Redirect to:

Nintendo 64 accessories#Expansion Pak

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a subtopic: This is a redirect from a subtopic of the target article or section.
- If the redirected subtopic could potentially have its own article in the future, then also tag the redirect with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.

To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.

With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
- If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
- Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
- {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
- When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

-The '''Expansion Pak''' is a [[Random access memory|RAM]] add-on for the [[Nintendo 64]] game console, released in 1998. It doubles the total amount of RAM in the Nintendo 64 from 4[[Megabyte|MB]] to 8MB. This allows for greater [[screen resolution]], more detailed [[graphics]], and a higher [[frame rate]]. The [[Nintendo 64DD]] was the initial reason the Pak was made, because the extra RAM would be required to run the add-on. It replaces the Nintendo 64's Jumper Pak.

-The only games that require its use are ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' (originally the Expansion Pak was included with purchase of the latter). The Expansion Pak was utilized in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' for more onscreen characters at one time, as shown in Clock Town. Also, without the add-on, most of ''[[Perfect Dark]]'' is inaccessible (including the single player mode).  It was also used in ''[[StarCraft#Nintendo 64 version|Starcraft 64]]'', to unlock levels from the popular ''[[Brood War]]'' add-on for the [[Personal computer|PC]] version of the game.

-Several third-party substitutes were released; however, complaints arose regarding stability and overheating issues, in addition to often being larger than normal size, causing them to stick out of the system.
