So this is just a test, it's not perfect, looks better in other parts then some.
I used an upscaled 720p 1998 E3 trailer uploaded and made by Burning Fish Gaming which they have uploaded here - youtu.be/E5wwSti5FQk

I then used Dain App to add extra frames in by ai once that was done, I threw it into sony vegas and got the clip split into chunks again. I then put all clips into Topaz Gigapixel AI and used a art/CG template and upscaled by 2x (2556x1440). As you can see it's not 100% perfect and some parts look better than others. I believe some other frames needed a different template applied or settings tweak. I then put it into Sony vegas once more, saved it as a video and then placed that video in again and I was able to resize the video itself to remove black bars. I know it kinda stretches and might look a bit off to some which is why I added the non stretched version which can be viewed here - youtu.be/C_nL62uqVCo

This is for only testing purposes, I'm sure someone could do a better job while its not too hard to do it's pretty damn time consuming. I did this roughly in a day or just under. And more of a what we can achieve and that sort of thing. Also it was requested, so hopefully you are happy with one of the few results :)

Credits go to Burning Fish Gaming, Max Timbs for the remake of the icon of Dain app I used in the thumbnail - artstation.com/artwork/VgDvRZ
and the creators of Dain App.
And Kula Fula for the request/idea. - youtube.com/channel/UC1qsU3ScpW8FvM7_BRjr3zg

I also uploaded a non upscaled (by me) version, just 60fps added to it which can be viewed here (compare) - youtu.be/vT6VlLIrkvo

60fps added only, no upscale - youtu.be/-yzQlKARlQ0
