I didn't see any theads about it. Now it can be ported natively to most platforms.
This is exactly what I hope happens to the GB and GBA pokemon games.

I'm waiting for someone to do this with Super Street Fighter II X or KOF 98.

KOF 98 isn't perfect. It's got a pretty lop-sided tier list. UM is better but isn't free for netplay.

So does this mean LTTP has been reverse engineered?

>> No.9223710

>>9223694
Yes.
Which is different from decompiled.

So is it possible to make four swords in this engine?

>>9223710
How come? I thought it was decompiled and the assembly code converted to C.

>> No.9223805

>>9223728
I don't know why that was the case but if you're asking what the difference is reverse engineered means that somebody had to program it from scratch in as close as what they think the original was.

fuck that, let's go all out and have it render the entire map with free zoom, similar to Castlevania Harmony of Despair

shouldn't be too hard to rebalance things around a mostly contiguous overworld, since we can do that now too. as little tampering as possible, really.

I just called it "Zelda." Nothing reminds me more of my childhood than LTTP screenshots. This was the game that taught me how to read before I ever hit kindergarten. I'd bug my dad to read the player's guide to me and would work toward reading it myself as well as the text boxes. Probably finished this game like 500 times in my life.

I called it Super Zelda. Other people just said Zelda, or Zelda for the super. Never in my life have I heard anyone say Zelda 3.

Super Zelda kinda makes sense, since it's the Super Nintendo one, like Super Metroid, but Zelda 3 isn't even outlandish, because it was the third one.
I remember a bunch of Super Nintendo ROMs we downloaded back in the early 2000s had simplified titles like that, Zelda 3, Metroid 3, etc (though we only ever said Super Metroid). SNES emulating was really big in my circle back then because it was free videogames and many of us never had a real SNES, or never had all these games we could now check out for free.

Man, emulation was so magical back then.

Super Metroid also happens to be Metroid 3, but nobody calls it that.

Super Mario World is also known as Super Mario Bros 4, that's even part of its proper title in Japan, but again nobody calls it that.

With Link to the Past, I think Nintendo opted to drop the numbering in Zelda titles because they didn't want LttP to appear to be a sequel to Zelda II, they very little in common.

For old ROM file name conventions, where DOS filenames were limited to 8 characters, something like ZELDA3.SFC, METROID3.SFC, would work.
Otherwise you'd get SUPERME~.SFC etc.

It's more challenging than you think.
Screen boundaries are often the width of one screen, but only in dungeons or underworld as far as I can remember.

Any indoors locations are all part of a bigger "EG Map" or "Underworld Map". EG referring to Exploration Glitch.
https://alttp-wiki.net/index.php/EG_Map

Where all of the rooms are tightly packed and assume a fixed boundary, rooms with a single-screen width will break in a widescreen implementation due to horizontal screen transitions, or exposing parts of rooms from completely unrelated dungeons or interiors.
