A complete community decompilation of Super Mario 64 covering the Japan, North America, Europe, Shindou, and iQue releases, written in C. It rebuilds byte-identical ROMs from a user-supplied base ROM, whose assets are extracted during the build.

Use cases

• rebuild a byte-identical Super Mario 64 ROM from source
• study decompiled N64 MIPS assembly as readable C code
• create mods and ROM hacks of Super Mario 64
• port Super Mario 64 to other platforms
• learn reverse engineering of retro game consoles

When to choose

• you own a Super Mario 64 ROM and want to compile a matching ROM from source
• you want readable C source for research, modding, or porting
• you want the canonical, most complete SM64 decompilation base

When to avoid

• you don't have an original game ROM, since assets must be extracted from it
• you want a ready-to-play game rather than a source tree
• you need a Windows-native toolchain without WSL or Docker
