/vr/ - Retro Games

I'm suspicious of this link, but for argument's sake let's say it's real.

In which case the only Rare game is DK64. No surprise there; we all predicted it.

>no smash
what did they mean by this

>>4387919
...but why are the fingertips fuzzy? Looks like a poor shoop.

thats the shitties list yet. honestly im insulted...

>1080° Snowboarding
>Wave Race 64
>Excitebike 64
>Mario Golf
>Sin and Punishment
>Mario Tennis
>Paper Mario
>Pokémon Snap
>Bomberman 64

what the fuck is this.
half the titles i never even heard of and half are the typicals that should be included like starfox, pk stadium, mario party, zeldas and mario 64

>>4387931
>half the titles i never even heard of
wat

>Daily Star

It's a British tabloid rag, but I guess it's a better source than 'some dude on twitter/4chan'. I fucking hope it's wrong, that list SUCKS. Literally the Wii virtual console's lineup + DK64. Who could honestly give a fuck?

>>4387919
>no smash brothers
>no pilot wings
>Snap but no stadium 1/2 (odd since stadium is multiplayer and snap isnt)
>no somewhat unique title like OoT Master Quest although I guess that is what Sin and Punishment kinda covers.
>2 controllers

No Rare makes sense because of licensing and I could see nintendo doing this but I cant get past no Super Smash, makes no sense to not include that. It's seriously in any top N64 game list and what most people would buy additional controllers for. probably fake

>No Cruis'n USA/World
>No Goemon
>No Mischief Makers
>No Pokemon Stadium/Puzzle League, only fucking Snap
>No Star Wars games
>No Turok trilogy, hell no FPS at all
>No ISS64
>No Pilotwings 64
>No Smash

Unless there's online play, this shit is worthless.

>>4387919
This is nothing but speculation as if this was real it would of been 30 + 1, Smash 64 would be in and it would of have Banjo Kazooie & Banjo Tooie in it as Microsoft is not in the Plug n' Play business plus others.

The extra game would of been F-Zero X Expansion Pack, not something already out in the VC.

And the only reason why the SNES Classic only had 20 + 1 games in it was because NERD was adsorbed into NERD SAS and it had to be finished by EPD10 (long story short Nintendo shut down the Tokyo unit in April of this year and adsorbed it back into Kyoto, EPD8 was EPD Tokyo 2 when EPD10 was EPD Tokyo 1), this will not be the case again.

The source is notoriously unreliable, so it's very likely fake.

No Smash Bros. would definitely mean a no-buy from me. Smash would be my main incentive for getting one of these. I can already play OoT on GameCube.

Also
>Majora's Mask
and it would probably emulate at 10 fps :^)

Yeah I don't see Ninty ramping up production of 40 dollar controllers that break themselves anytime soon.

>>4387964
Banjo is still Rare which is still microsoft, they sell those games digitally on XBLA like perfect dark, banjo, and on the XBONE as Rare replay which has all the others. Why would they make competition for themselves. There is a reason why Banjo and other games are not on the Wii VC or were taken off.

Very unlikely that there will be Kazooie/tooie, diddy kong racing, perfect dark, jet force gemini, blast corps, KI Gold. The only reason they can have DK64 if anything is probably because it is a completely Nintendo property with Nintendo characters and was just made by rare.

Definitely no goldeneye since the rights and licenses, and likeness of the actors for that are completely fucked and all over the place.

def fake though, they would be out of their minds if there was no smash 64. and good point, I was thinking master quest but they will probably just shoehorn in some 64DD stuff to make it a selling point

N64 and its emulation is fucking shit and Nintendo wouldn't even bother developing its own emulator for a meme machine

>>4387953
Other than Pod Racers and Smash and maybe Stadium I'm not surprised most of those didn't end up on the system due to licensing and some being downright unpopular.

>>4387980
Goemon and ISS64 are Konami IPs, and Bomberman is there so there should be Konami games (Goemon is a fan favorite for n64 fans after all, and great adventure is a great co-op option)
Cruis'n is 100% Nintendo for what it looks, since Cruis'n Blast was licensed by Nintendo and USA was in Wii VC.
I can see trouble with Turok, MM (is the Squeenix/Treasure thing still unresolved?) and Star Wars. But atleast they should add a fps, since Bethesda is slightly more friendly with them, why not Doom 64 or Quake?

