THE NINTENDO CONSOLE LEAK IS SAID TO INCLUDE:
- N64, GameCube and Wii source code
- Diagrams and datasheets for every system component
- Documents describing feature planning and implementation
- Full Wii operating system SDK
- Planning docs for implementation of the Wii from 2004-2006
- Spaceworld ’99 demos
The early demos are said to be part of an alleged leak of Nintendo source code, which could be linked to a larger breach of legacy Nintendo data which was first reported in May.
So far videos showing early prototypes of Super Mario Kart and Super Mario World 2 (Yoshi’s Island) have appeared online, supposedly repurposed from the leaked source code. Early sprites for Super Mario World are also said to have appeared online.
The videos showing prototype versions of Yoshi’s Island are the most significant, showcasing entirely new UI and levels. One prototype for Mario World 2 shows an entirely new character in a forest environment.
According to an anonymous post on the 4chan forum, the leak also includes the source code for F-Zero, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Mario RPG, Super Mario All-Stars, Link’s Awakening DX, Star Fox 2, Wild Trax and Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
The leak is also said to include data for the Wii Shop Channel, a Wii Game Boy emulator, iQUE and more.
