Sure, you could probably write an awesome new AI for black and white but you could also write an awesome 3d renderer for the original Mario World.

My point was that the AI is really core to the game, and I am not sure how they would replicate it in an accurate manner. If you wrote a new AI it would be a different game.

What I meant was that it will not be that hard to replicate. It might feel complicated and deep but most likely isn't that complex. Sure - without analyzing the original source code (which isn't legally available as far as I know) - it might be impossible to recreate the exact behavior, but it should be possible to mimic the behavior - it might just take a few attempts to fine tune the input parameters.
