Can't wait for them to sell this in a new package with other half-assed Mario ports for $60.

Can't wait for fans to make a better product than their port in every way, only for it to get demolished by Nintendo lawyers less than 70 hours after release

Yes that actually happened just a few days ago. Shit like this is why it's always morally correct to pirate Nintendo games

And the SM64 PC port has existed for years at this point and has no sign of being taken down. You know why? They don't distribute copyrighted assets. The people that made the Link's Awakening port screwed up, plain and simple. There's no other explanation for why their project gotten taken down and not SM64 or OoT ports, which are monumentally bigger games for Nintendo.

Source code is also copyrighted and people keep releasing "reverse-engineered" games that are just reusing original decompiled code. This MIGHT be legal in US according to some weird law people keep referencing, but pretty much guaranteed to be illegal in most of the world.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who ran around the fountain in the courtyard 128 times to try to get Luigi in my game

Isn't it not supposed to happen until 2248 or something?

[–] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I think it was 2401, so you are a tiny bit off.

Damn. Now what am I going to do with my life!?

Didn’t the DS re-release have multiplayer? I remember playing as Yoshi but I’m not positive if it was different gameplay or just different graphics.

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Not in the main game, but there was a battle mode I think. I know you could have multiple people running around some small island.

[–] LapGoat@pawb.social 4 points 11 months ago

it had a ds download play multiplayer with small pvp minigames iirc
