Do the high resolution modes cause unpleasant interlace flicker or does the N64's natural astigmatism filter neutralize it?
Is this thing worth getting outside of the 3 games that it's mandatory for? (Donkey Kong, Majora's Mask, and Perfect Dark)

expansion pack only affects the games you mentioned

N64 supports flicker filtering.

Yes. There are a fair few games that properly take advantage of it. Games like Rogue Squadron, Battle for Naboo, Indy Infernal Machine can run in high resolution with it and the framerate isn't really any different. Turok 2 has a pretty shitty framerate regardless so you may as well play it in high resolution. Quake 2 runs in 24bit high-color mode with the Expansion Pak and there's no framerate penalty for it (actually I think the framerate might be better).
Other games had Expansion Pak support thrown in at the last minute and aren't properly optimized for it. Castlevania Legacy of Darkness and Hybrid Heaven are good examples. Their framerates are generally atrocious in high resolution.

I see you havent used one.
Try it with Shadowman64. The draw distance is increased enormously.

Except that literally does not answer his question. He wasn't asking for a list of games with support, he was asking what benefit the games with support even received.
>>3082246
Not that anon.
How much do you need to be hand held? I'm serious. Are you retarded? Trying to make a conversion by asking a simple conversation?

Nope. Sorry underageb&.
I got an expansion pak so I can use virtually unlimited lines of code at once on gameshark, which I use to practice Super Mario 64.

All games supported by the Expansion Pak have better graphics and run smoother.
Some games provide in-game video settings that take advantage of the xpac, others don't but still take advantage of the pak.
Only a few games require the pak to run. If you're interested in a N64, its generally recommended if not expected of you that you pick up a Expansion pak. Just do it, they're cheap and you get a lot of it.
Are there any games that won't work with the expansion pak installed and require you to replace it with the jumper pak?
I recall there was at least one Saturn game that didn't work with the 4MB expansion cartridge.
>>3082890
I think maybe Space Station Silicon Valley.
>>3082908
nah, that game works fine on my N64 with the xpak.
>>3082246
Wow, you're literally retarded. That is the stupidest failed attempt at a nitpick I've seen in a long, long time. And I come here every day recently so that's saying a lot.
>>3082890
the two games that require their own respective ROM cartridges to work?
>>3082920
The opening cutscene crashes when you use the xpak. When the ship crashes into the station it freezes. I'm U.S. though, are you? Maybe it's different on different versions?
>>3082131
I still think its funny that DK64 only required this, because they couldn't fix a bug in time for release, and noticed the bug didn't occur with the pak installed.
