Hackers have got Super Mario 64 running on the Microsoft Zune, the failed media player Microsoft discontinued years ago. The port is a homebrew effort showing how Nintendo's 1996 classic can now be squeezed onto unlikely hardware, and retro gaming fans are enjoying the absurdity of Mario running on a device best known as an iPod competitor.
Why now: Retro gaming enthusiasts find it amusing and impressive that a 1996 Nintendo game now runs on Microsoft's long-dead media player
