This version of Mario 64 requires a GTX 3090 to run.

In the event that you’ve ever needed to play a 1996 game with 2021 special visualizations, I have uplifting news for you. As reported by Nintendo Life, the Super Mario 64 PC port that Nintendo attempted to close down a year ago is continuing forward, and one modder is chipping away at a variant of the game with beam-followed reflections and lighting impacts.

Things are starting to calm down at last and I'm catching up with some pending work. It's gonna take a while to get back into making more progress. Thank you all for your patience.

The video is several months old, but it’s as yet the latest update on the beam-followed Mario 64 undertaking. The modder is named Darío Samo, and the video shows Super Mario 64 running on an RTX 3090. As Darío mentions in the video title, it’s a $1500 GPU being utilized to run a 25-year-old game.

While the YouTube video features the Wet-Dry world in its shallow-water mode, with some lighting impacts given by power-covered Amps and fire-regurgitating Keronpa Balls, Darío has additionally shared recordings of different levels on Twitter. The latest update shows the red-and-blue fire lights of the stronghold’s storm cellar, while a previous video shows a portion of the perplexing shadows in Dire Docks’ red coin region.

"So what did you get your brand new GPU for?"

The PC port grabbed the eye of Nintendo’s attorneys a year ago when it was released. The organization found a way to eliminate the two recordings of the informal port and went with download joins.

Fortunately, it appears to have made due, notwithstanding the DMCA crackdown. In September a year ago, Nintendo re-released Super Mario 64 alongside Mario Sunshine and Mario Galaxy as a component of Super Mario 3D All-Stars for the Switch.

All-Stars is intended to be a restricted version game commemorating the 35th anniversary of the Mario establishment. New duplicates are not currently accessible for purchase after March 31, 2021.
