Would you mind elaborating on what's optimized between v7 and the upcoming v8 port? In other words, is it a Big Deal? I've been holding off on a v7 SM64 replay. It's clear this fanmade version is going to be superior to the upcoming retail release.

Not sure what all will be new in v8, but don't feel like you have to wait for the next release. v7 is already great and your save will probably be compatible with v8 (The previous versions kept your save at least).

In short, If you want to play SM64 just do it! No point in waiting for the next release. It's already a huge improvement over playing in an emulator.

I'm currently playing the port and I have to say: It's really well done!

Have played the first 4 worlds so far an seen very little bugs in Verion7 so far:

  • Bob-omb Battlefield: one of the canons (the ones shooting bubles) on the mountain is not visible

  • Jolly Roger Bay: After the ship is lifted back to the surface a star is revealed on the gound of the sea. It's not accessible due to the bubbles which push you away. (It's only accessible after you get the green cap). The animations/objects of the bubbles seem to be missing in version 7 though. It seems like you are beeing pushed away by an invisible wall when you try to reach the star.

Are these things which are going to be fixed in future versions?

You can report them on the jits discord, the dev team watches the mario 64 discussion channel there for bugs or suggestions

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
