Ultra PIF (Region Free N64)

The UltraPIF is a replacement for the PIF-NUS chip of the Nintendo 64.

The PIF-NUS chip is responsible for region locking and copy protection. But it also has some essential features.

The UltraPIF replaces all the functions of the original PIF, but ignores the CIC and therefore allows a region free, PAL and NTSC compatible N64. In addition, the UltraPIF has a built-in clock generator to support true 50 and 60Hz. 

An RGB LED replaces the original LED and indicates whether the N64 operates in NTSC or PAL.
