- I've taken the time to go over the latest GigaLeak 2 - the massive Nintendo 64 leak of source code that occurred over the weekend. Source code and assets to Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, Wave Race 64 and more have leaked. Here is what I've discovered.

People: do you support the leaks?
MVG: The law requires that I say no.
I do not condone this. Now let me break it all down and explain how awesome this is!
There's a difference between breaking some sort of stupid user licence for your hardware by modifying it and hacking into someones network and stealing all their code.
BlueYoshi-57EML MVG making too much money off of YT to jeopardize his channel by flat out advocating hacking/piracy... but we all know the deal
There a problem with that?
@@6581punk There's also a difference between doing it 20 years ago and doing it 20 years after the console was obsolete, though.
A few notes and corrections (stuff is happening fast!)
- There has been successful compilation of Dr Mario from the source code. Correction : i've been told that Dr Mario has complete source code
- iQue DRM was broken in 2018. However AFAIK i dont believe the method was ever publicly released
- If i credited someone incorrectly or didn't credit let me know.
- Stop leaking stuff so i can go back to making Copy Protection videos lol
Your eyebrows are beautiful ;)
Calan Reichel , also the salt and pepper beard
Thank you for working so hard making these videos
I loved the last point 🤣
iQue player hacking scene is very active server is here convinient called iQueBrew but it is hardly known that the scene even exists and the methide to hack it is public
discord.gg/4g3ZUkD
Maybe you can make "How iQue Player protection was cracked" lol it is Nintendos first online service afterall
I think you forgot one thing about the case of Luigi:
In Japanese article, fans ask if Luigi was planned during the development, which Miyamoto stated it was planned for multiplayer split-screen. But due to memory restriction, they had to scrap that idea.
So in my theory, this model of Luigi was used of the planned multiplayer, which also explains why his model is basically just Mario but taller as it wasn't being made yet.
Too bad the DD expansion idea didn't come in until F Zero eh
@@bl4ckw1ngz64 And too bad the DD was pretty much a complete failure
In older games, Luigi always looked like a color-swapped Mario so it makes sense that he's just a "taller Mario"
@@littlenyancat5754 It wasn't a failure, Nintendo just thought it wasn't good enough for the US market. If Nintendo hadn't delayed the 64 and the 64DD and released it to the US market it would've sold millions
That is what I think of the theory, finally someone sees it like that too
Nintendo's accidentally going open source lol
Ikr
lol lol
If it was open source then emulator developers would actually be able to use this stuff, but they can't.
China is trying to score some points but fails to understand the environment.

AdamCarter MI5 lmao great reference bro 😂
To clarify: the source has Luigi files, but those files never got put into the original game.
Yes. This would indicate Luigi was planned in some form to be in the game but does not confirm he was in any actual build of the game. People seem to make this mistake as some think something existing means it had to be.
And now someone might compile a Rom with them restored.

Christopher already done lol. Modders work fast
Hearing the uncompressed star fox voice lines was pure bliss. All of the high res zelda items are really awesome too. Even if what happened was obviously illegal, for preservation sake it's incredibly valuable. Nintendo themselves claimed to no longer have the original voice lines for star fox but now the whole world has them.
Well it could be that Nintendo themselves didn't have it. This was BroadOn stuff after all, so maybe they had it kicking around and Nintendo didn't know.
I mean they still use captain falcons voice lines from 64. They have never changed captans voice since 65

@@anterax4097. He doesn't seem to be good at that either, she always seems to be in another castle.
I'm-a the best! You haven't seen nothing yet!
Ooft
Is he even still a plumber?
You know what I like best about this? That someone had the care to preserve these in first place even if they didn't intend to make if public.
Eh. They more than likely did it incase they needed the source code for future projects. They wanted to make sure if they needed to make money on those titles in the future they could
You that daft, Jack? The source codes are most valuable and Nintendo has had a preservation program in place for at least 25 years to keep all the code and documentation safely stored.
@@lordzooq8987 You can't underestimate how easy it is to lose information, the fact they've preserved all this for 30+ years is more than you can say about other more modern developers.
Nintendo requires source code submissions for every game they release, so Nintendo also should have a copy of every officially released game even from 3rd parties going at LEAST as far back as the SNES. SquareEnix was able to get the source code for Seiken Densetu 3 from Nintendo to use as a base for the remake, which is why Trials of Mana for SNES is a Switch exclusive (or so they say).
Sega also generally keeps great track of their source code, as most of their 1st party titles have been rereleased on other systems without emulation.
@@irrelevoice Every company keeps records, its as simple as having a place to store and keep it as well as having staff dedicated to doing so. Its not like storing data/information for that long is impossible. I see what he's saying but their intents werent that pure and the process isnt that rare, thats all im pointing out. Thats all im saying. If you think thats the most wonderful thing in the world youre more than entitled to have that view, friend. Its just not that impressive to me personally.
1080p was ahead of it's time. High definition snowboarding on the N64 is a technical marvel!
lol
I see what you did there
Especially, since there were no displays available in the 90s capable of displaying it's native resolution. A game well and truly ahead of its time...

