/vr/ - Retro Games

I pooped on em.

>>7112410
Anyone got a quick rundown of the cool shit that was found?

>>7112418
nothing, absolutely nothing.

>>7112418
Yoshi actually has a cloaca, and it smells pretty good.

OMG WE FOUND AN UNUSED TILE FROM POKEMON DIAMOND :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>7112418
off the top of my head:
lotta Super Mario World proto stuff
lotta Star Fox 2 proto stuff
some early build Ocarina of Time stuff
Super Castlevania IV prototype with about 6 full levels, and 3 unfinished ones, and a totally different, earlier version of the soundtrack and one completely new track, probably the highlight of the gigaleak for me.
Then there was that weird "Super Donkey" proof-of-concept game that mostly has very debug-like levels but a fully playable character, uses some Yoshi's Island assets so many theorize this could be some sort of lost game that eventually morphed into YI.

>>7112410
Pretty much nothing else to find so it died out.
So much GC stuff.

All the interesting stuff had been disclosed and documented so there's not much more to discuss, just gonna have to wait for another leak.

>>7112436
How much of the leaks were uncovered before they gave up? 50% 75% All of it?
>>7112438
But what about preserving gaming history? Does the rest of the stuff not matter?

>>7112458
/vr/ is not the last bastion of game preservation.

>>7112656
yeah definitely not, ever since the damn zoomers ruined our comfy gen 5 cutoff, those handsome devils

>>7112418
Some fun game boy games

>>7112410
I stopped posting them because I got bored of the lack of leaks and most of the shit being pokeshit

I don't think /vr/ gives a shit about the stuff I've been doing with the n64 sources

>>7112821
I gave a shit, anon. And I want you to know that.

>>7112432
You forgot a pre-overhaul Yoshi's Island builds.

>no new thread was made for less then a week
>"WHAT HAPPENED TO THE THREADS!!!"
Really?

>>7112656
It's not the last bastion but you could do worse, 4chan is basically always the source on these leaks, whether that be the actual leaking or digging through them, the rest of the internet is just too cucked to fuck with them.
>>7112687
Pokemon Picross was the highlight for me, would've played the shit out of that if they'd released it.

>>7112421
You will never be a real woman

>>7113278
Is it opposite day?

>>7112410
Were further Zelda 64 assets leaked? I just remember Stalfox, Darknut, Land Octorok and the entirety of the pre-release Ganon's Castle been leaked.

>>7113064
I haven't seen them in months. Link me the thread archives then.

>>7113884
no

>>7112410
>>7112413
I took a leak on them

>>7113917
here's the last thread: >>7083480
(https://desuarchive.org/vr/thread/7083480))

>>7112821
So much pokeshit and still no build of Capsule Monsters? ):

>>7113928
You single, anon?

>>7112410
it was not so giga

>>7112458
>>7112656
wut. the leaks weren't being "uncovered", they were posted, and then analysed. analysing the leaks is not the same thing as game preservation.

Thank god that shit is over. It was one of the worst things to happen to this board pre rule change.

>>7112410
I'm surprised there were so many threads regurgitating the same shit over and over. Seems natural that they died out.

>>7114891
fuck off jorno

>>7114894
Momentum went on for a long time, but yeah the well kind of dried up when the leaks were getting small.

I hope the "2TB of leaks" narrative is true and in the future we get more

>>7116318
Some files had the date 12/25/2020

I look forward that.

>>7114891
No, that was just /v/
>leak thread
>every thread bombarded with useless posts about SOUNDTRACK FOR THIS THREAD WHAT THING U WANT LEAK NEXT
>retards reposting already discovered content
>Luigi found in SM64
>next 3 hours of threads are nothing but OMG LE L IS LE REAL LE XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

>>7112432
>>7112914
And the raw Star Fox 64 voice recordings.

