I don’t mean things like new games being announced, or old games getting remakes. I mean things like new discoveries in older games, or a secret that was finally solved, etc. Something a bit different from the usual announcements that might have been overlooked
I recently watched a 1 hour YouTube video about how some streamer (Werster? )has been cheating at Pokemon Emerald Battle Factory.
The fact that this community still exists in 2026 is surprising but not too shocking.

There’s a team of people called Harbour Masters who decompiled Nintendo 64 games (or used decomps from other people, I’m not sure) and recompiled them as native PC ports. So far they have done Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, Mario Kart 64, Star Fox 64, and Super Mario 64. All of these games can be played without an emulator, they support widescreen and modern resolutions, and can be played at higher frame rates without issue.
There is another team of people who have done the same thing, and recompiled Twilight Princess for the GameCube under the name Dusklight.
The actual news is that both teams, Harbour Masters and the Dusklight team, have announced that they will be working together to recompile more GameCube games. I’m not sure if Harbour Masters is done with N64 games or not, but I’m looking forward to seeing what games they will work on next.

News to me they’re joining forces, but that’s extremely exciting!

I mixed up the Dusklight team with the Courage Reborn team, so I went and fixed my other comment. I only follow Harbour Masters so I saw their announcement, not sure if Linifadomra has made an announcement

Oh that sounds cool! I recently played the dusk light recomp of Twilight Princess on steam deck. Would be great to have more GameCube games to play!