Well, I think it would be the bee's knees.
They found every voice file in the game uncompressed, so maybe there is a full source code somewhere.
@@CaptainCoolzCT- from what I can tell, it's mostly object files. There's only 2 or 3 actual source files unfortunately... but maybe in the next leak 👌👌👌

Hey now, you're a rockstar!
I look forward to every video on your channel man! It’s great having someone who can break down the technical talk that goes over my head and all of these leaks.
The Ique ROMs have been loaded into mupen the same day it leaked. The ROM specifically for Mario 64 is an unreleased English version of the shindu version that is like a version 3.
Luigi was made with the actual Rom with the decomp project not PC port.
Luigi was planned for multiplayer that was scrapped
SM64 with rumble in English!? I'm down
is there any footage of that english version?
@@coronelfalk not really. It would crash after leaving the pipe after the opening cutscene
Why is the chinese market version in English? What is the shindu version again? Is that the one with a few bugfixes?
@@bangerbangerbro yeah and idk tbh it would crash after the opening so that's fun

I second this
I third this wholeheartedly.
"So I guess there's gonna be another MVG video tomorrow."

Thanks for the insightful explanation of these leaks!
The truth about the leak is that itll be good for game preservation. Long live Nintendo 64!
No it won't. Did you even watch the video? You cannot compile anything.
@@unitedfools3493 I did watch the video. MVG did say that it could be possible to reconstruct it. It wont compile as is but it adds another layer of preservation security.
it depends on what you want to preserve. You want to preserve the games you played as a kid? Already done.
You want to preserve historic artifacts used to create those games? This is a treasure box.
Yeah, some of the shiny rocks are just shiny rocks, but uncompressed audio and early sprites are some gems if they are what you are looking for.
@@sarowie The art, graphics and unfinished game assets are alone worth preserving.
@@sarowie absolutely. There have been a lot of awesome discoveries made from these.
hard to be on Nintendo side on this, with all the stuff these companies did so no game ever gets public domain, this will actually serve to preserve these games.
Yeah but it's their property why should they give it away?
@@NathanChisholm041 it's least about a should. But it's tremendously uncool to make this content remain unarchived afted multiple decades after their useful life, stripping credit, history and preservation
They weren't gonna do anything with it anyway so I agree. Like they could've made "behind the scenes" videos/content for some of these games.
When you consider how well preserved these files are, i would not shit that much on nintendo. They clearly have archiving covered even without others. Its sad, that they dont really do much with them, but at least they are not pieces of shit like square enix or blizzard, that lost their source codes for tons of games, that had to be then laboriously stitched together from compiled code and scraps of unremoved junk from retail copies.
@@SUNSHINE-t-mI'm all for preservation I'm sure Nintendo have everything nice and secure somewhere for future generations! Lol
Was hoping you'd do another update. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for explaining this all MVG. The leaks are really interesting to see but make no sense to a random gamer like me. Great breakdown as always!
You and Griffin Gaming should collab
Iread this with your voice
Loving your coverage on all these leaks - specifically the tech/dev perspective on what’s going on. Nice shirt too!
What if years from now we find out that one of the old dogs from Nintendo had been leaking all this content?
You never know...
That would be pretty cool and btw not that unlikely
Nintendogs?
It's not like that
*what if it was Shiggy the whole time*
the pressing question: does the leak contain a higher res texture of the plaque in the mario 64 courtyard
I condone this illegal activity, just wanted to make that clear.
Informative as always. Thank so much I needed this extra information for my podcast. Also loving the facial hair Mr. GQsmooth.
Ayyy i was just binging your videos. I am truly blessed.

