My explanation: iQue was a Chinese video-game company founded in the year of 2002 as a joint venture between Nintendo and Chinese scientist Wei Yen. It served as Nintendo’s official distributor and localization partner in mainland China during a time when home consoles were banned. To navigate this restriction, iQue released the iQue Player, a unique, controller-shaped device that housed the hardware of a Nintendo 64 and plugged directly into a television (TV).
 
That controller is the spiritual predeccesor of those fanmade controllers imo
 
I saw that one on Rerez it has a built in N64 game in it kinda like those plug and play controller/console.
 
Looks like a cross between the Xbox "Duke" and a N64 controller. Would probably handle better than an actual N64 controller.
 
To me, it looks more like saturn 3d controller or the dreamcast...
Dpad on this knockoffs are usually quite bad and so the same can be said about the L and R buttons.
 
Honestly, I only learned about the console through the review of a Spanish YouTuber named TuberViejuner and also that the iQue Although it is a Chinese console with Nintendo 64 hardware, it is 100% Official.
 
It also nicely warms your hand playing games during winter but during summer you enjoy hand BBQ!!! lolol

It seems it blows hot hair up, so you can use it to dry your hair and wet clothes!!!

"Excuse me, I have to play a game because otherwise I'll die so may I use your TV for a while?"
*plugs it to the TV and plays it*
"Watch me gaming because it's way more interesting than watching news!!!"
lolol

I forgot to write iQue Player instead of iQue only.
 
I remember seeing this on Youtube. There were also iQue versions of various Nintendo handhelds. This GBA SP that celebrates the year of the dog is especially cool.

I think this played games from any region. But the iQue DS and 3DS had lockout chips.
 
AFAIR some of them ran their own versions of games, there is a Zelda OoT version, but language aside obviously couldn't find in what it differs from the one we got
