This iconic Nintendo 64 game has just been decompiled, full PC port is on the way

Fans have successfully decompiled the classic Nintendo 64 game Banjo-Kazooie, enabling an anticipated PC port. This process involved translating the original game's code into the 'C' programming language, allowing it to run on modern hardware without emulation. Originally released in 1997 by Rare, Banjo-Kazooie is known for its 3D platforming and whimsical charm. Players will need a copy or ROM of the original game to use the decompiled code, which does not include the original art and music. The decompilation allows for potential enhancements such as widescreen support, 4K resolution, uncapped frame rates, and community-created mods. Banjo-Kazooie has previously been ported to Xbox and is part of Nintendo's Nintendo 64 library for the Switch.

Banjo-Kazooie N64 has been decompiled, opening the door for PC ports | VGC

The Nintendo 64 game Banjo-Kazooie has been fully decompiled, achieving 100% completion in a fan project. This decompilation involves converting the original game code into C code, allowing for a playable PC version. Enhancements possible with the decompiled code include improved frame rates, ultra-wide screen support, 4K resolution, and ray tracing. Players must provide their own legally-sourced Nintendo 64 ROM for the game, as the decompilation process extracts assets from it. A tool called N64: Recompiled has been introduced to facilitate the conversion of N64 binaries into C code, although manual adjustments may still be needed. This success follows other decompilation projects for games like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask.
