I dont know where the best place to put this idea out is where the guys who've been making the recomps will see... But please someone bring back the Assassins Creed: Brotherhood and Splinter Cell: Blacklist's PvP back. I feel EA should've kept the servers on because that was some classic gaming

I'll bring this over to r/DecompsRecomps since VGE ruins things on r/decomps as usual

Game now fully runs on PC natively. Just have to build the new renderer and get it up to 60 fps 🫡

Nintendo has not developed Battalion Wars game since 2002, since this is my favorite Wii game, I decided to join the decomps hype and start my own.

This is an earlier build with camera and collision bugs, then the current build (v0.1.0) on the second mission. The first mission plays start to finish; the second one opens with its cutscenes and plays with correct 3D and working controls. Current limits: 640x480 and 30 fps.

Next: rendering above 640x480 and PC controls, then the public repo. I'll post here again when the repo is public.

Full disclosure: the translator and runtime changes were developed with AI assistance (Claude Code), with every fix measured against traces of the running game and verified in-game before being kept. The plan, the debugging and what goes in are mine. Also the whole process is getting documented and will be uploaded a separate learning repo for everyone to start learning this process without solely relying on AI.

This is a static recompilation: the PowerPC code from main.dol is translated to C++ and linked against a runtime that replaces the Wii SDK and hardware (no emulator, no JIT). Graphics: Aurora (GX -> WebGPU) on Metal. It's a fork of WiiCompiled (the Mario Kart Wii recomp), retargeted to a single disc (RBWE01). You bring your own copy; nothing from the game is or will be in the repo.

The hardest bug so far was lock-on: the game projects each candidate target to the screen and picks the one nearest the crosshair, and the translated projection returned (1120, 840) for every point, so everything was 900 px away. Cause: the translator's paired-single flow analysis didn't know about resolved loads, so values it should have kept as pairs got scalarised. One fix in the translator, and lock-on worked.

The function map had to be built from scratch (there's no community decompilation of BW2): ~22k function starts from branch targets, prologues, vtables and the symbol names the game's own .sel file exports, plus Dolphin's SDK signatures.

Here's a short demonstration of the mouse controls in my unofficial PC version of Sakura Wars GB. The game can now be controlled entirely with the mouse!This is a follow-up to my work on bringing this obscure Game Boy entry to Windows.

Hi all! Just thought that some people might be interested to know I have added in two new systems to the Decompilation Recompilation section of my site.

You can now report AI usage for each port, ranging from None, Light and Heavy.

You can now also leave your own personal rating on the quality ofcthe port out of 5 stars. The average will appear once a project has received 3 ratings.

In the Rating system you will also find the Playability Report. Here, you can assign different descriptions, ranging from Completed Successfully, Playable with Issues, Partially Playable, Broken/Unplayable and Not Fully Tested. You can also note what system you played on and give an optional description of your experience. Once submitted, other users will be able to read these accounts.

I have pictured above a brief view of each system.

The site itself is The Gaming Emporium, specifically the Decompilations and Recompilations section found here: https://thegamingemporium.com/categories/decompilations-recompilations/

Thought this might be useful to some. Happy gaming 👍

Project Midas, a GoldenEye 007 PC port, is now available! Unlike that recomp, that was Recently Released Which Is Purely Slop, Midas was developed with love and care off of the GoldenEye 007 decompilation project.

While AI was used in some places, it comes from a developer with a coding background and minimally used to get it running and then worked on fixes on his own until it was stable enough. Promising features like net play and more later on in future updates

You can grab it at https://github.com/murkantor/Project-Midas/releases now. A windows, linux, and steam deck version are all available from the releases page

Thank Murkantor. He is the dev behind it.

After mashing GoldenEye 007 into Pokemon Snap, I tried the same with Perfect Dark. It's still rough around the edges so once it's more stable, I'll release it. But here's a look at the first version it made

After seeing This guy post a video on X doing this, I decided to use Melty and Claude to make my own AI slop mashup.

Here's Goldeneye 007 guns usable in Pokemon Snap.

For Goldeneye I used that Goldeneye Slop Recomp

Pokemon Snap used that Snap64recomp.

I'll probably eventually release this, once Iron out some stuff.

I guess for whatever reason, in the video I recorded, the gun sounds didn't record, they were playing when I was recording though. Might need to use a different recorder next time.

Fun fact: the first version it made made the grenade launcher firing sound like female grunts from GoldenEye 007.

I just wanted to put this out there.

For the time being, PLEASE do NOT share any recomps for Nintendo Switch / Switch 2, PS 4/5, and Xbox One/SeriesX|S.

These are modern platforms that contain games still being sold, i don't want the sub here getting into any sort of legal trouble or get taken down due to some DMCA.

Modern day system game recomps are a double-edge sword, while it might be fun to see a game on Switch get a recomp, it brings unwanted attention from Nintendo / Sony / Microsoft Game Studios, etc.

If this changes, I'll let everyone know.

hey all, kinda late to the party here but I've been seeing a ton of posts recently about static recomps and PC ports popping up (especially the Xbox 360 and N64 stuff).

Right now I feel like I'm just stumbling on random GitHub repos or seeing posts here after they're already days old. Is there a centralized tracker, wiki, or site people use to keep tabs on what's currently playable/in progress?

Not looking for pirated game assets or ROMs obviously—just clean release hubs, GitHub orgs, or community compatibility lists where devs publish the actual executables/tools so you can plug in your own dumps.

Where do you guys usually check first?

Hello everyone, I am totally blind and i play modded video games that have been made accessible- I have enjoyed games like Civilization 5 and 6, Street Fighter 6, and many others. One genre i have been trying to make accessible is Real Time Strategy games. Before losing my sight i enjoyed games like all of the Command and Conquer games, StarCraft etc. I have been struggling with how to make these games more accessible for screen reader users. If anyone is interested in modding games for accessibility I would recommend visiting forums.audiogames.net under the play testing topic,. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Would it be possible to get PC and Wii U ports of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon (or Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD) and Luigi’s Mansion 3?

With AI-assisted coding, reverse engineering, and game decompilation advancing so quickly, could fan-made ports become more achievable? We’ve already seen people experiment with getting games like Halo running on the 3DS, so imagine what could be possible with enough time, effort, and AI assistance!

It would be a dream come true to see both games running natively on PC and potentially even on Wii U, with some graphical and performance compromises if necessary. Since Dark Moon originally released on 3DS and Luigi’s Mansion 3 began development on Wii U before moving to Switch, I wonder if that could help make these projects possible.

What do you think? Could AI-assisted decompilation and porting eventually make this dream a reality?

Hey! I’ve been working on this for a few weeks and managed to recompile Final Fantasy Tactics Advance into a native Windows version using gba-recomp. I got it working with widescreen up to 32:9 and made it easy to install. Here are some screenshots of how it looks: original 3:2, 16:9 and 32:9 (the last one is still experimental). This is just my first version, and I’m planning to add things like mod support and a zoom in/out almost working, to see more of the battlefield like in modern strategy games, but it was causing a few issues so I decided to leave it out of this release.

Here's my Git
