A long-living dream for me has just happen to came finally true, I'm so happy right now
Around 20 years ago, I grew up with the N64, had a lot of games for it, but for me, with other great games, like Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, all 3 Mario Party Games and more, Paper Mario was with one of my favorites I've loved to replay over and over again - it never tired me out to play it.
Since I also had a DS and a few years later a 3DS, I've sometimes wondered if you could somehow ever play Paper Mario on the 3DS and other games from the N64, like how you already could play N64 games or games from other consoles on a PC with emulators, like I sometimes tried with the Gamecube emulator "Dolphin" back then, to check out TTYD (because the N64 was my only legit console we had, I couldn't have any other), but soon you were also able to play it from Android phones and even other platforms, which is really awesome to see, how far things have to come and developed so fast in those past years.
And now recently, a wish came true for me, which I found out just right now, because I can finally play Paper Mario directly and with no emulation anymore on my New 3DS XL.
Thanks to all the decompilation projects, that I have watched over the last years and how much progress they have already made, for like SM64, Ocarina of Time, and surprisingly Paper Mario too, where they decompiled these games fully to 100%, which means that emulators for these (few) games can or will in the near future not be needed anymore, so for many (or just a few) platforms, because they can be then ported to other platforms, like how we already have Super Mario 64 ported, to play it directly on PC, or also just recently Mario Kart Wii on the 3DS (that's not a joke)!
And now this awesome project I found on GitHub, which is called StarHaven, with the active development of porting Paper Mario natively to the 3DS family - you can also check out many other awesome decompilation projects and ports of games, which are known here.
I just thought I was just dreaming when I saw that project, because for me it's really like a dream I have and wished for a very long time already, which just came true and I'm really happy right now that it finally exist. So I quickly got my 3DS and followed the instructions on their GitHub project page (FYI, you need CFW on your 3DS!), which was very easy to do actually and now, I can finally play it on my 3DS, what a joy!
Am I the only one or does anyone else here, hoped for such a thing to happen in the future, playing Paper Mario on a 3DS or maybe on a PC, with also many new extra features, where you don't even have to use emulation anymore?
Sorry if my wording is sometimes a bit off or maybe my English in general, I'm still kinda "shocked" from all this and that it's actually real.
BTW, here are some pictures I've made, to show you Paper Mario running from my N3DS XL, which looks very good for me on the 3DS and there are already many additional features included, that we can have now finally built-in, since we don't have here to rely on emulation anymore, which also make the second screen much more useful.
It's just beautiful, I still can't stop to smile, when I'm going to play it now, also in 3D :)

@NunnyMoniker @Obsessive_Gamer in fact, how about you go ahead and look through yourself? zeldaret/oot3d i'll be waiting once you do that for you to pull up PR statements that you, yourself, have criticized people pulling up.
The Legends of Zelda: Majora's Mask ported to Xbox 360 I ported Majora's Mask to Xbox 360. It has a lot of nice features over just emulating the game: - Higher resolution: drawn at 1280×720, three times the N64's 320×240 - 60 FPS - 16:9 widescreen - Anti-aliasing: FXAA smooths jagged edges. - HD textures (optional): load the 2Ship2Harkinian HD texture pack, such as ReMasked, for high-resolution HUD, text, icons and more. See Github page for instructions. Download the latest release here: github.com/wasdconnor/MajorasMask360/releases/lat… - This release does not include any game assets. You will need to provide your own NSTC / USA Majora's Mask .z64 rom Install instructions (More detailed version available on the Github repo): 1. Download mm360.xex from the latest release. 2. Make a folder for the game on the console's hard drive or a USB drive, for example Hdd1:\Games\MajorasMask360\ or Usb0:\Apps\MajorasMask360\. 3. Put two files in it: 1. MajorasMask360\ 1. mm360.xex 2. <your ROM>.z64 (any name, as long as it ends in .z64) 4. Launch mm360.xex from Auroura. AI Disclosure: This was 100% done with AI Credits: Zelda64Recomp, N64Recomp and N64ModernRuntime by Wiseguy and contributors, the Majora's Mask decompilation project, and the audio code from mupen64plus-rsp-hle. preview.redd.it preview.redd.it
