Would love a "auto compiler" and uninstaller. I found in the directives theres a intimidating setup so I passed on these projects. I have the .z64 and i dont expect that to be applied obviously the rom cannot be included but i feel like some things dont have a uninstaller and the setup was pretty crazy when I read about it.

[@doodledangernoodle2517]

There’s a really neat fan version of Super Mario World called the “Just Keef Edition”. The main goal of the hack is to make Dinosaur Land feel more like… Dinosaur Land. The original version had very few dinosaur-themed enemies. Just Keef Edition adds tons of brand new dinosaurs that are taken from various sources such as the Super Mario World cartoon as well as the massive Nintendo gigaleak from a few years back. Not only this, but there are numerous graphical overhauls as well, such as making Bowser’s oddly green skin in the original, properly orange as depicted in his official art. It’s definitely my preferred method of playing Super Mario World nowadays.

[@oddishsmile7368]

The funniest part of All Stars on the Wii is that digging through the source files reveals it to be identical to the version in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, down to the inclusion of the demo text. I don't think it was physically possible for Nintendo to be lazier with that release. Additionally, you can take the disc out of your wii while it's running and because it's an SNES game, the entire game will stay in your console's RAM and continue to be playable.

[@Epicccccccccccccccccccc]

Fun fact: I’m pretty sure you can do the same thing with animal crossing on gamecube

[@oddishsmile7368]

I wonder if that applies to any other ported N64 games. I have a friend with a copy of Ocarina Of Time I can try that with.

[@Imperatrixxy]

Nintendo loves releasing "remasters" that are actually emulation in disguise. If you delve into the files of Super Mario 3D all-stars, you will find the original N64 and GameCube ROMs of the Three games, coupled with some scripts to patch the games into behaving like Nintendo Switch games.

[@oddishsmile7368]

@@Imperatrixxy I don't find that entirely unreasonable. Whatever the most recent Sonic collection is that remakes the games in Unity has some stinky physics changes from the originals that make them feel off to play. Stuff like the SEGA AGES or Mega collections didn't have that issue. Rereleasing 3 16+ year old games for 60 dollars and doing the limited time release is a different story, but not a super important one. (It is funny, if a bit sad watching collectors pay hundreds to scalpers for the collection when the 3 games that make it up are less than $100 in total, and famously easy to emulate.)

[@Imperatrixxy]

@@oddishsmile7368 There's a difference between remasters and remakes. Remasters take the original game and update the code and assets to conform with the new standard. As such, they will generally feel like the original game. Remakes on the other hand take inspiration, but rarely any code/assets from the original game. They're usually rebuilt from the ground up, and as such they can deviate quite a bit in feel from the original game. And then there's emulation. Don't get me wrong; it's a cost effective and efficient way to bring older games to newer devices, and the results can be amazing. But you will always have some drawbacks, with input lag being a main offender. This can of course be mitigated by having the emulator run ahead of you and predict what buttons you're going to press, but not all emulators do that. (Looking at you, Nintendo) In all three cases though, it all comes down to effort. A half-assed attempt at either will result in a half-assed product. When remaking a game, you must make sure the spirit stays true to the original (Looking at you, SEGA). And when you remaster a game, you need to make sure that the assets are up to par and not some bland AI generated rubbish (Looking at you, Rockstar). And for emulation, well, if you started putting some effort in your own emulators instead of going after third party ones, there would be less reasons for players to pick up the third party ones (Looking at Nintendo again).

All of these fan projects look amazing. I really like how GameBoy games look in color and how SNES games appear in widescreen. I don't know how many more SNES games have been modified to run in widescreen. I did some research and found out that Super Metroid, Zelda Link to the Past, and F-Zero have widescreen mods, but I would love to see other games in widescreen too. 2D games like Donkey Kong Country, Yoshi's Island, Kirby Super Star, or imagine Star Fox in high resolution and widescreen, since it uses 3D models. I really like how someone has recreated all of the models for Mario Kart 64 as closely as possible to make high-resolution sprites. They could have just used AI upscaling, which wouldn't look as good. I also really like that someone is remaking Super Mario 64. Some things look a bit off to me, like Goombas, but it's because the models are based on the promo art and this isn't the final version. I hope Nintendo doesn't shut it down, and the development continues. I think the reason Nintendo shuts down fan projects is that they're really focused on the console market, and they want their games to be exclusive. They don't want their games to be played on anything other than a Nintendo console, and they want as many people as possible to be on their platform. Some companies don't shut down fan projects, such as Sega because they don't make consoles anymore, and their only successful game series is Sonic, which has had many failed games. So they wanted someone who has made fan projects to work on an official product, and Sonic Mania became incredibly successful and is considered to be the best Sonic game of all time. Valve also allows fan projects and their games to be modified. Black Mesa, the remake of Half-Life, started as a fan project before turning into an official product and is literally the best remake I've ever played because it doesn't just improve graphics, it also expands upon the levels and adds new mechanics. They did shut down some projects, such as an N64 port of Portal, but that has to do with Nintendo, and Team Fortress 2 on the Source 2 engine because it was a standalone game that used their assets without permission, if it was a mod, Valve would probably allowed it. Black Mesa started as a mod, then turned into a standalone game with Valve's permission, that's why it is official. Valve is also probably planning to port TF2 to Source 2 themselves in the future. In conclusion, fans can truly do something special and the work should be appreciated.

