HD footage of a few Nintendo GameCube tech demos present at Space World 2000. Specifically, the demos featured are Meowth's Party, Luigi's Mansion, Zelda, Metroid Prime, and Super Mario 128. Video footage from GPara DVD Magazine Vol. 6, first uploaded by Hard4Games. Upscaled 4x in Topaz Video AI 5
Detailing the technical aspects for those interested, this one stumped me for a minute. After trying various software and browsing old threads with no luck I came across Xreveal. After installing it, alongside the plugins and necessary configuration file, I successfully made it possible to access the content on the DVD. I then converted the .vob file using HandBrake. The specifications for the output file are as follows:
Format: MKV
Tracks: H.265 10-bit (NVEnc), 29.97 FPS PFR
FLAC 24-bit, Stereo
Foreign audio Scan, Burned
Chapter Markers
Filters: Decomb
Size: 2840 x 1912

This is not emulated. This is not some overpriced SNES-to-HDMI adapter.
This is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past running natively on Windows. It is ~70-80k lines of C code compiled into an executable that boots straight into the game. If it isnt obvious this is unofficial. No, I cannot give you the game as that is illegal.
Fortunately, Github links to relating projects are not: https://github.com/snesrev/zelda3
The aim of this was to showcase the fight as accurately as possible. Its running natively with no texture filtering in 16:9 1080p. I skipped out on Vegas Smart Upscale to maintain an accurate image as well as I can. I hope you enjoy.

Almost a 10 but a few seconds too slow... hopefully I can knock it down a bit [11:03:88] Castlevania: Harmony of Despair - Hard NG+ Ch.1-6 (Soma)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/aGD0M_-AaZs/mqdefault.jpg)
