Additional Information

Wireless Bluetooth Receiver for Nintendo 64

Posted by Viktor on 2nd Feb 2026

It's a wireless bluetooth receiver for the Nintendo 64 based on the open source BlueRetro project. You just plug the dongle into the console and from there you can connect a wide variety of controllers and accesories to use on the N64. The build quality of the dongle is good, it feels rigid and fits snugly into the controller port. The button feels good to press and hold. I primarily bought these receivers to connect my Nintendo Switch Nintendo 64 controllers to my original N64. But first I've downloaded the latest firmware and installed it using the WebUI. I have used the new beta interface as recommended by the project author. Everything on the new interface is cleanly organized into distinct categories and pages. Connecting to the dongle using bluetooth is simple and from there it was easy to upload and install the new firmware. On this interface you can also configure various other things like button mappings and game specific presets. You can select source and target button mappings from a drop down, so you'll have the proper labels for the controller that you want to use. You can also setup things like connected accessories to the controller, like Rumble Paks and Controller Paks. The receiver offers up to 4 Controller Pak slots and these can be managed by the WebUI too. You can download, as well as upload Memory Paks as you please. After updating the firmware I was able to connect my NS N64 Controller and play my games as usual, but without a cable having to run through my room. My only minor gripe is the requirement of a chromium based webbrowser, due to the WebBluetooth requirement, but I can look past that. All in all this receiver does everything I need it to do, and with flying colors. I'd buy these dongles again.
