@@V3ntilator "Forced"? Who's forcing you? If you were genuinely bothered then don't buy it.

A big youtuber commented, alleluiah! Also, I agree with you. You can play emulators in 4K 60fps only by spending 500 dollars, or more. It's not accessible for people that don't have much money

Dolphin is a great emulator, and is only getting better by every year. Yeah, I'm not buying this, I already own Sunshine and Galaxy(aswell as a modded Wii to rip these games with) Galaxy already has HD Textures available to dolphin, so what nintendo offers here is too little.

Morte Nera dolphin runs like a charm, even on my Core i3-5010u laptop. Sure, not in 4k, but well enough at 720p. If you already own the game, it's most likely not worth the purchase.

@@torgg7493 Yeah, I saw that one a while ago

Yea the community is also calling it LEGO Mario, I wonder if people stop calling the low poly model that because now we have a LEGO Mario IRL

It’s very visible in Project 64 too unless you use the fancy new mods that have been made recently for the pc port

Too much effort

@@HollowRick i wasnt even hoping for that, but for something along the lines of twilight princess or windwaker, where the game was actually ported with all new textures, improved synths and quality of life changes. i guess they knew they could get away with that because these r the first time these games r available on switch and for sunshine the first time it was available outside of the gamecube, legally.

With Nintendo that would be $60 per game

@@charizardoreo tbh i would prefer an overpriced remaster that does more than a res bump and some slight improvement to some textures. its still overpriced but ur getting something out of it that u couldn't from emulation.

I would have liked that also but be warned that they would have charged you $60 per game. The Halo games were re-implemented in a new engine, much like how Bluepoint handles remakes. That pretty much involves as much work as developing a brand new game.

Yeah... especially when the fans have gone into the code and remastered the game themselves into 16:9, 60fps, 1080p+, etc. within months of getting the source code.

Nintendo fans don't really care about anything tech related, that's why they primarily game on Switch in the first place.

@@ShadowMan64572 That's certainly not the case or else BOTW wouldn't be so appreciated. The main theme of that game is the beauty that the simply graphics withhold

@@mixichip Game atmosphere and technical fidelity aren't the same thing. Technically, that game suffers from significant frame drops, low draw distance and pop in, low polygons, and blurry textures. Being made on superior hardware instead would've only done the art style justice.

@@ShadowMan64572 They are the same thing in BOTW's case since if the game had voxel-styled graphics with no other graphical effects it wouldn't have gotten the same reception. BOTW had an artistic choice to embrace its flaws through cell-shading (a technique that can actually be particularly taxing), but I still think it's got everything that other games had at its time of release - (e.i. - Dynamic shadows, physics, Screenspace reflections, ambient occlusion, dynamic lighting, day and night cycle, HD resolution, atmospheric backdrop, dynamic clouds, and much more) The game is by no means the best looking game, but leaps ahead of being just "decent"

Ah! Now I get why the release is limited. They wanted to mirror the PS5 experience of nobody being able to get one. 🙃

Nintendo doesn't care because they know their fanbase will buy anything, so the bare minimum is good enough.

Instead I'm feeling guilty because those fucking PC users always boast about playing PS3, Gamecube, Wii and other consoles in 4K 60fps. It's irritating, expecially because my family is struggling at the moment

@@mortenera4423 i know right? It's so stupid since nobody asked them, and they act like everyone has q super powerful computer. The switch version is still the cheapest version as buying a switch + game is still cheaper than buying that powerful of a pc

@jesus barrera I mean yes, but in these 4 years of switch nintendo gave us more and more masterpiece, and I don't think buying those games makes someone stupid, talking about this collection, I'm not buying it cause I've already played those games, but if I was one of those who missed these 3 masterpiece I'd be super happy to get one, is still almost 170/200 h of gameplay, and even if people who already played the game will buy it, I don't really think there's any problem, their choice to use their money like this instead of getting something else, these report don't take much time from nintendo so I don't think that things like this can slow down production so I have to "tell people to be smarter" when they just can 3 fantastic games(sorry for my English)

Control options sure would be nice...

