I've decided to write an e-book called "A Hacker's Guide to the Nintendo 64", and provide it as an exclusive reward for Mupen64Plus AE supporters! It will cover some fun projects of various difficulty levels. Topics will include controller modifications and adaptation strategies, how to rip ROMs from your game cartridges, programming your own homebrew N64 games, and a couple arduino projects.

This e-book will also document my attempt to create a hybrid OUYA / N64 controller (with a touchpad on top) that appears like a native OUYA controller to the console. The attempt may not be successful, but either way it should be fun to read about and get ideas from!

If you're interested, please stop by the Kickstarter page and support the effort if you are able!

Looks like it went over the goal rather early.
An interesting approach to fund development of emulation projects.

What kind of a response was that? You have something against people learning how to hack N64 games?

I for one have been seeking how to edit hex in such a way to create size mod codes for certain N64 games.

No.

It is one thing to make money from your own code....

But making money off ports?
Sounds skeevy...

I'm not making any profit from this Kickstarter. It is to fund pre-ordering some devkits ($800 each) to make the port possible. That is totally in the spirit of crowd funding I think, and both the Android app and the OUYA one once it is completed are free.
