Still Going….
….but there are other remakes on the horizon as well – Wizards Lair, to name but one. I’m currently, amongst other things, working on getting the map up and running in DD.
The DS is here!

It’s lovely 🙂 Super Mario 64DS is essentially a reworking of Mario64 on the N64, with extra playable characters, a pile of minigames – single and wireless multiplayer, and some extra tricks up its sleeve.