I get what you mean about it being "copyrighted data" that belongs to Nintendo. Although I kinda don't feel sorry for them because they are so against fan creations or adaptations of their games. There's nothing wrong with a scholarly view of this though and you're certainly a person people look to for information about this stuff. I've bought quite a lot of Nintendo's games in the past sometimes having to buy them more than once, (like having to buy it again on the Wii, when you already have it on the SNES).
This Luigi source reference, could it have been used in the Nintendo Super Mario 64DS game? I know Luigi (also Yoshi, and Wario in addition to Mario) were in that version of the game. Anyways, keep up making the videos! They're awesome!
Edited: Accidentally missed a couple of words :)
I agree.
As for the last bit; I wonder if anyone could compare the source code to find out
If people infringe Nintendo's IP it's not Nintendo's fault that they broke the law.
@J K Just because you think you can do a better job, that doesn't mean you are allowed to steal their IP and give it a shot yourself.
@@gyroninjamodder yeah, like, he's saying it so high and mighty lmao. Create your own IP if you're so much better than them. Really.

Wait a week, and every Nintendo game is open source
Yeah this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. This leak barely came out and the people who know what this can be used for aren't even completely sure all the benifits.
no nintendo game is open source. open source is a specific term that refers to programs that have licenses that allow you to freely distribute source with or without modifications for any purposes.
all of these source code leaks are illegal.
it's old. they don't sell n64s anymore. get it over with.
@@coronelfalk what do you mean?
@@kruemmelbande5078 even if it's illegal to leak source code, the files are from games released 20 years ago like would it even affect nintendo in any way?
I appreciate the leak videos, mostly because you pull in information from different sources and present it in a straightforward manner. Plus your videos were how I first found out about these leaks.
Thanks the great video!
Luigi was in the Super Mario 64 DS port. So, he eventually made it into the game anyway.
MVG my fav when it comes to source code stuff.
Also so happy that Nintendo saved all of their past work unlike many other game studios.
Ngl I was expecting a GameCube source code leak yesterday
It will come in due time
And after GameCube, with the model for Donkey Kong Jr. in an early version of Double Dash, we'll get the Wii with a complete Hammer Bro model and animations for Mario Kart Wii.
Absolutely love what you're doing with this stuff, because the hype and pie-in-the-sky speculation I see on forums/reddit/etc makes it hard to get REAL information.
Love your videos! Very professionally made! Keep it up!
For gaming historians and those interested in hidden, deleted, and old version data will find these dumps valuable.
MVG: There is no file that links Luigi to the game files for Mario 64
Internet: OMG! Link is in Mario 64!
Please continue. This is interesting insight on gaming history that deserves its own little spotlight.
Just wanted to say I love your channel and everything you do for the retro community :)
idd love to see a version of sm64 thats able to run on original hardware now where all the "luigi" content originally scrapped is added, and luigis playable after completing the 120 stars in the same scheme as galaxy did it
I can imagine that some people are working on a hacked ROM that runs on a flash cart.
But honestly: What is the point? Yes it is a "childhood dream come true", but that is at best a recreation, but more likely it is a re-imagination.
Kaze Emanuar made a split screen hack that can run on real hardware, however things like frame skip had to be implemented. He did it to prove Nintendo wrong.
@@sarowie its like a part of your childhood you knew was there through logic of mostly imagination coming true, its great to see it come to reality 25 years and 1 month (L is real 2501)
@@beardalaxy Prove Nintendo wrong? You mean a modern day programmer using modern day tech that made it possible and was impossible in the 90s where tech was so infantile?

I completely understand your conflict on reporting on this type of information and these ongoing leaks.
That being said I truly appreciate your insight and understanding of these things from a developer perspective. You know more about this than I could ever hope to and are able to break it down in ways that I find easy to digest. Thank you for this valuable work for the community at large.

I find all the videos on this channel super interesting and the narration is so easy to listen to, even if (as a developer) I only understand a small % of the technical aspects of game dev.
I’m not even into gaming (for many years now), so that’s how good the content is.. I literally have no place being here lol
Thanks for the update!!
It feels like Nintendo is being black mailed, with more leaks when someone doesn't get their own way...
SNES and NES are pretty harmless with the source code being of fascination to many. N64 does feel like they're turning the thumb screws.
The leaker must have been disappointed with the new Paper Mario.
Absolutely they’re being extorted. Its possible that its just a random hacker who realized what they stumbled upon
@@daedremes its retaliation for puttin people in jail by Nintendo , i guess
Well let's hope they refuse to negotiate then.
Didn't Japan passed a new law that even if you were blackmailed by the yakuza, if you cooperate with them you are considered an associate and would face legal problems?
These leaks combined with the shirt you're wearing is making me hope we can finally get a satisfying conclusion to Breakdown in Doom 64.
IIRC the level designer got asked about that in a Doomworld thread. He said the easter egg was a love message (think like "Bob
Dude,
You're killing it with the beard
I appreciate your context on Luigi in Super Mario 64. Fascinating stuff! Thanks!
As a programmer myself, I don't think any programmers or graphic designers would have created any Luigi files without having the directive/task to make them.. He was probably considered for playing and may have been cut due to time constraints, as Nintendo tried pushing the game out in time for its release.
He was cut because the hardware couldn't handle split screen multiplayer.
Maybe it was not time constrains perse, but technical constrains. Okay: Later games proved that the N64 can handle 4 player split screen and the recompilation project proves that the game was not compiled with the highest newest compiler optimization options... but to some extend: It is a launch title. It is primly a single player game. Instead of tacking on a two player mode (or an alternate character with different jump physic for single player), focusing on the core game was absolutely the right decission.
I am pretty certain that Nintendo have talked about Luigi in SM64 in the past, especially for the cancelled sequel to the game that was planned for the N64DD
Miyamoto already confirmed ages ago that they planned to have a split-screen multiplayer mode where one player would control Luigi but scrapped it due to time, so this isn't even that big of news.
If the 64dd was successful in japan we would all have our beloved Luigi and Ura Zelda which just became majoras mask and master quest. Blame the Japanese
I can't believe L was real this whole time y'all
I mean we knew it was back when Miyamoto said he was in the game...

