Decompilation progress report for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Given how fervent Zelda fans are, we'll see PC ports pretty fast I think.

The code for the game has been decompiled. From my understanding that means it's now readable and can be ported over to other places with some work. What that means is that a true "PC Version" can be made, which will have the ability to support things like widescreen/high resolution, high framerates, native keyboard/controller support as well as whatever mods people feel like developing (new maps, new modes, etc) - in the case of Mario 64, when this happened people got to work on a Multiplayer version, which works really well. So it opens up a lot of possibilities.
