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 best part of these efforts is getting to pay without the console lag.

Playing the Aquas level on the Star Fox recompiled version at full speed felt amazing, like scratching an itch that had been out of reach for decades.

GCN was double buffered vsync for all games I think yeah. The console has 60ms of latency even on a CRT. Dolphin emulator, their latest progress report went over some efforts to combat that with frame buffer tricks. A PC port of course will beat that.
