On the blue-scale thing, I can answer that one from modding Fire Emblem GBA: the more colors there are in an image, the more space you need for each color. A palette is limited to 16 colors so to get a LOT of colors, you then need to split it into tiles and have each tile get a palette with the colors it uses that aren't shared. Reduce the colors and you can share the same group of colors with more tiles, reducing how much data you need for images in general, since you need less palettes for it.

According to The Cutting Room Floor, the blue tint is actually an error, caused by the red and blue channel information being swapped. You can see things that are supposed to be blue are tinted red instead. The images are apparently all in JPEG format.

There's actually more to the backstory of this game's development than you might think. I don't know if this interview still exists anymore or where to find it, but many years ago there was an interview done with one of the developers involved with this port and they talked at length about the challenges they faced in making it. The biggest challenge they had was in compressing the audio (which you'll notice in the audio quality compared to the other versions). They were basically stymied, but someone managed to send them Chris Huelsbeck to help them out. If you don't know who that is, he's an old-school German game designer and musician/composer who worked on stuff like Turrican, The Great Giana Sisters, and the Rogue Squadron games. The man is an incredible musician and was able to help them overcome the technical hurdles with the audio of the game to actually fit it on there, albeit in a compromised state. For being a port this game had a much more interesting development history than people realize.

I heard they did some trick with the FMVs where they like cut out some amount of frames out of each second of video, as well as reducing the color depth and shrinking the videos themselves down to a smaller resolution, then scaling them up. Like every trick in the book to make them look shockingly good Certainly if you compare them to the titantron videos from the WWF games back then

They developed some new codecs for very advanced compression but it still wasn’t enough, when they hit upon the idea of removing frames then playing them back in a way that doubled them up so the eye wouldn’t notice or something like that. It’s a wild achievement to pull off from a technical perspective.

The ports probably wouldn't have been NEARLY as good as the PlayStation counterparts but at least the N64 wouldn't have been looked down upon as much as it was.

I remember watching my older cousin playing RE2 on his PlayStation growing up. I only had Nintendo consoles as a kid, and it was the first time I saw a mature game with realistic characters in a captivating, haunting setting. I asked for it like a year later for Christmas when I saw it came out on N64. My 13 year old self was ecstatic and proceeded to suck at the game for a couple years until my critical thinking skills kicked in during puberty. Now RE2 is one of my favorite games of all time, and the N64 version introduced me to the series and has made me a lifelong fan :)

And I too have been an RE fan for decades now. Plus the infinite ammo/health cheats always made sure I never got stuck due to anything other than some of the puzzles for the first time. I will never forgive myself for getting stuck on RE3's water sewage puzzle though, I had to buy a strategy guide just to start playing it again and even then hindsight about your older brain vs your babby brain is always gonna be 20/20 but realizing you could just brute force it - I dunno, maybe I was overthinking it too much?

The blue tint in the loading screen is just another way to save space. And a clever one too! Generally you display images in 3 channels: R for Red, G for Green and B for Blue, and that's why it's called RGB. Generally each channel has 8 bits to work with (making it 24 bits in total for each pixel), but it doesn't have to be this way. If you remove R and G, you end up with only a blue channel, thus saving 16 bits for each pixel in the image. This adds up to a LOT, because essentially you're cutting off 66% of the size of the whole picture! But why blue specifically? Because it still manages to look ok. There are papers out there that test how our eyes perceive change in colorspaces, and the red and blue channels are the ones we notice the most. If it was all red it would probably look too agressive, and green would just make it weird. Blue has a nice feel to it and still works, so that's probably why they went with blue.

Most of the audio in RE2 PS1 is sequenced samples, that doesn't take too much space. Dialogs though are streamed XA ( yellow book) audio, that is as compressed as it could. What really takes a lot if space are fmv, wich are stored at 30 fps 320x160 resolution at 24 bit color depth. Indeed the N64 version cut the fmvs framerate to 15 fps and reduced the resolution to 288x144 to fit into the cartridge.

someone mightve already commented this but I think it's very important to note that the ps1 release didn't actually have to be 2 discs. according to an interview I read the main reason it ended up as a 2 disc game is because near the deadline where they had to push the build out they realized they hadn't compressed the audio files enough to fit the whole game on one 700MB disc and didn't have enough time to correct it. Also if you download a ps1 rom of the game it's only 376MB for Leon and 379MB for Claire. Most games do not use the full storage capacity and when you consider that most of the files are the same since both discs largely use the same map the actual total game size is far less than 1.4GB. great video but I felt compelled to point out the math error. no matter what it's an impressive port

They wouldn't have even had to compress the audio to N64 levels to fit things, but then the cutscenes being 30 FPS probably did a number on size.

