Episode 595: Modern Remakes
Added 2024-02-23 08:00:07 +0000 UTCIn 2023, the world was blessed with two fantastic remakes. Nintendo's Super Mario RPG remake left the original game almost entirely intact while giving the presentation a thoroughly modern coat of paint, while Capcom's Resident Evil 4 remake rebuilt its predecessor from the ground up to suit today's sensibilities. And somehow, both approaches were entirely successful and vaild! On this episode of Retronauts, join Bob Mackey, Maddie Copp, Gary Butterfield, and Kole Ross (of Duckfeed.tv) as the crew celebrates the fact that everything old is new and also $59.99 again.

sadly crunch is par for the course in Japanese companies, whether they make games or not - DF

2024-03-01 23:04:16 +0000 UTCThere's a short documentary on game development that talks to some of the Resident Evil 4 team. Even a month out from release the game was riddled with bugs to the point they were afraid it would be delayed. I'm sure they pulled it off with no crunch whatsoever. /sarcasm https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/5001412/
