Plug the Nintendo 64 Controller into the socket on
the front of the Control Deck as shown.
Up to four controllers can be connected at the
same time, but for most games, only the controller
plugged into socket number one will operate the
START button.
Foreign materials (such as food or beverage residue) may cause the controller
buttons to stick. To avoid this problem, keep food and beverages away from the
controller and always wash your hands before playing.
Each game may have different functions for each of the buttons, + Control Pad and
Control Stick. Depending on the game, the controller will be held in one of the three
positions shown. For further instructions, consult the instruction booklet for the Game
Pak you are using.

other soft surface, or in any location where any of the ventilation slots may become
