Someone clearly left the faucet on, because we've got even more leaks. Yesterday's "Gigaleak", which contained in-development betas and source codes for Super Nintendo games has been added upon in a "Gigaleak II". Supposedly, a new file being distributed contains source codes for Nintendo 64 titles, including Super Mario 64, a corrupted version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Animal Forest, and much more, which is yet to be fully discovered.

A direct source/download link to the contents of this leak cannot be shared, as they are warez.

I believe there's a link/instructions in the PDF for the leak (can't link obviously), but this is the cvs software (legal):
Binary: https://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/cvs/binary/stable/x86-woe/

Cool! Tomorrow I'll have a nice day.

Sooo....Are the Zelda files usable for a native Switch Port? Asking for...you know... a friend.

Mother 64 incoming

There are a LOT of steps between the stuff leaked and a port on any device.

 

[Captain_N]

Damn...
I can't believe the 3DS is more stable than the source of these leaks.

Wario is love, Wario is life.

Wario is life, but dat beta tho. It has thesuper mario kart beta i was looking for. The one with the different tracks. Some guy has the prototype cart with that version on it and refused to release its contents......Now he can fuck off. its been leaked.

Yup. But to actually answer their question; I'd be surprised if OoT and MM and some of the more popular games don't get ported to the Switch now that the source code has been leaked.

Son of a bitch...

The game was rushed to compete with Crash Bandicot; so two player mode had to be scrapped. That's also why the castle is unfinished.

The DS version is the closest we will ever get to finished game.

No, a majority of the files in the zelda repositories are dummy files

 

[raxadian]

Anyway; as seen by how rough "L" model is, he was removed very early in development. Simply put with Crash Bandicot being a serius contender they rushed the game so they cut anything that could save time and still leave a good enough game.

Thanks for the share

Would love to see a native port of Wario Land 4 on the vita!

 

[The Real Jdbye]

It's starting to get interesting now. What's next? GameCube source code? Full source code of Paper Mario, Super Mario Sunshine, Zelda Wind Waker etc.?

I would just love to see native ports of a lot of the GameCube and Wii library. Since Nintendo won't give us GameCube/Wii VC on the Switch and Dolphin is still pretty slow...

I will start feeling bad for Nintendo if it gets to Wii or later.

I know it already got to DS but I am talking about home consoles.

Nobody with any sense is going to use the leaks to port games to other platforms. That's why we have the decomp project. Sidesteps some of the legal gray areas.

Some stuff in the previous leak was dated 2010. Which means the person still worked at Nintendo at that point and might very well have had access to GameCube and Wii source code. Plus one of the earlier leaks had Wii OS and SDK stuff in it.
They would be rather large though compared to the older games so who knows if the person dumped all of it even if they had access to it.

Funny thing is, if any of this is used to further emulation development, it would technically be illegal. Hopefully, that doesn't happen, as I want emulation to stay legal.

How would you prove that, though?

I mean, we got Mario 64 ported to the PC. I'm not saying one person is going to take in all the effort, go from step 1 to step 859. But I'm still confident that some of these will end up being ported to the switch, regardless, after some time. And like I said, it happened before with Mario 64, so I'm sure it'll happen here. That was from the source code. You seem to underestimate what people would be willing to do. There's a reason the Mario 64 port isn't just thrown around. It's illegal. I don't understand what you're trying to say. Regardless, it will happen from the source code, just as it did with Mario 64.

 

[Kioku]

You do realize that Nintendo doesn't take this stuff lightly, right? The only reason the SM64 decomp hasn't been taken down is because no copyrighted code was used. It's all original. They can and will use their resources to rip ports and homebrew apart to find violations.

 

[dAVID_]

is there a higher resolution copy of the L is Real star sign in the leak, havent looked at it myself, would be cool to see what it actually said

Someone on one of the /v/ threads said that they had found uncompressed (higher-resolution) textures, but he didn't specify the directory and didn't follow up with the supposed "L is real 2401" plaque.
Let's be real, it's probably gibberish.

Are we still talking about Mario 64? The one that was ported? Because from what I read with the ports, it's literally built from the source code. If no copyrighted code was used, then how do we have what we are literally hearing and seeing from the gameplay? And regardless, it's still their game. So no, that wouldn't be dodging any legal reprocussions.