[@ErdrickHero]

Actually, All-Stars really was quite literally a collection of simple ports. It was translated to the SFC's instruction set, but with the console being nearly 1:1 backwards-compatible, few alterations were made to the code. The sound engine is obviously completely new, and there were likely some modifications to the picture pipeline to account for the updated graphics, but the code underneath that drives the games' logic is identical save for a few bug fixes. And yes, that means there are four game engines on the cartridge (five with SMW), plus the frontend.

It's a rom hack to Super Mario Sunshine, it doesn't boot you out of level after beating it, it no longer pauses the game when collecting blue coins, the long jump is added, you can skip all pre-rendered cutscenes, and so much more.

[@VitalVampyr]

Just updating graphics and maybe some additional stuff is a remaster (or rerelease, depending on how little they update).

Nintendo has a Disney complex, and their Japanese stance on copyright isn't particularly compatible with modern values. We see video games as works of art to be treasured and preserved for all to enjoy. They see them as an asset to be protected at all costs, even if they have no intention of actually doing anything with them themselves.

[@M64bros]

​@@eternal221 Then how come I still see another Metroid remake available for download along with others.

[@toastbrot97]

Oh wow, what a fantastic video! The abrupt ending really caught me by surprise. I was very invested and immersed and all of a sudden it was over. I would have easily listened for another 10 mins :D

[@NCozy]

Weird and unrelated question but does anyone remember the all controller? I remember being really excited for it years ago and it never came out.

[@HoneyMike]

Faintly

[@CamronJK]

Your video quality is the best. Definitely one of the best channels on KZbin.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

It's all good till Nintendo sends you To court.😂

[@streetmagik3105]

Nice! I like the Just Bad Games series, but glad to see more old-school kinda content.

[@luigibudd]

Here during the premiere!

[@droycon]

I’d say Mario world’s definitive edition is Mario world 30th anniversary edition, it adds an opening cutscene (same as the gba one) and keeps track of the dragon coins you collected, same as the new super Mario bros games. It changes the way you play the game as you are now actually encouraged to collect the dragon coins to 100% the game. It also changes some of the secret exists, which I personally don’t like but might be exciting for some

[@SilentPrayerCG]

Nintendo: Thanks for the list, Shane. Our paramilitary hight tech tactical squads, already dispatched to eliminate threat to our money.

[@darkmario66]

Much love for for everyone who put time and effort into every remaster and remake and rerez for this video. That mario 96 game is really gross. The actual render need to stay as renders and not models in the game. It completely blows what made mario 64 mario 64

[@sage-on6jf]

It's too bad that somewhere an agent of Nintendo is looking at this video. Now, next thing you know, all the games mentioned in this video? Get Nintendo's ban hammer. Place your bets, people.

[@HeadHunter-mv2ht]

Why hasn’t Nintendo worked with the fan community to bring back old classics? Simple because there too focused on stopping fans.

[@freeuploads4290]

Wow, time to mess up my sleep schedule to watch this at 10 PM

[@LucidDreamingLimited]

I actually had supermarioland as a kid ( born in 2000) and it was crazy seeing it in this video unlocked some core memories. The old big brick and that game or purple gameboy and playin with an adapter great times and amazing game

[@blackunoreverscard]

spam balls when the video starts

[@HatInLime]

Kinda surprised you didn't mention Paper Mario 4k tbh. Still great video overall, though! I do wish Nintendo was better on the notion of fan-content.

[@Foxxyz_official]

Super mario 64 ds was a remake of sm64 and you're acting like it never got one

[@LowPoly64]

I get the concept of remastering the game, while still keeping the charm/style of the original release. But for sm64, I would love to see a remake of SM64 more along the lines of Harold de Boer's Super Mario 64 Re-Imagined rather than the Render96 Project.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

Cause Nintendo to busy suing the Pants off of people who make these.😂

[@Waltman13]

As unlikely as it is to ever happen, I would kill to see Render96 get an official release on Switch (or the Switch 2). The team's work into recreating the 90s promotional models is nothing short of spectacular.

That Mario 64HD is INCREDIBLE. Shane what a fukcing enlightening video. I don't know how else to put it ! Amazing bro

[@reshader8864]

Always a good idea to draw attention to Nintendo fan projects.

