There has been similar things done in the past, for example for Dune Legacy (Dune II) or REminiscence (Flashback) Mario 64 is more recent so might be a magnitude more complex. There are also other approaches, like a total re-implementation,

The reason people pay for these "VPN services" is trying to hide from the extortionists and even the law in some countries, when using BitTorrent to download the latest GoT episode? All other problems aside, how successful defence
