UPODATE! This hack now featured on Blue Television Games YouTube channel!
Super Flyin Again, a romhack based on Super Mario Bros 3 (NES), has just been released, and the author would love to have you take it for a spin. This is a sequel, and the idea for the first one came from the new tech which Nintendo had given to Raccoon Mario in Super Mario Maker, where he can recharge his flight timer by hitting enemies!
This is a moderately difficult romhack, but only because of the precision demanded of the player. You must fly and recharge your flight timer by hitting enemies. If you fail to do this in time, you will lose flight, and either die by falling into a pit, or be forced to restart, due to not being able to regain p-speed and regain flight.
The first two levels following the training level are much more forgiving, and are used to get you accustomed to the custom powerup (the Fire Leaf), and the mechanics of the game. There is even a leaf powerup in one of the question mark blocks in one of these levels, in case you lose it!
Difficulty grades carefully in this game, but lets you know it means business pretty early on!
The author of this hack has made an extensive README pdf document enclosed in the project’s ZIP file, and gives great depth of insight in a well-organized format. A fun read to see some behind-the-scenes stuff!
If you’re worried about burning through all of your Fire Leaf powerups, feel free to add this patch to the game. It will keep the inventory from ever being decremented. Once it is in there, you can use it as much as you want.

When a player considers alternate narratives for Final Fantasy 3 (SNES), the mind naturally gravitates to the powerful imperial general cut down too soon. Leo Cristophe.
Hackers are aware of this. Indeed, many dig into the heart of this game trying to give Leo a more significant role. But when others go right, does not curiosity and a contrarian spirit drive you to go left?
Who would ever give Banon a second thought? He’s gruff, the player is forced to protect him lest a game-over be inflicted, and as rebel leaders go he’s a bit doughy. The game itself even writes him off, leaving the player to decide his fate when things are at their worst. He is an unresolved thread, a loose end.
So instead of turning right, this hack goes left. Who knows what waits to be found in the rough crags of this path? Will the gamble be worthwhile, or will it succumb to the elements on the cold moor? You decide.

“Disney’s Aladdin” on Genesis is widely considered to be one of the best games of the platform, and it is often debated if it’s better than the game with the same name on SNES.
That SNES game has a bootleg port for NES made by Hummer Team and it’s often called the “best bootleg game of all time”. Two hacks were made respectively to better the game’s controls and music. So “Aladdin Hummer Team Deluxe” was made to improve the graphics, you can see a brief demonstration in this video:
The Sega game also got a bootleg port, this time made by Super Games, and it’s not as good as the other game, but it’s still a very good bootleg game. So “Soup Aladdin” was created to give that game the same treatment, improving the graphics as much as possible instead of only the uglier sprites, especially because the Genesis game is famous for having beautiful animation. Hoping to encourage other people to improve this game on gameplay and music, just as the first two hacks inspired HT DX.
“Aladdin Hummer Team Deluxe” got decent attention, so this post exists to see if it’s a bad idea, or if there is actual interest.
Have a nice day!

The impact of COVID-19 on Switch production is subsiding, Nintendo has said, but the Japanese firm anticipates disruption to the development and release of first-party software.
Speaking to investors, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa addressed the slowdown in Switch production in March and April, due to the impact of COVID-19 on component manufacturing.
"As a result, we are not in a position to be able to produce the full quantity of units we actually want to produce," he said.
"That said, there are signs of gradual improvement, and so we anticipate that the impact of COVID-19 on production will subside to some degree by summer, and that the volume we will be able to produce throughout the year will align with our sales forecast units for this fiscal year."