Okay, I just got my copy today, and I kept spraying the water wrong and I was like... why is it reversed? Was it always this way? Also the voice editing in the cutscenes pulled my ear too. I played so much Sunshine I immediately noticed stuff had been monkeyed with. I'm glad you mentioned it too. That being said, I'm pretty sure it's not a big deal. And despite what DF has to say, I just beat Mario 64 on the WiiU and it was fine. I noticed no severe input lag or color issues. I know that these guys are professional nitpickers, but sometimes I wonder if they're being critical for the sake of having something to say.

i believe they have some forms of fxaa in botw under docked mode

nintendo doesnt understand tech.

anti-aliasing sounds too anti

performance

Nintendo is secretly making up for how smeary the N64’s games looked, and has been for ages. Sharpness all the way! (Well, or just that it’s a big performance saver)

I think this is like comparing between Christian Whitehead's sonic 1 and any sega compilation. Christian Whitehead's sonic 1 is a recreation of sonic 1 using his retro engine Any sega compilation only use emulation and add effect for nostalgia. In my opinion, the Christian Whitehead's sonic 1 is way better because of widescreen and 60fps.

Well they gotta save something for the next Nintendo console generation. I guarantee you there will be another remaster of these games in the future.

Not entirely true, modders do now have access to the source code thanks to leaks which is why the PC Port is so incredible. Still doesn’t excuse the lack of 1080p/60fps though

@@Kleavers And those won't be very good either.

@@mjc0961 Their engineers will have magically been able to get it to 1080 and 60FPS. And another 5-10 years after that, they'll actually do another remaster with completely new textures, 3d-models etc. Something the internet already achieved years ago.

Oh God I forgot about that

Omg

WTF I CAN'T UNSEE IT!!!!

Yeah, I've tried running it on a good PC, and it gave me a lot of trouble.

As someone who replayed through the whole game, you’re right about those issues. However, the game looks and feels significantly better at 60 FPS. It was much more responsive.

What's really a shame is that Sunshine was originally supposed to target 60, but they had to dial it back to work better on the GameCube hardware.

Although it does have the issues you've explained on dolphin I've run it at 60fps with mostly no issues.

@@ea8455 the hard problem they faced is probably time and not money

what else could we expect from modern nintendo

I would buy it for $60 if it was 4 old 3D games on emulator.

@@Matanumi I expected better effort because this is inexcusable. I'm still mad with Capcom and I'm not giving Nintendo a pass. I hope to interview someone working at Nintendo.

@@xXSN4K3E4T3R5Xx Please explain the point of your reply. Do you think I'm defending or what?

Nintendo rarely puts much effort into their nostalgia baiting, I thought we had already learned this lesson

nochtczar Zelda remakes have way more TLC than Mario ever gets. They haven’t remade a classic Mario since 2004

Which is illegal, so this is the definitive version as all others are illegal or require you to have a really powerful pc that costs more than the switch and the game, which isn't worth it

@@Mqstodon Powerful PC? Super Mario 64 runs on a browser and if you've got a PC stronger than a raspberry pi, it can emulate the rest. It's not completely illegal either. Emulators are straight up, not illegal. It's also not illegal to pop in the disc of your game and play it via emulation. Making backups, even for personal use is the grey area. But if you want to argue for the big multi billion companies that we should not be allowed to make archival copies of the media we own, go ahead, see how popular you'll be.

@@Mqstodon For the record, I made a PC that costs less than the Switch that runs all three (and infinitely more) better than a switch. Not hard at all. Not to mention, if you buy 3d all stars, you own the games, feel free to emulate them at that point without guilt, unless you're simping for Nintendo, then with slightly less guilt.

Hell, the homebrew community reverse engineered / decompiled the original source code which produces a 100% identical N64 binary, AND they ported it to PC. Nintendo themselves can't even be assed to port their own source code to the Switch? I honestly think they rushed this out just to cover up the homebrew efforts.

@@Pilotgeek Fans even ported that PC port to the Switch, in widescreen at 1080p 60fps with a fixed camera no less. There's also a 3DS, Wii U, PSP, Android, Raspberry Pi, PS2, and even an MS-DOS port.

@@jamesalexander5559 Oh my goodness, I didn't realize there was a DOS port too, I gotta go find this now.

If you have an “special” switch maybe you can play an better port

@@Pilotgeek Oh yeah I was genuinely shocked someone actually did it. They finally replaced the software renderer too so the game shouldn't run too badly now.

if you have a wii the game is 20 bucks so you can just get it on that

@@firesnakex8 I personally don't own a N64, Gamecube, Wii or Wii U. So I am pretty glad that I don't have to buy any old console, buy the games and make it work on a modern monitor. It's really convenient to have them ported for the Switch.

