【Ultra Rare】64DD Console (Blue Box)

This is the blue-box version of the Nintendo 64 Disk Drive 64DD. It is a rare item with even fewer units released than the standard Randnet version (yellow box).
I am selling it to organize my collection. This is a must-have for any 64 collector who doesn't already own one!
I was told by the person I acquired it from that the 64DD was originally planned to be distributed in general retail stores, like other Nintendo products, and a small number of these blue-box versions were manufactured before the decision was made at the last minute to handle it through Randnet.
Unfortunately, the outer box has some damage, but the contents, including the main unit, the Expansion Pak, and the instruction manual, are in beautiful condition and complete.
Please check the photos for details. The unit has not been tested for operation (it was working when I acquired it in the early 2000s).
Due to the nature of the product, returns cannot be accepted, so please purchase with your understanding.