>>4387919
sin and punishment? i doubt it, great game but it isnt that known and never released out of japan

>>4387976
Minecraft says hi and DK64 has Jetpac.

>YFW F-Zero X has the Expansion Kit

>>4387919
The source is from the SNES Classic subreddit. And in that very same thread, someone explained that they have a similar listing for GBA games and it's been around for a while.

Modern day journalism.

I'm guessing even if it gets hacked, it will be hit and miss when it comes to injecting ROMs

>>4387926
Trolling bloggers.

>>4388046
>>4388046
in that same thread it's pointed out that "It's just manuals for the virtual console games on Wii-U"

>>4387919

>no simcity 64

blunder of the millennium

>>4387953
They won’t have a game that requires a handful of other games on another platform to be fully functional.

>>4387978
Actually, taking an HLE approach to a limited number of popular games would work pretty well for such a product.

UltraHLE could run Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time seemingly perfectly on a Pentium III. It didn't matter that it wasn't hardware-accurate as long as it did what it was supposed to do.

N64 emulation is hard and requires a lot more development than Nintendo did for then nes/snes classic. To get any 20 games on it all running properly would be more work than they feel like doing. Next one will probably be Gameboy or something.

>Mario Party 2

The spinning joystick mini game was THAT bad to pretend the original game never existed?

If Nintendo actually does this it would be throwing away whatever shred of dignity they had left. There is literally no point to owning any of these machines above having a PC, but for Nintendo to stand by and say you can play N64 games on a cheap emulation box would be a new low.

>>4388287
do you want to wear out the thumbstick on the new controller in a day too?

>>4388287
Those mini-games may have murdered more N64 controllers than any other title.

>>4388290
Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

Also, I'd take an emulator from Nintendo (the company that knows absolutely everything about the N64) developed to run a handful of games perfectly, over an open-source community project that kinda-sorta runs those same games.

>>4387932
He wasn't even born when those games were released, give the kid a break.
>>4387976
>Very unlikely that there will be... diddy kong racing
What? It's literally a Nintendo property, there was even a DS port where all they needed to remove was Conker.
>>4388027
Not to mention Nintendo and MS have a weird relationship when it comes to portables; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_games_owned_by_Microsoft_Studios_on_Nintendo_platforms

I'm sure they'd be willing to play nice if Nintendo talked to them about putting some Rare games on a N64 mini. Consumers are satisfied with Nintendo's product and they know they can get more classic Rare titles on the XB1.

>>4388290
>cheap
Nigga we all know this song and dance, it'll be over $100 off the shelf and scalpels will hoard them like fucking dragons with bitches and gold.

N64 Mini would be garbage. There's no decent emulator for the N64 and even Nintendo's own emulators kinda suck with random slowdowns.

I seriously doubt they'll make one

>>4387919
They'd have to either go through the rom and remove all references, or actually license out the name from Kawasaki to put WaveRace on the thing.

Calling bullshit either way.

>>4387919
That's awful. God damn I knew they wouldn't be able to get a lot of actually popular games, but I thought they'd do better than this...

>>4388309
> and even Nintendo's own emulators kinda suck with random slowdowns.

Some parts of DK64 are borderline unplayable on Wii U VC due to the lack of slowdown.

>>4388304
It's not a "weird" relationship. Microsoft has no interest in the handheld hardware market so they don't consider publishing games for Nintendo handhelds to be a conflict of interest.

>>4388316
They did that with the Wii VC release.

>>4388329
More like issues with lag.

>>4387919
Fake News.

Those manuals were already there since forever and are infact like the article states later for the WiiU VC games...

>>4388305
I paid less than 80 europoors for the snes mini off the shelf

>>4387919

Meh

Nah. It'd be the double whammy of dealing not only with the Microsoft lawyers, but also the lawyers tangled up in the James Bond franchise too. it's just not happening.

