Nebula translates Super Mario Galaxy's PowerPC code into C++ and runs it natively on Windows with a Direct3D 12 renderer. It hit 1.0 on October 13, and its README is candid: the recompiler, runtime and installer were written by AI agents, directed by the author.
GoldenEye 007 is running on PC as a native port, not an emulator. Project Midas delivers 120 FPS, an 80 degree FOV, reticle colours, a mod loader, co-op and multiplayer profiles, and a five hour showcase says 1.0 is close.
Someone turned a jailbroken PlayStation 5 into a local AI workstation. PS5LM ports llama.cpp to the console's GPU through Vulkan, running Qwen 3.8 27B at around 20 tokens per second, with a model store, a TV dashboard, and an OpenAI-compatible API.
Microsoft's new “Xbox Labs” is not a research group — it's a fire alarm. The company that killed its storefronts, froze backwards compatibility, closed its studios and re-sold you your own games just admitted the decompilation scene is beating it. Good. We don't need them anymore.
A new hypervisor-level exploit, Byepervisor Reborn, defeats the PS5 hypervisor on firmware 13.60 and below using an S3-resume AP-launch bug (HCALL 0x0f). With hypervisor memory now writable, the path to running Linux natively on retail PS5 hardware is finally open.
The 1999 N64 brawler that launched a franchise is coming to PC as a native static recompilation. Built on Mr-Wiseguy's N64Recomp, Smash 64: Recompiled promises ultrawide UI, low input lag, and day-one mod support — with Smash Remix in tow.
Developer elmonomalvad0 has released AnyPad PS5 v0.8.1-beta on Codeberg. With sub-second pairing, GameSir G7 SE verification, custom PS button mapping, and 12 languages, jailbroken PS5s can wirelessly connect Xbox, Switch, and 8BitDo pads with zero USB dongles.
In an era where publishers preach that 'you will own nothing,' the PS5 jailbreak scene delivered the ultimate counter-punch: direct playback of original PlayStation 2 physical discs on PlayStation 5 hardware via PS5SX2, running at 4K 120 FPS straight from spinning optical media.
Astro Bot has achieved a massive 7x performance leap on the KytyPS5 emulator. Running on Jetsku's fork, Musashi demonstrated the PS5 exclusive hitting 50 FPS at 4K with unlocked 144Hz frames and active Ray Tracing, alongside new native Trophy support.
Oliver Sauter's browser-based Super Mario 64 multiplayer just went viral, and a massive update just dropped: 12-player roaming, live WebRTC video chat, private invite rooms, leaderboards, and an expanded roster featuring Bowser Jr, Luigi, Yoshi, and Wario with zero installation.