[@megafitife]

bro, this a small channel, im pretty sure many larger channels have already covered these titles in depth, and have received many more views. plus, this the internet, you'll never ever be able to wipe any of these titles off the net

[@thewingedavenger1007]

It's great to see Rerez actually cover good games, however rarely!

[@starlitalpha7]

Nintendo is not interested in things like this. They would rather spend 250k on an inclusion consulting firm for Pokemon. Oh, and they will DMCA any of these that hit their radar.

[@jesusramirezromo2037]

Rent feee in your head huh They didn't hire an "inclusion consultant" for games, NOA did it for their employees

[@starlitalpha7]

"In addition to these standard position duties, the eventual hire will also find themselves responsible for “driv[ing] alignment of DEI goals with business strategy for both internal employees, external fans and the communities we serve” - in other words, making sure that DEI remains a focus of not just TPCi’s own operations, but their approach to interacting with players and fans." It's going to be in everything they do. If you don't know what you're talking about, you should shut your mouth. Though I imagine in your case you'd never speak/type a word ever again. @@jesusramirezromo2037

[@DJCube1701]

@@jesusramirezromo2037 These people think one tiny consultation firm is in control of the entire video gaming industry. And all that hate just because some modern video games base their female models on women that are over 16 years old.

[@DaNintendude]

What's been on my mind for the last several months, is the idea of a fully redone Super Mario All-Stars. Remakes of all the classics in the Super Mario Bros. Wonder style. SMB Wonder's visual style is very malleable and would allow for a lot of variation and differentiation to be possible. Mario could be animated differently in each of the remakes, and maybe have his models and colors tweaked per game as well. I'd love it if they made the physics as close to the NES originals as possible, to retain that classic feel. They can blend modern Mario designs with nostalgic backgrounds and design elements. They could include the intro cutscenes from the GBA versions of SMB3 and SMW. And maybe make brand new ones for SMB, and both SMB2s. Of course, the pipe dream would be for even more games to be added. Super Mario Land, Super Mario Land 2, and maybe even arcade games like Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. I feel like Nintendo is definitely at a place where they could make new remakes of the classics that play and look extremely well. They've already set themselves up with how flexible Super Mario Bros Wonder's visual style is. It's just up to them to decide to do it. I feel like they'd be much more likely to work on brand new games instead. But a new all-stars would be so cool.

[@Rykyuby]

Fans: could you work with us and we could make your games even better? Nintendo *Jonah Jameson laugh* You serious?

[@tamerkoh]

Something I would also hope for, in terms of definitive remakes of old games, is to bring all the content from different re-releases into the latest version, along with whatever additions and enhancements. For example, for Super Mario World, the GBA version definitely has many great quality of life and gameplay improvements, like being able to play as Luigi with his own unique physics and such, and that should be there along with the WideScreen thing. Give us new, 4K resolution fitting, hand-drawn HD, 2D graphics on top, a remastered OST (both with toggles of course), and it'd be the perfect package, don't you think Rerez? I'm fine if there are no toggles for graphics too personally, but I know that's a deal breaker for some people. For me, I just want the games to both fit our modern screens (no black bars/letterboxing) in terms of space, but also graphical quality. Even back in the day, we weren't meant to be seeing each individual pixel on the screen, cause CRTs weren't precise. So naturally, a remastered version should look as crisp and smooth as possible too. I think the Final Fantasy 1, 2 and 4 PSP remakes are still the best versions of those games, due to all of this. They may not have graphics toggles, but I'm okay with that, cause the updated, higher resolution pixel art visuals are so good already, and they're still the most complete versions of the game. They were built off previous versions on GBA and before, so they offer all the same content and even more on top!

[@newtzrcool]

So excited seeing Render96 and Mario Kart HD talked about here-- They're some of my most favorite projects in this genre.

[@GamerToday]

What a fun and rewarding video🎉 thanks great job. I learned a few minor details on games i beat i didnt notice. I appreciate the well made conent.

[@ccm088]

13:36 Who else was expecting Rerez to say "Super Mario World: Just Keef Edition"?

[@jakesmith5278]

The only thing Nintendo will give you is a DMCA.

[@dwalin619]

The modded version of Super Mario Kart just looks how I remember the game.

[@h8GW]

The reason Nintendo won't do these retro remasters is because they want to make retro gaming games-as-a-service.

[@LogosGaming]

Nintendo step in... DMCA everyone, close citra, close Wii u shops, and 3ds shop. Maybe better If Nintendo doesn't step in

[@leomon32]

Don't worry, Nintendo notice and ask to remove them whenever there's even just an advertisement on the download page.

[@RocketRoosterFilms]

16:30 Thanks for being so brave, Shane. I know how strange it is for a Canadian to say "zee" like we do in the states.
