We are proud to offer the Sama-Coco dataset, a relabelling of the Coco-2017 dataset by our own in-house Sama associates (here’s more information about our people!). We invite the Machine Learning (ML) community to use it for anything you would like to do – all free of charge and ungated.
This is part of our ongoing effort to redefine data quality for the modern age, and to contribute to the wider research and development efforts of the ML community. Here are the ungated links to the two datasets (both covered by the Creative Commons license) so that you can get started right away.
: While adding modern features like edge hopping and better training tools, it maintains the precise "crunchy" feel of the 1999 original, respecting the core physics that defined a genre.

But as time marches on, even the most beloved classics risk feeling stale. That is, until the modding community steps in. Future work should examine how ROM hacks like
. The mod is playable via emulators or on original hardware using a flash cartridge.
