cartreader VS 1964GEPD

This particular copy—which was $38 shipped; I probably could've done better, but it was convenient!—appears to have been owned by a Shin Sakuma (佐久間伸 Sakuma, Shin) who put more than a few hours into it judging from the saves. (Which I backed up using my Open Source Cartridge Reader, in the interest of preservation. 😌)

I use my Open Source Cartridge Reader to read/write N64 controller paks. (And read/write save data from cartridges.)

In the long run, another solution might be to buy/build an Open Source Cartridge Reader and use it in combination with one of the more readily available modern flash cartridges.

I'm not from Germany (I'm from France) but I did modify my Nintendo 3DS with something called Gomode9 to dump my DS and 3DS games, I did bought an external Blu-Ray reader BP50NB40 which can be used to dump PS3 games with a tool called ps3-disc-dumper and I built a Sanni Cart Reader (https://github.com/sanni/cartreader) to dump other kind of cartridge for older consoles.

if your into soldering and have other retro games you want to look into the sanni cart reader https://github.com/sanni/cartreader

If you can solder, sanni cartreader is probably the best way to go. Otherwise, you can pay to have one built.

I hope so, but if not there’s always the 1964 emulator made specifically for goldeneye and perfect dark. Keyboard and mouse works with these as well. There’s also Goldeneye Source for online play, but I never tried that so not sure how active it is or easy to set up.

If you want modern precise 1:1 aiming, there's a neat build of the emulator 1964 on PC that'll let you play with mouse and keyboard.

Fun fact: you can get the 1964 GEPD emulator that lets you play Goldeneye (and perfect dark) like a more modern FPS with mouse control.

I use this https://github.com/Graslu/1964GEPD Its a windows source port which works well.

Have you tried 1964GEPD? It's a modified version specifically for Perfect Dark and Goldeneye. Speedhack built in to force Perfect Dark to 60FPS. Also has a mouse injector which is more robust vs. setting up mouse controls in another input plugin.