>>4387928
>why are the fingertips fuzzy? Looks like a poor shoop.
Because its a shop you fucking retard

>>4387919
This would be the perfect list of games. If i miracle happens the N64 Mini would easily win Gen 8.

>Snap but no stadium 1/2
I agree Snap is shit but Stadium 1 and 2 are worthless unless you plan on playing the Mini Games and using Rentals

>>4387919
I hope that list isn't true because there are more games i would like the N64 Mini to have like Resident Evil 2 and Rayman 2

>>4387919
>No GoldenEye or Ogre Battle 64

>>4388290
The NES and SNES sold well so why wouldn't they do a N64 Mini? Don't be stupid

>>4387953
>playing pokémon stadium with rentals only

lame tbqh

Needs moar Harvest Moon 64 for comfy reasons.

>>4389334
Since RBY and GS are on 3ds VC, Nintendo could make some connectivity to those games I guess

>>4387919
Why not finish N64 Mother 3, or Ura Zelda? Pull a Starfox 2 and give the fans some unfinished content

>>4388293
this will never not make me laugh and I haven't even played mario party

I'd love the N64 mini to have an unreleased game on the west translated for the first time like Sin & Punishment, Custom Robo or even Robopon I dunno

>>4387934
>It's a British tabloid rag, but I guess it's a better source than 'some dude on twitter/4chan'.
who do you think they got it from?

>>4387978
Really? Because i remember running a N64 emu nearly a decade ago that ran everything i threw at it without issues and at resolutions of my monitor at the time

>>4389352
Mario Party has the reputation of ruining joysticks, but don't underestimate this game's ability to do it. 8 or 9 in-game years of HM64 will loosen one up quite nicely.

>>4389557
Well.... yeah, I mean you're not wrong. Is this important?

>>4389581
It is if you want to maintain a tight joystick!

>>4389584
Well I mean yes if you want your consoles to be in perfect factory condition, never play them.

>>4387934
>t I guess it's a better source than 'some dude on twitter/4chan'

This is the same sort of hack journalism that's been screaming that Jennifer Aniston is pregnant every week for going on 20 years now.

>>4389607
Try as I might, she's just infertile...

>>4389081
the problem isn't that they CAN'T produce enough units to meet demand, it's that they deliberately WON'T for completely stupid non-reasons that materially benefit nobody but ebay scalpers.

>>4387919
nope. never playing analogue stick destroying mario party again. ever. i swear, they only made those games to sell more controllers.

>>4387947
>>4389320
Stadium 1&2 would only be worthwhile if you can connect with your save from the 3DS eshop versions of RBY/GSC, which sounds like a near impossibility. Otherwise they are worthless. Using rentals is garbage.

>>4389429
Earthbound 64 NEVER EVER

I understand no rare, but no Smash? What's the fucking point?

And it's not like you can just add the omissions yourself like you can with the other two minis, unless this thing is some miracle machine that can emulate all N64 games perfectly, which I doubt.

I seriously hope this is not the true list.

>>4389429

Starfox 2 was basically finished.

MOTHER 3 and Ura Zelda were still barely in production. I'm convinced Ura Zelda is a myth.

They would probably include Ocarina of Time Master Quest though.

>>4389557

I feel like they could fix this little design flaw without pissing people off

>No Smash
>exactly NINETEEN games
Yeah, no shit this thing is fake.

>>4389916
>Starfox 2 was basically finished.
So was 12 Tales.

>>4390025
Starfox 2 was also not Rareware.

>>4387919
Nah, I'm good. I'm happy with my actual N64.

>>4388292
The newer thumbsticks will use metal parts and have a rubberized tip to avoid any of this from happening again.
>>4388298
Fixed, as The Pokemon Company would want their own plug n' play system.

>Bomberman 64 is on it
>Trash Bros isn't

Holy fuck day 1 purchase!

>>4390035
But Microsoft is not in the plug n' play business.

>>4390061

I'm not sure what kind of point you are trying to make.

>>4388298
>>4390059
Too much Mario Party

>>4390095
>Microsoft is not in the handheld business.
Rare makes GBA & DS games.
>Microsoft is not in the plug n' play business.
Rare games show up in the N64 Classic.

>>4390115
You can never have too much N64 Mario Party.

