Combat Lobster posted:If anyone is curious about the Playstation version look no further then its title screen:  This was also the cover art for the PSX version. I guess they were trying to make Mickey seem cooler and edgier and such for the PSX audience, but even as a kid I thought this cover was just silly. As for the game itself, I played the SNES version a lot when I was a kid. I liked it, but never even got close to finishing it because it got balls hard very fast and I suck at platformers. I got the Mega Drive version last year, and this game certainly hasn't gotten any easier (nor have I gotten much better at platform games) over the last 20 years.

Killrrhubarb posted:The PS version of Steamboat Willie for those interested. As far as I can tell the sprites are a little different. Look at that awesome ducking animation! Also love how the title/copyright screen reads "(c) 1995 PYGNOSIS"

gently caress this level. I'm pretty sure I never made it past this point myself, my friend did somehow manage to get all the way to the final level though. It would be quite nice if each update included a youtube link to the relevant cartoon, although I suppose we can always look them up ourselves as well. In any case, here's The Mad Doctor (1933). edit: I guess it might technically be  to have the links to the full cartoons even if it's just Youtube, so I'll remove the Steamboat Willie link for now just to be safe. The Mad Doctor is apparently in public domain so that should be okay.

Anime Reference posted:Steamboat Willie has been put on Youtube by Disney themselves. Quality's not great but I have no idea if there's a better version out there somewhere (it is 85 years old, after all.) I've never actually seen these old cartoons until now, and holy poo poo Mickey used to be an enormous rear end in a top hat.

Watching the Mickey's Speedway USA video. Man, I had completely forgotten Rare made this, probably for a reason because it does look incredibly mediocre in every way. And of course it has to be balls hard, it wouldn't be a proper Rare game without the unnecessary frustration. Also, why is everything so pixelated? On the N64 you'd always get your lovely 90s textures in the blurry variety whereas PSX and Saturn had giant pixels everywhere, and this just looks like you're playing a PSX game. Is the emulator's texture filtering turned off, or does the game actually look like this? Don't worry, I'm not asking you to rerecord anything even if there is something going on with the emulator, I'm just wondering why it looks so harsh.

I looked up some youtube videos of the game, and judging from those the textures are supposed to have the usual blurry N64 look, no huge-rear end pixels all over the place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1mYAEvVNu4 Playing around with the graphics settings on the emulator might help. Obviously, the game is running at a higher resolution and everything will look sharper when you're using emulation, but the N64's texture filtering shouldn't get disabled even at stupid high resolutions.
