I've always wanted to play the Castlevania games for the N64.

There used to be an N64-based arcade game on the site called Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth. I forget when it was removed, but it was a really long time ago (say 2008 or 2009). On my computer, which was new at the time, I remember getting really slow speeds on it, between 30%-70%.

And there are already several games here on RU that are unplayable by most users, try playing Cyber Sled.

Super Smash Bros Easily.

Although NFL Blitz would be nice.

**Dudebro** · 01-20-2012, 02:36 PM

@SH- I used to love that game in the arcade. It loaded up quick and the FPS stayed around 85-95% for me. I couldn't figure out the controls though but it was smoothly crashing into the walls.

**Seahawk** · 01-20-2012, 03:18 PM

A bowling alley I used to go to had it, I remember the huge rush I got from beating training mode for the first time on one credit.

**Dudebro** · 01-20-2012, 03:21 PM

How was your FPS for it? How do you set up the controls to actually work?

**Kong** · 01-20-2012, 03:29 PM

I get about 70% on it.

**Seahawk** · 01-20-2012, 03:36 PM

The original game uses two analog joysticks to move your tank, with two trigger buttons on each, so you'll need an input device the provides the equivalent of all of those.

A standard Xbox 360 wired controller would be pretty good.

**Dudebro** · 01-20-2012, 03:38 PM

I'll have to try my controller. I remember liking that game but not wanting to pay a dollar a game, total rip off.

**joz** · 01-20-2012, 03:56 PM

@SH: what would one need in order to run that game smoothly?

**fungusman** · 01-20-2012, 05:52 PM

n64 games are huge too, I'm curious to see how kong is going to go about that.

**joz** · 01-20-2012, 06:43 PM

Kong can manage to fit huge things in small spaces.

They are larger than our average game size. They are not larger than our largest games.

N64 games range from 4-64 MB, with only two games at 64MB (Resident Evil 2 and Conker's Bad Fur Day) and only a few at 32MB. Most hang around 16MB or less.

In comparison, Metal Slug on the Neo Geo is 29.5MB.

**Morshu** · 01-21-2012, 12:42 AM

It would make my day if you guys got Conker's Bad Fur Day. That is my all time favorite game. Resident Evil 2, the Castlevania games, Perfect Dark and Mischief Makers would be great to see on here too.

What are our largest games

?

**Dudebro** · 01-21-2012, 01:49 AM

Seahawk already posted one of the largest(might even be the largest)
Retro Uprising - Arcade - Cyber Sled

**Kong** · 01-21-2012, 02:00 AM

Hmm. I thought we had some larger ones than these but I was wrong. These are currently the largest games by filesize.
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
Mortal Kombat 3
Ganryu
Gaia Crusaders
World Heroes Perfect
Shadow Over Mystara
Super Gem Fighters
King of Fighters '95
Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon
Mortal Kombat 2
World Heroes Perfect 2 Jet
All coin-op.

Hoping to get up to get up to games as big as King of Fighters '99 this year. Which is 5 times as big as UMK3. But that might be a bit of a stretch. We will see.

Probably will get up to at least as big as Metal Slug.

Resident Evil 2 and Conker's Bad Fur Day for N64 might be pushing it too much. Again, we will see.

@DB, depends on how you measure it. If going by file size, Cyber Sled isn't that big.

It just requires a fast PC, not bandwidth.

Do you think The Castlevania Games..Perfect Dark..And the Bond games for 64 are feasible?

I misunderstood what SH was saying then, I thought he meant because of the size it would be unplayable for most people.

**Tails** · 01-21-2012, 03:24 AM

In the game getting 85% evenly.

**Simon#Belmont** · 01-21-2012, 09:19 AM

I really glad that my topic took off like this...thank you everyone who posted.

I am guessing
8GB RAM or more
An i7 processor
A top of the line video card
And a controller with dual analog sticks.
That should be a new desktop around $1200. Not counting monitor, keyboard, mouse etc.

I'm not going to answer individual game questions like these. Two many unknowns still. But the majority will be added.