>>4390117
>Rare games show up in the N64 Classic.
There IS no N64 Classic. OP's source is a tabloid and shouldn't be trusted.

>>4390152
>There IS no N64 Classic.
Yet.
>OP's source is a tabloid and shouldn't be trusted.
More like speculation but true.

>>4387953
Well the SNES mini didn't have a single beat em up game so I wouldn't be surprised at all if they didn't include a single FPS game for the N64 mini. Its impossible for them to please everyone anyways.

>no wrestling games
>no doom 64

>>4390651
See >>4390059

The WWE licence is very expensive and this has to be T at max.

>>4389620
It's either underproduce and sell them all or overproduce and have them rotting on shelves because they think anyone will actually buy them thanks to people like /vr/ teaching their family members how to load emulators on their phones/building them raspberry pis to spite Nintendo for thinking of reselling their games.

>All these people wanting Pokemon Stadium

You idiots realize that you'd just be stuck with the shitty Rental Pokemon, right? A MAJOR reason for playing Stadium was seeing your own Pokemon in 3D and fighting your friends on a big screen.

>>4387919
>Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

>Still not kirby superstar
>wasn't then
>still not now

>why a second helping for a emulation of this game?

>>4391313
Sorry but Kirby Superstar isnt that good
Dream land / adventure / 64 are all superior

>>4391310
>You idiots realize that you'd just be stuck with the shitty Rental Pokemon, right?

I'm assuming Nintendo would add support for their Pokemon eBank, or whatever that shit is called that allows you to transfer Pokemon across Virtual Console releases.

>>4387919
If that's indicative of the lineup, I'm definitely skipping this one. Sure, most of the good games on the 64 were first party titles, but if they can't snag a handful of third party games, then uh, fuck it man.

>>4389331
You are RETARDED.

>>4387919
Heads up for non-Brits - the Daily Star is not a reliable source. They're about as trustworthy as asking a drunk homeless guy

So like the actual N64, it has nogaemz?

>>4390173
So let me get this straight - a tabloid says Nintendo already has an N64 classic up and coming despite being notorious liars, production and distribution of SNES classic currently ongoing, and that has Rare games on it despite obvious licensing issues with a competitor who still sells products with those games, and you believe it.

>>4391346
You are saying Nintendo should stop making Mini versions of their own Consoles despite proving to sell well. Don't be stupid kid

>>4391336
Since the Bank doesn't work like that and they'd have to have it connect to the internet, that's completely out.

>people want smash
>there's only room for two controller ports

>>4391398
>Heads up for non-Brits - the Daily Star is not a reliable source. They're about as trustworthy as asking a drunk homeless guy
If you read the article instead of the OP message you will realize that they say that the list of the games is for the WiiU Virtual Console.

I find funny that a lot of people here are complaining that Stadium can't be in the n64 classoc because of the Transfer Pak thing, when there was a Stadium thread were everyone was calling plebs to those using their own pokemon.
I guess the system can have a connection with the 3ds to transfer the save data of the VC releases of RBY/GS and the console emulates the transfer pak feature using the save.
Or just use a special edition of the pokebank.

>>4391310

I just want the mini games.

>>4391313

64 is best Kirby though. Power combination is lit, and you don't have infinite flying so you are actually forced to platform in a fucking platformer.

Superstar isn't all that good, it's got a lot of dumb flashy moves to make it feel more like a beat em up but they add nothing to the game.

I don't know what people see in Superstar, Adventure, and 64 are clearly best Kirby games.

>>4391527
>Adventure and 64 are best Kirbys
Word.
Dreamland 2 & 3 is also a personal favorite

>>4391475

Why would you assume there are only two controller ports? Because it's shrunken down?

You know the SNES mini has a panel that flips open right? It looks ugly but it gets the job done.

besides, going beyond two player multiplayer was a mistake

>>4391530

Dreamland 3 would be 10/10 if it wasn't for the weird lag in Kirby's jumps, and the complete loss of momentum when you start flying.

>>4390749
>and this has to be T at max

That is lame as fuck. I'm pretty sure they won't be doing one though like some here said.