Great video! I was one of those weirdos whose only hands-on experience playing the game growing up was on N64 lol. I remember being amazed with how they managed to compress the cutscene videos down so much even though (as you noted) it gets extremely noticeable from a resolution/framerate perspective. I don't remember if it was just my imagination but the cartridge literally FELT heavier in the hand than other games, and that for some reason impressed upon me the technological achievement of the port (and RE2 as a whole). It also supported a higher definition 640x480 mode that the Playstation didn't, so that was neat. I also, weirdly enough, grew up to prefer the 1st person controls based on their objectively quicker turning capabilities. I don't dislike the standard tank controls and over the years adjusted better to them, I just preferred the instant-turning as I was not very good at video games lol. Unfortunately the only way I could figure out how to beat it was by using a guide, but I still had a blast experiencing the whole thing with all scenarios. Good to see more people recognizing the N64 port for what it was.

I miss these times where really smart people made games, games received so much love and care, and not to mention content. These days developers are nothing like that, games are unoptimized, content gets ripped constantly, level/world designers have no vision and imagination, only thing left are the stories, at least there are still games with good stories, but even this is in a slight decline since publishers prefer multiplayer games these days over single-player.

Back in those days, console game updates were uncommon. Developers usually only did them if they found something that needed to be censored or bugs that needed to be fixed in the first release. Considering that RE was meant to be bloody, I doubt that it was a censorship thing. So it was probably a bug fixing update. Exactly what bugs they fixed, I have no idea.

It is one of the few games released for the N64 to have FMVs, overcoming the limited storage space on the cartridge. The PlayStation version with two CD-ROMs of up to 700 MB per disc was faithfully replicated (with unique enhancements) on a 64 MB Nintendo 64 Game Pak. In the process, audio and video assets had to be more aggressively and creatively compressed, using novel techniques that shift the burden away from storage and toward the console's high real-time processing power. Across twelve months and with a budget of $1 million,Resident Evil 2 was ported to the console by a team led by nine full-time and one part-time personnel from Angel Studios. Further help was provided by ten staff from Capcom Production Studio 3 and Factor 5.

It should be noted Kai, its been confirmed RE2 didn't actually need to be on 2 discs, the entire game could have fit onto one with the zapping system intact, the double disc thing was just a marketing gimmick so 700 mb was all that was needed rather then double that which means while still very impressive, fitting the game onto a N64 cartridge wasn't as impossible as it seemed.

@@steelbear2063 I think what he meant was this, yes the nintendo 64 was limited with storage, but most of that storage in discs was mostly audio, images & FMVs. Basically if you take all of that away then easily you can fit any game, which is why most ports for the N64 suffered badly because their PS1 counterpart while didn't look nicely it had all the content, so pros and cons for both consoles. Imagine Metal Gear Solid on the N64 that game would've looked monumentally gorgeous compared to the PS1 which was aleady good looking, but it would not be the same without the audio quality and all FMVs that were not real time cutscenes would have to be compressed. There's a reason why final fantasy games shifted to the PS1 four discs but not because the games were that long but because of the amount of audio and FMVs put in these games, but you could argue the same about the Sega Saturn and it didn't see any FF ports and it had discs. So the thing is not about data storage but what you can do with the hardware. Again, some games like Reisdent Evil zero were being developed exclusively for the N64, why didn't they do that for the PS1? Because the capabilities of the Nintendo were far superior for what they were aiming for, yes of course except for the quality you can get from a PS1 disc, they could've done it for the PS2 but they shifted to the Gamecube.

While the N64 port of RE2 was absolutely amazing... imo the story of making "1.4 GB to 64MB" seems pretty unlikely since RE2 wasn't meant to be a 2 disc game and they planned to ship it on a single CD. A miscalculation of the size of the final audio data algorithm, noticed too late, forced them to print the game at a higher cost since they didn't have the time to reprogram the audio algorithms (the game was already way behind schedule). Mikami has said he remember hanging up the phone so a team member had to run to his office to tell him, then gasping in surprise when learning about the mistake :o

Exactly. The Playstation version of Resident Evil 2 can fit on about 600 MB. Resident Evil 2 is a relatively small game when you consider every background is pre rendered and the campaigns all share about 80% of the same assets. I mean compare RE2 to Final Fantasy 7. The campaign is at least 3-4x smaller. The amount of 3D character models and FMVs is insignificant. The only advantage FF7 had was lack of voice acting. CD quality audio took up a LOT of space. Audio optimization in the 90s did a lot of work. They also cut out a lot of frames from the FMVs. Still impressive but reducing 1.4 Gigs to 64 MB would definitely have made for a far worse outcome lol.

About the 1st person controls, when enabled, you can still use tank controls with the D-pad. Also, they're somehow superior to the alternate controls from REmake HD as the orientation of the controls won't change with a camera angle switch until you stop moving. Basically, as long as you keep tilting the control stick and never return it to the zero point, it's quite effective as a means of navigation since your controls won't just switch without warning. Trying to change direction even a little bit after a camera switch in REmake HD doesn't do this and will throw you off completely. Just another high point of this port.
