Super Mario 64 ported to Game Boy Advance with identical physics

Original: Someone ported Super Mario 64 to the Game Boy Advance, and the physics are exactly the same

A developer has ported Super Mario 64 to the Game Boy Advance, managing to preserve the original game's physics exactly. The feat is notable because the handheld is far less powerful than the Nintendo 64, making a faithful conversion of the 1996 classic a significant technical achievement. Fans of retro gaming and homebrew development are praising the work as an impressive showcase of what the aging hardware can still do.

Why now: Retro gaming enthusiasts are impressed by the technical achievement of recreating the N64 classic's exact physics on far weaker handheld hardware.