@@ThaMobstarr or have backwards compatibility... Yeah that.. not paying the game over 40 times with no changes at all. Smfh

They wont. They are Nintendo.

Why patch something that won't exist anymore in April?

I was thinking the exact thing too

the what?

I like not understanding what I play so for me the chinese version is better.

Idk about the tech stuff but I did see pictures of some of the textures and the Chinese port seems to have more upscaled textures. But this is from a Twitter user comparing them, so take that with a grain of salt. I still think Galaxy looks great in 3D All-Stars from the footage I’ve seen though

@@matthewbroom7448 switch is downclocked.

15 year old? Mario 64 is actually 24 years old, which makes it even CRAZIER that it only runs at 720p/30fps.

It's weird to see a game not being widescreen in 2020. (I know there are game that use 4:3 in 2020 for nostalgia. It just feels weird that super mario 64 isn't widescreen while super mario sunshine and super mario galaxy are.)

I wouldn't even care if it was still all the N64 models (minus the long distance Mario - that should have been patched out so it's always the full detail Mario). Just give me 16:9, 1080p, 60fps with no dips or pacing issues and I'll be happy.

Check out Render 96

@RmxKing x52x Everybody can. You can run Super Mario Galaxy in 1080p on a modern high-end smartphone..

🤣🤣🤣

but the original runs better, it's a past remaster of these new games

@@davion4777 Genuinely a strange editing choice for a Westerner, I don't know how that doesn't feel inherently wrong to put together lol.

And give it their Seal of Approval 😂😂

They are also still selling Pokemon with 2 slidely different versions at full price and even have them bundled costing almost double the price of one copy. The lastest games Sword and Shield also have the same DLC with slide differences so people can buy the same things twice. No company does that anymore besides Nintendo (or rather Game Freak which is also owned by Nintendo partly). I feel Nintend could have given us just 2 of these Mario games for 60 dollars and still get away with it. Personally, Galaxy 2 should have been the minimum in it to make it 4 emulated games.

@@M3rtyville dont even get me started with pkmn $/$...

@@GolfWhisky This may not be untrue, as it has been the trend in the industry. However, they are each exceptional games in a high resolution so they do have some value.

this is nintendo they have 2 top tier games one with massive technical issues the other with cleverly masked ones. they rely in the dum fuq nintendo is my childhood friend ndf crowd and the money from parents who cannot stand their business practices but respect their best games and many if the games in the middle which are lazy as fuck but still the best option for kids. i mean really what is the alternative here for ages 6-12? mediocre lego games? crash team racing? shite yooka laylee rip offs? they do it because they can top to bottom and prey upon nostalgia and brand awareness. i accept that im getting ripped off if the game suits my 7 and a half year old we get value out couch coop which other companies have abandoned. is this bundle a fair price is it lazy as shit and could they have done more the answers are obvious however the nintendo ransom holds true, i had all these launch, my son loves and has finished odyssey, he has not played these, these are the best versions and are on his switch. its the same deal with 3d world in feb. proper coop we have not played like dk tf, scam pricing but it is that. and the mario pins cool to have for him but also bullshit which is classic nintendo. will i get both and the pins yes, christmas and his birthday in march, this is nintendo how they operate. i would only have bought 2 games if it was not for my son, and likely sold it all on. but we enjoy having both and he is proud to have his switch and just loves good games. at the end of the day if you want these this is the deal and the games are great. df as always giving us the technical view of what is on offer. i won’t hold my breath for 60fps patches but honestly im not buying these to okay again i’m buying them for my son for christmas. theres not much else on switch for him. considering this will be game #13 11 of which first party.

This aren't ports, it's just emulation. Laziest way Nintendo could have done, I like their games but as a company they could die in a fire.

@@GoldSrc_ woah your comment went from 0 to 10 quick.

What's worse is, if those rumors of a patch is true, then it means they've gotten sloppy with how they release their games thinking it's just going to be fixed EVENTUALLY but not at launch. This is incredibly frustrating. I'm incredibly conflicted in getting this game because I want to be able to play these legally but this is just disappointing in aspects such as these.

@@nikkoa.3639 Rumoured patch? Is this a new patch after 1.0.1?

