  • a trailer
  • for a 1997 game
  • with no improvements over the 1997 original
  • by itself; Banjo-Tooie not included
  • requires an expensive paid yearly subscription to access; cannot be purchased outright
  • an HD remaster was released in 2008, can still be purchased outright to this day, and physical copies were produced in 2015 via Rare Replay
  • but the remaster was exclusive to Xbox 360
  • it's 12 years since that remaster, and it did not get ported to the Switch
  • Nintendo finally rereleases Banjo-Kazooie, via emulation, after numerous reports about the Switch's N64 emulator having all sorts of major problems, like bad input lag in Zelda OoT and outright crashing and wiping saves in Paper Mario

Of course Garrulous64 would be in the comment section sucking Nintendo's dick over this, he's such a stereotypical fanboy. Don't ever watch his "content", it's so fucking drab and retarded.

They serve a purpose, they're a very good way of allowing a studio to cut it's chops on making something outside it's comfort zone because they have an established baseline to compare it to that already exists. Granted the term remake/remaster are interchangeable at this point, but there's still a load of games that are stuck on platforms that are less than optimal.

It's true, some companies have made the jump from remastering shit to making their own titles. Where as others couldn't remake shit like the GTA remasters and royally fucked themselves.

Yeah Grezzo did that and I got the great Ever Oasis for the 3DS. But they didn't make the magic in the Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask remasters; those games and the magic within were already made by more talented people two decades prior.

The MM remaster kind of got fucked from changing too much, I bought OOT3D because I needed an 8th copy of the game in my life but I never bought MM Remaster due to the issues that 3ds version had.

Yeah they messed up by making the save system more forgiving and Zora swimming somehow got changed. The Great Bay Temple was improved somewhat.

The only change Majora's Mask needed though was to ensure the game didn't lock after the beaver races. Otherwise the original is fine and a remake and the inevitable tinkering not necessary. Because you don't want any game to freeze or crash, but you really don't want Majora's Mask to freeze or crash.

Play the originals as they were, even if it is on new hardware; and developers spend their time making something new instead of perpetuating the slow death of the hobby.

There's good games that have flaws which can be corrected. No reason not to do so. Remasters can be good, Mario 64 literally just needs a good camera and some more refined movement to be great again. I see no reason to leave it crappy.

Mario 64 needs nothing. Stay away from it.
:jaceknife:

If you like fluid platformers, there is this doofy kid's game called Castle on the Coast. That is some top tier platforming design. Surprised the shit out of me.

That's what I thought too, until I played it last year. The controls are arguable but that camera is objectively horrendous, no exaggeration. And just make it optional; Good Camera Mode and Nightmare Camera Mode.

Never heard of Castle on the Coast, I'll have to check it out.