Nintendo has filed two lawsuits against resellers offering hacks for the Switch.
Polygon reports the suits were filed on Friday; one in an Ohio court against Tom Dilts Jr and the UberChips website he allegedly runs, the other in a Seattle court against the anonymous defendants behind nine websites.
The two filings read much the same, with the platform holder asserting that the defendants "offer to the public devices, the sole purpose of which is to hack the Nintendo Switch video game console in order to allow people to play pirated video games."
Both suits claim the products the defendants sell are from anonymous hacking group Team Xecuter, which produces the SX OS and "accompanying piracy tools that install it."
At the time of writing, all nine sites from the second suit are still live and offering the Xecutor hacks for Nintendo Switch.
However, UberChips appears to be offline, allegedly for maintenance, with a statement telling visitors: "An unfortunate set of events has happened."
The site says it is cancelling all pre-orders for its SX products and will begin processing refunds immediately.
"We intended no harm selling pre-orders of this product," the site reads.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is setting records left and right -- it's now the top-selling Nintendo Switch title for both lifetime digital sales and lifetime digital revenue.
According to SuperData, the game sold 3.6 million digital units in its second month, down 27% from its March sales but still the top-selling digital title on console, above Final Fantasy 7 Remake -- which sold 2.2 million digital units in April -- at No.2 and FIFA 20 at No.3.
Resident Evil 3, which came in at No.10 in console digital sales, sold 1.3 million units during its launch month -- almost as many as the 1.4 million digital units Resident Evil 2 remake sold during its launch month in January of last year.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered launched on March 31, selling 622,000 digital copies on launch day and another 3.4 million units in the month of April, putting it at No.9 last month for console sales.

It's actually surprising that Lego and Nintendo, two icons of family entertainment, have never worked together before.
Warner Bros' various Lego video games are among a select group of third-party titles to have sold big on Nintendo consoles, whereas Nintendo's cast of characters have long proven themselves to be a licensing goldmine for toy companies. The two brands clearly match-up, which is why the news that Lego and Nintendo had collaborated on a Super Mario project was exciting.
The project, however, isn't what anyone had expected. It would have been easy -- and probably quite lucrative -- for Lego to put together some branded sets: blister packs of figures and a giant Peach's castle to build. You could even foresee a Lego video game featuring Mario and chums.

Those that had their heart set on playing the remaster of Star Wars Episode 1: Racer on launch have suddenly found that they won't get the chance to experience it, just yet. AspyrMedia, the publisher in charge of bringing the game to both PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch have announced that they will not be able to make the release date, which was supposed to be on today, May 12th. The delay stems from difficulties surrounding development due to the current work at home mandate across the globe, according to the company. A new release date was not provided. Star Wars Episode 1: Racer originally released in 1999, for the Game Boy Color, PC, and Nintendo 64, followed by a Dreamcast version a year later.

MegaZeux (or MZX) is a game creation system (GCS) initially released in late 1994 by Alexis Janson. MegaZeux is heavily inspired by Tim Sweeney's ZZT. Like ZZT, MZX was originally released as shareware and the world editor portion of the program was included for free, allowing third parties to create their own worlds without even registering.
MZX is officially supported on Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Android, Nintendo DS, 3DS, Wii, Switch, and the PSP. Older ports exist for AmigaOS 4, GP2X, and Pandora. MZX has also been ported to other platforms such as OpenSolaris, HaikuOS, and the Sega Dreamcast.

As many expected, Nintendo is likely going after the recently released fanmade Super Mario 64 PC port. After gaining notoriety and popularity throughout the internet, certain YouTube videos and Reddit posts featuring gameplay recordings of the port have been copyright claimed. It appears that Wildwood Law Group LLC, a group that has previously assisted Nintendo in these matters, is responsible for going after the uploads of the game. Not only that, but TorrentFreak is also reporting that they got ahold of a complaint that Nintendo filed with Google, in regards to a Google Drive download link of the game, with the statement, "The copyrighted work is Nintendo's Super Mario 64 video game, including the audio-visual work, software, and fictional character depictions covered by U.S. Copyright Reg No. PA[REDACED]." Links containing a download to an .XCI Nintendo Switch port of the game also appear to have begun making the rounds as well. Seeing that the group behind the Super Mario 64 PC port uploaded the complete game online all at once, many users have probably already backed it up to a variety of sources.

