Sometimes I like to reverse engineer old video games. 

You may also remember me from such software as:

Toad's Tool 64: The original Super Mario 64 level editor.

Metroid Cubed: An early 2000s attempt at voxelizing a classic 2D video game. Recently revived as Metroid Curved.

SFXEdit: A level editor for Star Fox.

@polpo Watched this last evening, very interesting! I remember searching for information about electromechanical Nintendo arcade games in the early days of the Web and finding almost nothing about them. It's so nice to see that there's more information available thanks to magazine scans and other preserved media, which makes well researched videos like this possible!

This is what happens when you scan a watch with a three-pass scanner.

@audioflyer79 @davidaugust Most (every?) big "AI" chatbot have been patched to intercept math questions and hand them over to an actual program (often Python). That doesn't change the fact that the LLM part itself cannot do math, and there are still risks that it will misinterpret your question and produce the wrong program to calculate the answer.

@vga256 I had a Plus, then a (b&w) Classic in the early 90s. More than once I had a dream where I found a secret function on my compact Mac to make it display color. The Color Classic was like a physical manifestation of that dream!

@vga256 As someone who was stuck with monochrome Macs for too long in the 90s I wanted a Mac Color Classic so much! I know the CC design is generally not liked among the community, but look at that translucent neon green Color Classic prototype! 🤩

@GamingWolf@mstdn.games Those were fun days! At the time my reaction was to "retire" my 2008 Luigi symbolically, by tweeting "Good night, off-model Luigi 64 from 2008." with a video of my Luigi going to sleep.

To celebrate this momentous anniversary, I remade the original video using modern technology. Which is really, just me losing my mind trying to mimic all the random moves Luigi made in the original video. https://youtu.be/WXUF-5UFUKI

20 years ago today, I posted "Luigi is Really Real 2005: The Movie" on YouTube!

This video revolutionized "Luigi in SM64" memes by going beyond badly photoshopped static images! 😏

It also happens to be the first footage of Super Mario 64 ever posted to YouTube, which had just launched a few months earlier.