@@JustOneMoreRyan Fans have been having chatting about that. But probably baseless rumors.

you can't "just recompile" games that were written specifically for the (extremely different) graphics hardware of these other consoles. you have to either emulate the original graphics hardware, or completely rewrite most of the game.

I think what they gain with emulator approach is they now have a system to port all, or at least most, N64/GameCube/Wii games over to Switch

@@sirmoonslosthismind You can sometimes, if you're smart and use standard APIs and don't implement hardware specific optimizations. Nintendo... is known for hardware specific optimizations and shenanigans. It's generally why their games look SO much better than they have any right too. After all, their consoles are notoriously underpowered. But, if you use a reasonable engine and standard APIs like OpenGL, yes you can recompile and keep all your shaders.

one of the best games ever!

the fact that this has framerate issues is laughable.

That update didn't fix anything important like framerate sadly.

They should "update" the price point for this cash grab 🤣

From what I've seen, no. It's been more stable. It just has frame pacing issues.

James Porter for me it does, I've had big dips where you mentioned and in some spots in pinna park

Thanks for the info. I'm not too worried about it, I'm more concerned that I have to learn "normal" controls over inverted haha

@@JamesPorter Same. So frustrating

Being even more fair, they could've factory-upscaled every texture in the game's files by 3 or 4x using 3-point scaling to simulate the 3-point look without actually having to do it in hardware.

you really wouldnt notice the 30fps in sunshine unless mentioned. I never played it before 3d all stars, yet I didnt realise the low frames. the game was an absolute joy to play

don't forget that the switch port is 60 fps, nintendo is lazy

Stop crying

Grandpa_ _Gohan I agree, let people point out shitty business practices and stop crying when your favourite company, that doesn’t give a shit about you, gets rightly criticised

The wasn't from the leak of the source code. Fans had been working on reverse engineering the rom for years.

@@retrodad418 I doubt it was made in 6 months since rumors have been around since the begining of the year. That also isn't really Nintendo's style to do these things quickly like that. I also get the feeling they reused code from their Gamecube/Wii emulator on the Chinese Nvidia Shield since the one in all stars uses Vulkan (just like other shield games) instead of the proprietary API Nvidia made for the Switch. There's nothing wrong with reusing code though. Also, while it did take years for the rom of Mario 64 to be reverse engineered and documented into a byte for byte copy, the actual porting process only took a few months. The source code of the copy got uploaded to Github at the end last year. The DirectX12 and OpenGL ports happened in May and the Switch port, which was based off of the OpenGL port happened about a week later. I guess my real gripe is that if they're going to bother emulating the games why not give us the goodies that come with emulation like savestates and *remapping your controls*. If they're not going to do that why not port them for the better performance?

Still do. Mario Sunshine runs at 60 fps in Widescreen at 1440p here. Even at 4K/60 if i want.

V3ntilator still the the game and graphics

@@V3ntilator the funny thing about it is i literally got a one plus phone this year with all 3 of these games and more running on it for cheaper than a switch.

@@pikachu896 hm? really? when did it start?also how?

@@pikachu896 Obviously Nintendo has been cutting corners when it comes to the power of their consoles and the graphics of their games, but not once has a first party Nintendo IP been bad. Not even the sequels. BOTW was GOTY, Odyssey was a nominee, BOTW 2 will surely be a refinement of the first game, and the third party offerings are great too, like Astral Chain. Plus, the Switch is a great console that is surprisingly powerful for it's V2 battery life and double Wii-controller joycons. I think Nintendo is the best console manufacturer at this point, even since Xbox One's launch there has been controversy about the kinect, and the game sharing. Nintendo at least does something. They could have just not ported these games over at all. They didn't have to make people angry but they did just because it was easy money capitalizing off the innocence of people who hadn't gotten to play these games in the past. Alrighty that's my rant. I still prefer the PC as a platform

@@gu3z185 Mario Tennis Ultra Smash. Vanilla Mario Kart 8. Splatoon.

Keep in mind this is not me saying Nintendo is bad, I'm just saying they're just as equally good and equally wrong as other companies, but people keep giving them this aura of perfection they've lacked for years now.

@@gu3z185 You mention Kinect because you're out of touch and still stuck in the past, typical sign of a Nintendrone. 🤣

@@rjspires they aren't interchangable terms though, I don't know why people, and especially competent studios, are throwing the terms around without clarity.
