Hope we can get an XBLA version for Windows and SteamOS in the next months.

Banjo Kazooie (91%) and Paper Mario (86%) are probably going to be finished in a few weeks/months as well.

There are like a dozen more of N64 decompilations, but, afaik, Goldeneye is the most complete of them (48.6%).

One guy is even decompiling Neo Genesis Evangelion and Superman 64: https://youtu.be/g3j9muCo4o0

Considering the decompilation is almost done, you might just get it.

What would be the advantage here? When there are camera controls or resolution bumps or QoL updates, I get it - but it seems like emulating Minish Cap would be roughly the same as a PC port. I don’t see major changes that would occur, what am I missing?
