And my RGB modded N64, with an illuminated badge. This is the old school RGB mod that's a simple passthrough, although at some point I will probably upgrade to the new mod which has sharper output and the de-blurring switch feature.

I just finished doing a bunch of work on my childhood N64 today. A while back I dremeled out the region tabs so I could play Sin & Punishment (which I still haven't bought but hopefully will soon), and today I installed the RGB mod, cleaned the reset button contacts (the reset switch had been non functional for many years), and for some extra aesthetic flair I dremeled out the area behind the logo and added a white LED and put some foil behind it for more even light distribution. I absolutely love how it looks when it's turned on-- it reminds me of the marquees you'd see on arcade cabinets.

Lastly I washed all the plastic while it was disassembled and polished it up with some pledge. Aside from a few dings and scratches it looks almost factory new. The games look beautiful running through RGB SCART also, even on my component cable CRT TV. As soon as I get paid this upcoming week I'm gonna see if they still have a gameshark available at the game shop so I can try some of those AA-off hacks.