Pretty damn distracting
@@anterax4097 I wanna hop right in again... the game I mean... ;)
It's already been proven that there was going to be a split screen, two player mode with Mario and Luigi and I'm pretty sure the model has been found.
yeah but what about the textures
@@coronelfalk you right
This may just be the first non-clickbait story about the leaks. Thank you for that. I'm so so so sick of my sub list filled with "L IS REAL AFTER ALL" bullshit.
But it’s an official Nintendo-made model of Luigi created for Super Mario 64 back before the game released. Idk why you think it isn’t real, the model was released nearly 24 years and 1 month after the game was originally released. 2401. It isn’t hard to understand, but don’t accept reality.
Really appreciate your take on this, thank you.
Hopefully next the Shoshinkai demo will surface, too! This is a huge leak, and I'm glad to hear the news!
Honestly, I don’t care about the legal aspect of this when it comes to how I feel about this.

Legally Speaking, you have a Fair Use right to report on this, because it is news worthy. Not that Nintendo gives a Care about Fair Use.
It's not that Nintendo doesn't care about fair use. Fair use doesn't exist in Japan. Nintendo is a Japanese company.
This is stolen property, I don't think fair use applies...
@@n2n8sda It does. MVG is not making use of any of the assets, but only showing them for educational purposes, even if they are illegal copies (not stolen, as that would imply Nintendo no longer has ownership of them).
@@BrunodeSouzaLino This is a commercial purpose, not an educational one. It order to download these leaks he had to pirate them. The word stolen is the correct word. Intellectual property can be stolen from someone without having to remove all other memories of it.
MVG didn't obtain the leak. He's just reporting on what other people have shown. Notice how he cites every source for everything he shows. It's completely legal, not different to a standard news broadcast.
Wish they could get that Wii U source code or something we could use to speed up that emulation progress.
Wii U is too recent, Nintendo will definitely do something about that. So far what's been leaked is 20+ years old.
@@jr2904 I mean, do what? If they could do something about this you think they wouldn't? They absolutely would.
The security around it preventative wise might be better which is why it likely won't happen- but if it did happen then that would be it, Nintendo can't do squat about it once it's been dumped online.
They can target share sites, which they already do with everything, but they can't stop it at that point. No matter how recent it is.
a version control system allows you to branch into different development trees. sometimes these trees are for prototype testing only and can be used as a test bed for completely different projects.
because people do not understand how real world software development works, they assume that something was or is part of the released project if it has been found in the repository. i do this all the time to use an existing project and use it as a test environment for developing something new. it will be checked-in into a private development branch.
same thing might apply to the luigi thing here
Nintendo's mascot is a plumber, and yet they got all these leaks.
Mario needed some help, and yet Nintendo didn't give.
instead of 1080° he said 1080p lol
The best thing to come from this is finding the unused enemy, Moto in the code of Mario 64

@Mike UK and I am.
Source Code I understand, but haven't people already been ripping the sprites and models for years? I've found those assets on various websites since the early 2000's.
Yes but those were assets already on the cartridge. The idea here is finding stuff that was cut and scrapped during development that never made it onto the final cartridge; the never before seen like Luigi in Mario 64, the beta Yoshi sprites, the beta Pokémon designs, the uncompressed Star Fox 64 dialogue, etc.
Where do you think I could find some of these sprites? Keen to have a play with them

Very interesting info. Love the Doom 64 shirt!
