(Apologies if this is already common knowledge, but feel it should be everywhere) So I went into Switch's control setting, swapped the sticks, swapped the ZL and ZR, and then went to 1.2 control setting in-game. That will give you a nice modern dual stick, pretty modern layout.

Unfortunately the licensing nightmare that G64 has been mired in since the early 2000s probably played the biggest role in holding back the potential of this re-release. I tend to agree that the only way all the parties involved would allow this thing to live again on modern hardware is for it to be as close to a 1:1 with the original as possible. Its sad that we have sit here having to be thankful that Goldeneye is available at all, but given the number of cookie jars that had to be simultaneously pilfered to make this happen...it really is kind of a small miracle.

Great video, so do you think both versions are like the same or, not counting multiplayer online & controls, do you think Nintendo Switch ver. is generally better in term of glitches/fps and missing artifacts?

Irony is that original N64 version has dual stick support by using two controllers. One of the alternate control mappings had Z trigger fire emulating a gun for a right hander(Default was left handed!), analogue stick under thumb for aim, d-pad to move, left shoulder to ADS. It's a forgotten father to today's default controller layouts. iirc it also had a lean around corner effect if you were right up on a corner, ADS and strafed a little you would lean presenting a smaller target and much easier to snap back. Or I could be imagining it. It has been forever since I last played it.

I definitely understand locking to 30, I’ve used 1964 at 60fps and both games definitely had trouble, they were mostly fine but then you’d find weird issues in places, most notably any crouching guard would skip the reloading action block, this seems to be fixed in more recent versions of 1964 but I remember back in the day it made Perfect Dark’s Air Force One almost unbeatable since the crouching Mr. Blonde’s would just shoot an endless stream of bullets without reloading or standing up. It’s a real shame none of these are perfect, I really wish they’d finish up the XBLA version, I still think I prefer the look of the original graphics but a remaster like that would be amazing to see, if Perfect Dark could get such a good one so should Goldeneye. I think they could still make these versions work, if they gave both of them a locked 30fps, improved controls, and online multiplayer, but like this they’re so disappointing. But at least thanks to the switch version we do have a way to finally play the game online. I just hope some fans can finish up the 360 version, I think with enough effort that could be ported to run natively on PC and have any unfinished features finished.

No...for me

My best guess as a bystander with no actual knowledge of the circumstances is honestly that, considering how difficult securing the rights has always been, the XBLA version was fully scrapped in favor of emulation as part of stipulations both with MGM (possibly a "you cannot release a changed version, you can only release the nintendo 64 game as we already approved it) or concerns with Rare, considering how long ago that old port was made. It's possible that code loss might've occurred, or people who would need to be credited or paid for it no longer work with the company, so in the face of dealing with that, they decided to just opt for emulation instead, on account of the fact that they likely wouldn't make any additional money off of it anyway, being unable to sell it standalone.

was it recent that the n64 nso app added the c buttons to the right stick? because setting it to solatare and flipping the sticks seems the same as the xbox controals to me. maybe im missing something

I was playing split screen with my buddy on his switch and there was a HUGE latency issue, like almost half a second. Is anybody else experiencing this? Seeing people talk about the control mapping but not latency.

Nintendo's consent was a big factor in the game being re-released at all. There's no way that they'd have accepted the Xbox version looking so much better. Yes, the XBLA code could have been ported to Switch, but that would have been a much bigger time and money investment than just using their existing emulation framework. They'd have had to hire Code Mystics (or another studio) to do the work, rather than being able to simply do it in-house. Microsoft would also have to be willing to hand over the source code for the code for the XBLA port in such a scenario, and they may not have wanted to do that for free. Or the source code may even have been lost, given it's an unreleased game from 15+ years ago. Who's to say Rare even have it any more? Overall, I'm not surprised that this is all we get. As with everything related to GoldenEye, there are just too many complications for the XBLA version to ever resurface officially.

