It’s jarring for anyone who grew up playing one or both games, but Mario surprisingly fits well into the world of Banjo-Kazooie. Using the SM64Paint program, which gives modders an array of tools to play around with, Trenavix took Mario’s first 3D adventure and combined it with the sounds, style and map of Banjo-Kazooie. Their Super Banjo-Kazooie 64 demo is their most impressive work yet, however. Trenavix, along with modders Waschpenner and Shyguyhex, has played around with tweaking other games in the past, including Banjo-Tooie and Dark Souls 3. This game, released in the US as Banjo-Kazooie, is part of a large collection of Japanese Nintendo 64 games in The Strong's collection that represent nearly 100% of all games released for that system.Super Mario 64 mods are nothing new, but a near-perfect port of the classic Nintendo 64 game into the world of fellow N64 hit Banjo-Kazooie is a new high for the community. The N64 sold 32 million units worldwide before Nintendo discontinued it in 2003, two years after releasing its successor, the GameCube. Gamers and developers alike also praised the system for being the first major home console to incorporate pressure-sensing analog joysticks into its controller design. Despite these difficulties, gamers still consider the N64 a successful console, mainly because it included many iconic games such as the groundbreaking 3D Super Mario 64, GoldenEye007, and Doom 64. In 1998, Nintendo attempted to compensate for this lack of memory by designing the Expansion Pak accessory, which included an additional 4MB of RAM and allowed designers to enhance their games.
In addition to being more expensive, these cartridges also contained a much smaller amount of memory in comparison to discs, which severely limited the complexity of the games and led several third-party publishers to transfer their business to Sony and Sega. Despite this heavy concentration on graphics, Nintendo continued to use traditional ROM cartridges for its games, instead of the optical discs favorite by its main competitors, the Sony PlayStation and the Sega Saturn. Named for its 64-bit processor, the N64 represented Nintendo's first attempt to create a console with high-quality 3D graphics and strong CGI capabilities. Released in 1996 for $199, the Nintendo 64 (often styled N64) became the third home video game console in the Nintendo line.
