WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase: Colours and Sprites Restoration Mod

Dolphin's custom texture feature allows for texture replacement, and apparently WarioWare D.I.Y. sprites are turned into textures when transferred to its WiiWare counterpart, so... thought I might as well give it a shot
If you want to download this mod for yourself, follow this link (although keep in mind none of the custom textures for my own microgames are present, considering I haven't publicly released them yet): drive.google.c...

Keep in mind Nintendo was working with the limitations of having these be transferable to WarioWare: D.I.Y, so they kinda had to cut corners to get the game out without sacrificing DS compatibility.

The unmodded textures on look like something bundled with a famiclone

[@Sonictheoofhog4]

I think that's due to the unmodded textures being made in the game's sprite editor

Now that i see that the famicom ones look barely different makes me imagine the wwdiy palette is just a simplified famicom palette

[@fco64]

I mean the difference colors makes sense because they used the engine you use to make microgames Please release that steamed hams microgame

[@JaxCoolKartunes]

Well... You did what Nintendo didn't

[@TrueSSSStudios]

or rather couldnt the minigames are based on the warioware diy colour palatte, which was very limited, so they had to get creative with how they drew their sprites

[@0xm]

Can someone please port warioware diy to pc I’ve been begging for this for years

[@FronkDoesThings]

A PC port would be so cool, I like to imagine there would be a Classic and Advanced mode for making games and other stuff. Classic would be like the original, also allowing you to export them as .mio files and even play them on a real copy if you want, and Advanced would have more AI slots, any color, unlimited space for cels and more sprites. The stuff I listed is only for games though.

[@RetroT-Bones]

Now that is polish, and accurate to the original than WarioWare D.I.Y when it comes to palettes.

[@mariomemester1249]

Whoa. This mod is a game changer.

[@alexistramirez]

This is Great!

[@TommyDeonauthsArchives]

Wait, there was a Microgame based off DKC2!?

[@saladplainzone]

I think you forgot to change some of the sprites out in the footage of the wl4 one (still screenshot is fine), otherwise really good!

[@yoshikfireball]

yeah i didn't realise it but the idle sprite of wario has a different texture between the japanese and american versions of the game, thus giving it a different dumped texture name (japanese version has a light blue background behind it, american version got rid of it, and i didn't notice) - it's fixed in the download though (all of the still screenshots minus punch out and kid icarus were taken in the japanese version of the game, because it's the one i'm currently making microgames in)

[@saladplainzone]

@@yoshikfireball ahhh, that makes sense

[@turtlelover4799]

The limited color palette of DIY makes a lot of the Nintendo microgames look like bootlegs (which I suppose fits the nature of WarioWare). Also I'm curious if you'll do this type of video with the DS microgames (I'm especially curious how you'll handle stuff like Zelda Phantom Hourglass or Pikmin).

My question is how they fucked up so much with Donkey Kong

@@camohere I know. but I got confused about if it's a mod or a D.I.Y stage

[@puffypuff3144]

I am curious how you got your own microgames imported into Dolphin given as far as I'm aware there's no feature for Dolphin to connect to a DS emulator yet. Did you port save data from an actual Wii or is there a save editor for DIY and Showcase?

[@yoshikfireball]

there is a save editor

[@puffypuff3144]

@@yoshikfireball thats pretty awesome, i did see a rather rudimentary one for DIY a long time ago but i had no idea there was one compatible with Showcase

That... is a very strange peculiarity...

[@bobalinx8762]

Are you able to go replace textures with those of a higher resolution?

[@yoshikfireball]

you probably can if you expand the dimensions, but the game will scale your texture down to its intended size, so it'd probably only look clean if you make the dimensions a multiple of whatever the original dimensions were (so 64x64 would only look good with a 128x128, 256x256, etc. resolution) since most of the games here were meant to have a specific sprite resolution anyway, it wasn't necessary for me to make them higher res, otherwise they wouldn't have looked like the games they're representing
