Ahh yes, MVG made a video about the N64 version of Resident Evil 2. Really impressive stuff. it's amazing how it could fit into a 64mb cartridge and barely lose any content, other than compressed FMV, graphics and sounds.

Who'd ever thought that I would reply to this thread someday…*Ahem*

Thanks for mentioning this video and thanks @Stealphie for bringing up this topic! It was interesting to watch. The clever workarounds for getting the full motion video, textures, speech and music into a 64MB cart are impressive – to say the least.
And the only thing that is repeated over and over and over again when talking about early 3D games is: "Has aged badly!!11!!!"

I recommend watching "Coding Secrets" by Jon Burton for more clever tricks for achieving seemingly impossible things and pushing the limits.