@goranisacson2502

​@@CaptainKenway I have also heard (and this may be bullshit since it's all just twitter / forum talk) that one complication for the XBLA versions release is that the Rare devs working on it didn't actually have MGM:s permission to to do so. They were working on it as a pitch more or less, but never actually had permissions to do so- which means that if that version were to become playable everything in it would have to be scrutinized and investigated- but Goldeneye N64 is already vetted, and it is probably WAY quicker for them, and less legal bullshit to cut through, to go with the N64 version.

The two things that have always bugged me the most about NSO's N64 are the visuals and the controls. I think a lot of elements get this weird rounded texture that just looks ugly but I could probably get by if it had some sort of filter like their NES and SNES offerings. Am I to believe that the Switch can't handle that? The second is the N64 was a freak of a controller so most games on the service feel weird until you rebind the control scheme in the Switch settings. Which I'm glad that it's there to begin with but I wish that each game in the NSO N64 service had it's own unique control scheme. Better yet let the player manually input their preferred control scheme and save it to that individual game. I know that this is sorta-technically-possible but I'd rather it be doable within the service rather than me having to leave the game, go to a menu, head to another menu, to reach another menu, and than return to the game.

As someone who hasn’t played the original and is playing on switch: the game is FUN and seems to have aged well, why do y’all care about 60fps, 30 or whatever fps switch has is great and the controls don’t make the game unplayable, I personally chose the control scheme 1.2, changed L stick to R stick, R stick to L stick and moved A = B, B = Y, Y = X and X = A, i end up shooting with ZL, moving with L stick, Camera with R stick, reload and action with Y and changing weapon with B, having loads of fun

NSO-games where all just like the originals and always had issues because of missing C-Buttons. But since I play it because of nostalgia I want to see the game with all the graphical issues the original had. The biggest loss for me is that I can’t find an affordable original N64-controller or at least a third-party one featuring C-Buttons. To play it anyways I always hold down the ZR-Button which also works out quite ok after a little training. But you can’t reload or change weapons while strafing.

I stayed up very late yesterday to play this and man was it a lot of fun. I agree with MVG that the XBLA version should have been the base, that was what I was looking for, but this isn't bad either, its a modern tech friendly version of an old classic and I love that this has found it's way back in my life so many years after I played it continuously for several years after release. Thanks for covering this... It was a true pleasure :)

I definitely loved it a lot back in the day so hearing it was finally dropping this week I was quite psyched! I only played it over on XBOX and for the most part I'm happy with it. But somewhere along the line the classic cheat codes didn't make the cut. You CAN still get them by finishing the specific levels in the fastest time, but some of us never got that good, so we're just SOL. Aside from that and the lack of online I don't have much to complain about, playing vs. mode matches with my wife (who also spent a lot of time in GE N64) has been an absolute blast! so even without cheats we're having a ton of fun with it.

kind of hard to believe microsoft literally have a fully made remake sitting on there shelf yet they release this.

Yeah if they released the remaster they would have to clear it with Nintendo, share it with Nintendo, and write about 50 different royalty checks to the people who were involved in 1997 and haven't even thought about the game since then.

I been trying to play online but I can only play with people on my friends list? Am I doing something wrong? I just want to play online vs. anyone, not just players on my friends list.

And I played the hell out of that game in my youth.

I was pleasantly surprised that it was a free download for me. I love the changes they made to the controls, and widescreen support on the Xbox version. Looking forward to a cheat code that’ll unlock the Xenia version.

I got this day one on the switch i have the original n64 controller from nintendo to play it and it blew me away its not glitchy like on emulators, it runs smooth and it just works. So not sure wwhat u mean by mess?

MVG, really appreciate you making honest sponsor spots, especially for VPN's. Where most people outright call out false selling points for VPN's which are misleading and damaging, you're always using accurate points and real use cases and mitigations that VPN's can actually provide. Thank you for this, it really shows that you pay attention to detail and it's always been something I've enjoyed from your channel over the past years I've been subbed.

I believe Tom Scott changed the VPN sponsorship game.

I noticed some issues when played it on series s but it was nice to see the game back. Especially with controls on Xbox

I was hoping you would do a video on this new release. So many good memories of GoldenEye 007!
