modes, including Turok 2: Seeds of Evil and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstalling it takes a minute\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the console switched off, slide off the memory cover near the front of the console's top and pull the Jumper Pak straight up. Press the Expansion Pak firmly into the same slot until it seats, then put the cover back. Games that do not use the extra memory still play normally with it installed, so most owners leave it in for good. Keep the Jumper Pak somewhere safe in case you ever need it, because the console will not run with the slot empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting a pre-owned Expansion Pak\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis listing is for an official Nintendo Expansion Pak, not a third-party memory upgrade. Look for the Nintendo markings on the pak and a snug fit in the slot. It can feel warm after a long session, which is normal for this part. Consoles, Jumper Paks, games and controllers are not part of this listing unless the title says so. If a game that needs the pak reports that it is missing, power off, reseat it and try again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:details --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-facts\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHardware\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNintendo 64 Expansion Pak\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNintendo 64\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAccessory (memory upgrade)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFunction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdds 4 MB of RAM, bringing the console to 8 MB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReplaces the Jumper Pak in the memory slot on top of a Nintendo 64 console\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRequired for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDonkey Kong 64, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and most of Perfect Dark\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaker\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNintendo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-faq\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this item\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhich consoles does the Expansion Pak fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt fits every Nintendo 64 console, including the colored Funtastic editions, in the memory slot under the cover on top.
