Provenance brings the Nintendo 64 to your iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. The N64 delivered legendary 3D gaming experiences — Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, GoldenEye 007, Mario Kart 64, and more — and Provenance makes it possible to revisit those games on your Apple device.

No jailbreak is required, and Provenance is available free on the App Store as an open-source project.

Supported File Formats

N64 ROMs come in several byte-order variants:

  • .z64 — Big-endian format; the preferred and most compatible format
  • .n64 — Little-endian format
  • .v64 — Byte-swapped format

Features

  • Save States — Save anywhere, not just at official in-game checkpoints
  • Controller Support — Physical controllers (MFi, Xbox, PlayStation) provide the most authentic N64 experience; analog stick input is fully supported; on-screen controls available
  • Shader Support — Visual enhancement filters for a cleaner modern look or a faithful retro presentation
  • Cheat Codes — GameShark N64 code support

iCloud Sync with Provenance Plus

Provenance Plus adds iCloud sync for your Nintendo 64 save states. Your progress through Ocarina of Time or a Mario Kart season is automatically backed up and synced across all your devices.
