Nintendo 64

The Nintendo 64 has a MIPS CPU and one of the oldest and best-documented decomp communities. Most games were built with SGI’s IDO compiler or with GCC.

What this page will cover

• The CPU and the compilers: IDO versions and flags, and GCC-built games.
• Splitting a ROM with splat, and how a typical project is laid out.
• Drafting with m2c (mips targets) and diffing with asm-differ or objdiff.
• libultra, the SDK, and why projects share its matched code.
• Overlays and compressed segments.