>>4391310
This is true. A large part of the game is also being able to play those Pokemon games on the tv as well. I loved Stadium because of this.

>>4387919

>No Blast Corps
>No Gex 3

This has failed on all fronts and will be burned from my memory.

>>4391614
Yes, they will, as the sticks here will be MUCH more durable and with a rubber tip.

That is if it ever comes out.

>>4391435
Not with that source, but it's obvious we are getting a N64 Classic with the games >>4390059
bought up.

Also Microsoft is not in the plug n' play business.
>>4391310
Hence >>4390059

>>4391624

>snowboard kids

You kust know the Super rare game will be a DD one.

>>4387919
Wow, 3/4 of all the games on the system!

>>4391532
Two in the front, two more in the memory expansion slot.

>>4389320
>>4389334
Rentals are fun for fucking around with friends.

If they were to make one, it'd be neat for them to include Japanese games like N64 Animal Crossing.

>>4387919
>No harvest moon 64

>>4389317
>Conker's Bad Fur Day
Rated M. Never gonna make the cut.

>>4392812
Also a Rare game so probably not going to make the cut.

>>4389320
Snap is a unique masterpiece that a brainlet such as yourself can't comprehend.

>>4392930
>unique
PC Engine did it first.

>>4392589

You know that's not going to happen, right?
The only time I could see it happening is if they ever make it all the way to GBA classic edition. The only way to play Mother 3 will be to get one of those things. It'd be a blood bath trying to get one.

On that note, what would the japanese list of games look like for N64 classic?

>>4392823
Microsoft is not in the plug n' play business so yes it can.
>>4393768
But Hal did it better.
>>4393830
>On that note, what would the japanese list of games look like for N64 classic?
Same as the west as there is nothing about the different in all 3 major regions.

We are getting the same games this time around.

>>4395149

You don't think maybe they'll get Animal Forest while we get something they didn't care for in Japan? Maybe a rareware game?

It pains me that they're decreasing the number of games from console to console. 30 games for the N64 would easily fill 90% of its worthwile content, more if you take it would be NTSC-U only.

I got the nes and snes classics but N64 had 2 good games 5 ok games and the rest where ugly awful game and all except mario 64 have aged poorly

>>4397551
For this it's 30 and that is the plain.

>bomberman 64
Nice.

It's a shame Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon isn't included. That game is so wonky on emulators.

>Prepare my system so I can use a CRT TV with emulators on my PC

>"Time to emulate N64, surely at this resolution I will have no issues with angrylion and my computer!"

Well maybe this is the answer to my p--

>HDMI

Seems like I have to buy the fucking N64.

>>4397578

Mario 64 aged poorly too, speedrunners just have a boner for all the retarded tricks you can do in it.

>>4387931
Every game you greentexted except Pokémon snap is great, though. And Pokémon Snap is still decent

>>4395149
Rare Replay is basically the only exclusive that the XBOne has, and it's one of the few ways to play Rare's N64 games on a modern tv without emulation glitches. Microsoft is never giving up those games

>>4398148
It's been 2 years and only 2 (3 if you count Jetpac) out of the 30 games are on the N64 Classic; Rare Replay will be fine.

>>4387953
They should include Turok for Retro Studio's sake

It would be hype if they added twelve tales, but I bet the "never released" game would be animal forest in english or F-Zero X Expansion Kit

>>4398437

I don't think Starfox 2 is setting a precedent for unreleased games being included on these plug 'n play consoles.

You can't declare a pattern if it's between two points, much less one point.

I think the more likely scenario is that they include Ocarina of Time, Master Quest.

>>4387934
Twitter is the most reliable source for news you fucking rapist.

>>4398437
Mother 64 confirmed

>>4389620
>that materially benefit nobody but ebay scalpers.
It benefits Nintendo as well because it causes people who'd otherwise have second doubts to buy their products as soon as possible in fear of them running out of stock extremely fast.

>>4389082
It's impossible because the game is one huge copyright clusterfuck between multiple companies. That's why the awesome looking remaster for the 360 never got released and instead we got Call of Bond Modern Eyewear.

Wow, I opened this thread & all I can hear is autistic screeching.....