Friendly reminder not to engage with anyone implying Shigesato Ito had any involvement in the development of a Zelda game. This ham-fisted false narrative is being pushed by an individual who wants to create “lore” where there is none. This is absurd for the following reasons:

1. In this interview https://www.glitterberri.com/developer-interviews/miyamoto-horii-discussion Shigeru Miyamoto mentions that he’s worked with Shigesato Itoi on the story of “games”. Note that Japanese has no plural and he’s likely just referring to Mother, as this interview took place in 1989. He goes on to state that “The stories of Mario and Zelda titles have always been supplemental to the actual gameplay.” Does this also imply that Itoi worked on the story of a Mario game? Of course not. Miyamoto is essentially name-dropping his friendship with a prolific writer and pop culture figure to another industry friend. It is not explicitly stated what the two collaborared on. (But it’s obviously Mother)

2. Shigesato Itoi was an incredibly successful writer of several best selling books. The notion that he would not only write the very minimal story and dialog of a Zelda game, but that it would be scrapped and no credit or acknowledgement of his involvement would be made, is an utterly moronic idea. Someone of Itoi’s notability would clearly be used in the marketing of the game, and his ideas used in every aspect of the game design, as in the case of Mother. He would certainly be credited for his work, whether used or unsused as well.

3. Zelda A Link to the Past already has a script credit: Kensuke Tanabe. At the time, a member of R&D4 who had worked on several Mario games, he would be the likely choice to produce the script for a Zelda game, not a best selling author and copywriter.

Thank you for your time and I hope this puts that nonsense to bed. Please don’t spread gay cancer any further.

best part was know Shigesato Ito involvement in the development of a Zelda game.

This was from Sim City SNES right?

>>7112410
maybe because there is decent documentation now

>>7112418
Found code that Luigi was actually in Super Mario 64
Uncompressed voice lines in F Zero X and Star Fox 64
Bunch of artwork and sprites that were used in betas
Yoshi 3D model in Star Fox SNES
Beta version of the Hyrule Temple song from Melee

Those were the biggest things that I recall.

>>7118071
That Yoshi in Star Fox is particularly interesting because it might be related to the early development of Croc.

>>7118071
> Uncompressed Star Fox 64 voice lines

WHY THE FUCK DID THEY RE-RECORD EVERYTHING FOR SF64 3D IF THEY HAD THAT THE WHOLE TIME

>>7118174
They couldn't stop cooming to uncompressed Slippy.

>>7112410
probably waiting until December for bigger shit
also Crapcom leaks too the attention

>>7116435
that same retard was in Kirby threads trying to force about this conspiracy about Shimomura

weeks prior, people in Japan found him and found out he's alive and well.

>>7118071
>Beta version of the Hyrule Temple song from Melee
shit, when are we getting any Smash betas?

>>7112659

Fat people aren't handsome.

I was seaching this thread is specific:
https://youtu.be/VEE277-dLOs
But, I did not find anything

>>7118071
Old Zelda 64 assets from the A+B period, such as Ganon's Castle (Early), Darknut, Stalfos, Octorok as well as a 1997 Sword on A period version of Kokiri Forest.

>>7112410
>grrr my precious cancerous general went away
good faggot

Not a Furry™, but the porn image I saw based on this was funny

>>7112413
>>7113928
Based.

>>7116335
F-Zero X too

>>7112410
Leaker stopped leaking.
Most surface level stuff ended up being found anything else left to find we are missing tools/information/assets.
For example with SF2 most of the stuff that could be found and restored has pretty much been done by now however there are certain things we can see from unused assets and old code backups which cant be restored into any of the builds we have as they are too new however we cant put them into the older builds because the one person who has source for those earlier builds has only shared it with like 2 other people

>>7112421
Wrong gaywad

>>7118071
>Beta version of the Hyrule Temple song from Melee
what the fuck I didn't know about that one
when
where

>>7112418
People managed to build a debug build of Starfox 1 as well as restore the prototype title screen
