    Weird, it looks great on mine. Might be a different version though.

    I was wondering, if the biggest challenge to port to PS1 is RAM, maybe Sega Saturn is possible? After all, it has cartridges with 2 and 4 MB of RAM.

    If I'm not mistaken the Sonic Z-Extreme homebrew needs one of these to work.

    Anyway, just for curiosity, we already have Super Mario 64 port for Dreamcast, PS2 and PSP, so far the PSP and Dreamcast were the weakest consoles to receive the port, but both are not weaker than the Nintendo 64 after all.




    The video for the PS2 and Dreamcast version are from an old version, I can confirm that the Dreamcast port is already working way better, they even made a mod to run at 60fps on it.

    The DSi has 16 MB of RAM, the same as the Dreamcast, I don't think it's impossible, but I think the CPU speed and the DSi's resolution would be quite problematic, but it would be an extremely interesting thing to see a Super Mario 64 DSi Port.

    note that I said DSI not DS a ds port would be a huge pain in the ass to get at least 15-20fps in. Also the ds has a slower cpu so...

    Is that because of how the game is built? I mean like asking the chips directly to render some stuff and play certain sounds rather than using all samples?

    I do have to note it is actually the DSi in DSi mode. The DSi having a bit more grunt than the baseline DS.

    So... not only the Nintendo DS but even the Nintendo 64 got a port.


    If Zeebo wins a port before PS1 I will be very angry.

    Again I should note it was the DSi, not the DS. Two different devices with different specs.

    That video is less of a port from what I can see and compiling the original decompilation, and then again with a few mods which people were doing in fairly short order.

    The DS already ran Mario 64 back in 2004. https://www.mariowiki.com/Super_Mario_64_DS
    Have people really forgotten already?

    I can't believe we've reached a point in the future where it's possible to play an N64 game on an N64.

    To be fair the PC has emulated the PC for many years now.
