About Project64
Project64 is a long-standing Nintendo 64 emulator for Windows that lets users run N64 and 64DD game files on a PC. It reproduces the console's hardware in software so classic titles can be played with modern conveniences such as higher resolutions, fullscreen mode, and controller support.
The emulator is free to download and open-source, developed and maintained by the Project64 team and community contributors under the GNU GPL. Its source code is publicly available, and the project has been refined over many years of ongoing development.
Project64 balances simplicity with depth. It offers a plugin-based architecture for graphics, audio, and input, along with save states, built-in cheat support, fullscreen play, and game-specific settings. Many compatible games run well with the default configuration, so most users can start playing quickly.
Project64 runs on Windows and works with a wide range of N64 titles. It does not include games, ROMs, or copyrighted files; users must provide their own legally obtained game files, and the emulator itself does not collect personal data.
