NINT

This page is canon to Super Mario 64: Interactive, a lore being made by RazorBloxy. Please do not edit unless you are helping with the lore or fixing grammatical errors.
The NINT was a scrapped peripheral of the Nintendo 64. Its full name was the Nintendo Interactive. The add-on is similarly designed to that of the Nintendo 64 Disk Drive, connecting to the console from the bottom. The NINT supposedly had a sort of internet connection, being able to record the weather, and add new features to other N64 games, giving them day/night cycles. The implementation of this is only complete for Super Mario 64, however. This causes anomalies such as the Internal Clock or Internal Weather System. Only 3 prototypes were made, according to a leaked internal document from Argonaut, the company that worked on the console and peripheral at the time.

Features of the NINT
The NINT tried to make the Nintendo 64 more like one of their later consoles, the Nintendo Wii. However, the features were relegated to a more primitive menu, reminiscent of the Nintendo GameCube's. It could tell the time, track the weather, albeit how it does this is unknown, and mark dates. It also had Satellaview-esque features, being able to play demos off of a connection. The only demo that came out for the NINT was an early test of Super Mario 64, considering it never shipped worldwide. It was deemed too expensive to mass produce, and shelved.

SAI Leak
According to a leaked document, NINTtrackerdocument.pdf, only 3 NINTs were made. The document was made to track where the NINTs were, considering that they were property of Nintendo and Argonaut at the time. The first NINT was destroyed inside an Argonaut-owned building. The reason why is unknown. The second was handed off to a man under the name of Marcus Werner, before trading hands to Stanley Smith. Any information on what Stanley has done with the NINT is unknown, but he is mentioned in the leak elsewhere. The third one was thrown away, but speculation has occurred if that NINT was sent off to a thrift store instead.
