Zelda N64 Decompilations and Recompliations on Apple Silicon (WIP)

Besides Super Mario 64, the two Zelda games on my Nintendo 64 are high ranking in my forever games list. Even more than Super Mario 64, these games had severe technical limitations on the console and criminally low fps. The two projects I want to present here are still in beta, but seem both stable enough to advertise. They provide unprecedented gaming experience for Ocarina of Time and Majora‘s Mask.

My two favorite N64 games besides Super Mario 64, you can see the passage of time ...

Disclaimer: Legally you require to own the games.

The two solutions I want to present here are

• Ocarina of Time: Ship of Harkinian (SOH) Decompilation - https://www.shipofharkinian.com

Metal backend with 60fps, re-textured including models

• Majora's Mask: Zelda Recompilation - https://github.com/Zelda64Recomp/Zelda64Recomp

The newest version 1.2 provides similar options as SOH - retextures are also breathtaking

For sure, any screenshot cannot merit the actual experience when playing these games, but I hope that it's a sufficient teaser. As always, I want to focus on own experience, but would not repeat the original installation instructions.
