Repeated bleaching makes the material brittle. Personally, I’d paint it or look for special decals.

He is a Trump supporter, so I guess he’s going to represent Trump.

“Plug-and-play solution” is definitively not true. Requires homebrew firmware and ISOs on some storage device:

"The Broadband Adapter emulation feature currently does not support loading games from physical discs, so it’s close to useless to people who just wanna revive their old GameCube and not learn the ins and outs of GC homebrew techniques.

Never heard of them before this.

Are all the bugs and mistranslations there?

Probably. The SNES CPU is only a slightly advanced version of the NES CPU. That’s why simple NES to SNES cartridge adapters exist.

Why hasn’t Nintendo done anything yet? It’s weird.

Nintendo are weird. Sometimes they don’t do anything for years and then suddenly lawsuit over 10 gazillion in damages. When doing anything unlicensed with Nintendo properties, the rules of thumb are: Keep it low key, don’t monetize it. Both common sense rules Infidelity didn’t care to follow.

Not from microsoft but rather from nintendo. Same reason portal 64 got axed

Inb4 cease and desist

Minecraft clones exist. Calling a clone a “Minecraft port” and using that trademark is not the smartest idea, though.

“Remaking Minecraft on the Nintendo GameCube. My aim is to replicate enough of Minecraft’s mechanics”

A remake is not a port.

Edit:

It’s no longer even going to be a remake. I get the impression he called it a Minecraft port to generate buzz. I hope he wasn’t misleading people on purpose.

Yeah, Ahoy is great.

It looks like the project is really careful not to include copyrighted materials in their distribution.

Source code automatically generated from copyrighted binary code is a derivative of copyrighted code, though. It’s like taking a copyrighted book and running it through Google Translate and then clean up the sentences manually. You could be lucky that a publisher might not care about a translation into Icelandic but if you were to auto-translate a French version of a book into English and try to distribute it in the US, you’d probably get in trouble even if you leave out all graphic artwork.

Nintendo has not taken action on the massively popular SM64 Decompilation and PC ports (and ironically switch ports) in the past what…3 years?

Nintendo hadn’t taken action against ROM sites for even more years (I was able to download NES, Game Boy, and SNES ROMs in the 1990s) and then decided to make an example of only one in 2019. Just because something is not on the radar of lawyers in Japan right now, doesn’t mean a law suit over millions could not come any day.

The code compiles 1:1 back into a unable ROM but isn’t made just using a source code leak. It is reverse-engineered just like the SM64 decomp

Decompilation means it’s still derived from copyrighted source code. It’s not a clean-room implementation where one person analyzes the engine, writes documentation about details of that engine, and a completely different person writes a new engine. It’s not even a grey area. The correct procedure is clear ever since back in the day “IBM compatible” were created.

If it were up to me, copyrights would work like patents: After 25 years they’re void and people would be completely in the clear to decompile, modify, and redistribute old games. Sadly that’s not the reality.

Good but world first? Huh? https://www.aidshilfe.de/medien/en/md/gesund-im-job-healthy-at-work-englisch/sex-work-and-law/

People manually recreate shit all the time for a hobby.

Have at it then.

levels could have been recreated manually from watching the footage alone.

The point was to explicitly not just eyeball it but to be as close to pixel perfect as possible. A manual recreation may have been very accurate but certainly not 99.9%.

Your method would be a remake, this is restoration of the original.

Yes but this was also around 30 years ago when data storage was smaller and more expensive.

The biggest SNES games were only a couple of megabytes. Super Mario World is only 512 kilobytes is size. It was certainly possible to archive the complete collection which is 1.7GB uncompressed. In 1992 IBM introduced archival storage tapes that 2.4GB of data.

there’s no official lasting copies that anyone can own.

Then Nintendo did a bad job of preserving it. The game could be an expensive eShop download now…

We are going to have fucking children having car dealerships do their god damn homework for them. Not the future I expected