Last October, EA gave a point-by-point outline of its plans for releases throughout fiscal 2021, including ongoing live service games, a new sports title, games from third-party partners, and a lot of Apex Legends.
It was also, as recently as January of this year, still very lukewarm on bringing more of its games to the Nintendo Switch.
But now, with the publisher's fiscal 2020 solidly in the rearview, EA has offered an update on its upcoming release slate of titles, which has shifted somewhat since it first laid things out in October.
For one, EA appears to have relaxed somewhat on its Switch stance, noting that it would launch "multiple" titles on Nintendo's platform this year -- Burnout Paradise: Remastered making just one.
Alongside Burnout Paradise, EA also already has announced Command & Conquer: Remastered for PC, with both titles currently planned for June 2020. And in Q2 and Q3, annual sports titles FIFA 21, Madden NFL 21, and NHL 21 are all still on track.
So far, all that is in line with what we've been led to expect so far based on the October remarks. Also still in the plans for the year is Medal of Honor VR, and that as-yet-unannounced fourth sports title.
So what's changed? Back in October, EA outlined that it was planning to have two unannounced projects from third-party partners. That number has now been upped to four, presumably additions to the EA Originals indie program.
And then there are two upcoming, unannounced mobile titles as well.

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp enjoyed its best ever month for revenue in April, according to data from Sensor Tower.
In April 2020, the mobile game earned $7.9 million in revenue across Google Play and the App Store -- just ahead of the $7.8 million it earned in August 2019.
This spike coincided with the launch of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which launched for the Nintendo Switch on March 20. Nintendo has not confirmed an official sales figure, but it has broken records in several key global territories.

The Nintendo Switch passed 55 million units sold in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, boosted by the strong performance of Animal Crossing and Pokémon.
Nintendo earned ¥1.3 trillion ($12.2 billion) in the financial year, up 9% over an already strong fiscal 2019. The Japanese company made a profit of ¥259 billion ($2.4 billion), up 33% year-on-year.
It was a good year for first-party software, with Pokémon Sword and Shield reaching 17.37 million units by the end of March, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons selling 11.77 million units despite launching just 11 days before the end of the accounting period.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons' strong performance continued, with the game reaching 13.4 million units in the six weeks following its launch,
Luigi's Mansion 3 and Super Mario Maker 2 also performed well, and Nintendo said that 27 Switch games sold one million units during the fiscal year. Overall, 169 million units of software were sold on the Switch during fiscal 2020, up 42% year-on-year.
Nintendo said that, of the revenue earned through software, 34% came from digital sales -- a significant increase on the 24.8% share in the prior year.

Cemu v1.18.2c is released. Cemu is a Nintendo Wii U emulator that runs commercial games. Highly experimental software to emulate Wii U applications on PC.
Cemu Changelog:
# New in 1.18.2c:
Vulkan: Fixed a bug in the new cache which could lead to Cemu freezing or crashing randomly
# New in 1.18.2b:
Vulkan: The SPIR-V optimization pass is now always enabled (no longer considered experimental)
Vulkan: Added SPIR-V cache to speed up shader loading screen on subsequent runs
Vulkan: Fixed an issue where the wrong image layout (LAYOUT_UNDEFINED) would be provided for operations on 3D textures
On strict or optimized drivers this could lead to texture data being thrown away (as far as we know, only Nvidia 445.75+ drivers are affected)
# New in 1.18.2:
general: When updating graphic packs Cemu will let the user know if previously enabled graphic packs were removed or renamed
general: Improved robustness of account.dat parser (invalid files could crash Cemu on launch)
general: Updated language files
coreinit: Added API MEMFreeToFrmHeap (#322)
Used by Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth (but other issues still prevent it from running)
nn_nfp: Changed behavior of GetNfpRegisterInfo for unregistered Amiibos
Games that expect Amiibos with a registered owner no longer should display an empty ErrEula message box
nn_nfp: Implemented API GetErrorCode and NFCGetTagInfo
Vulkan: Correctly emulate depth clamping
This fixes the overly bright backgrounds in some stages of Super Smash Bros for Wii U
Vulkan: Added an overlay notification for when a Vulkan graphics pipeline has to be compiled
Vulkan: Added experimental SPIR-V optimization pass which is applied to all shaders that are compiled during the shader loading screen
This should reduce pipeline compilation stutter if a shader cache is present. It may also reduce GPU load slightly
The downside is that the shader loading screen is much slower. But we plan to address this in a future Cemu update
By default this option is disabled. It can be enabled under Debug -> Experimental
Also note that this option results in different shaders being generated and consequently triggers new pipeline compilation
input: Remember ip and port for DSU client
