The status of the Perfect Dark decompilation, which was previously mentioned to be at 97%, has now reach its completion for the NTSC versions of the game.

Despite what the project status page depicts, the percentage of the NTSC versions, both the NTSC 1.0 and NTSC-Final, of Perfect Dark have been fully decompiled, but the reason why the status doesn't reflect the 100% percentage is due to some functions not being a byte-by-byte match to the original game's functions, but according to the developers, said mismatching functions are "functionally the same".

​

With this, a PC port could be expected later on to be worked on based on the NTSC version (most likely the Final one), as was the case with both Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

The guy in the Twitter post is fun to watch. He streams Golden Eye and Perfect Dark. I once got into one of his Perfect Dark multiplayer matches, and got my ass kicked.

I cannot wait for someone to make a mod for the decomp that turns it into Perfect Kirby. Blow my mind, Perfect Dark fans. C'mon.

Should have been Goldeneye 007...

it's at around 50% of the decompilation process

Hopefully Nintendo will manufacture more than 20 N64 switch controllers by the time (if) this gets ported to Switch

As noted elsewhere it is on the cards.
That said why? Perfect Dark can do all the same things (even has some of the same levels, bunch of the weapons and could probably be turned back into with about as much effort as most between engine ports) as well as a whole load of really nice things like co-op single player, counter op (though that might take more effort), bots in multiplayer (don't know if the bots use premade pathing or are more on the fly), bunch more options in multiplayer...
History has seen fit to have Perfect Dark be the lesser remembered game (granted not as much as the other James Bond games that generation) but it is the superior game in basically every way that matters, even more so with the code available to dodge the slowdowns.

Combat simulator is still amazing

Perfect Dark is underrated. I like it way more than Golden Eye. Golden Eye is getting decompiled too anyway.

All the N64 decompile projects are here. Looks like Banjo is next.

Looking forward to the upcoming eventual ports like Sonic Mania was handled.

Video game decomps have been flying out the door since Super Mario 64 got decompiled. I'm curious to see what incredible things people do with this game given some time.

yep especially since people are decompiling zelda games: https://zelda64.dev/ and minish cap is almost complete

 

[wolf-snake]

Damn it, and i just got an n64 with 2 controllers and this game.

 

[KeeperCP1]

That's too much decompilations!
Sonic Nexus decompilation anyone?

So many decomps but for my systems only have the supermario 64 port from my ps2 and 3ds. The others you mention only exists in pc format,I know this decomp its recently release but for other decomps than have much time there,doesnt exist for example zelda ocarina port for 3ds and ps2.

You are totally right. Though, Goldeneye was the first "real" experience with a 3D shooter on a console. Many people still remember it as one of the best games for the N64 ever. Definitely, Perfect Dark was much better, but the genre wasn't that new anymore. I personally didn't like the alien things in Perfect Dark either. Shooting bots was awesone.
Though, I do have an Xbox360 with Goldeneye XBLA. I was so excited to finally play this game with descent controls and higher graphics, but got a bit disappointed, as the memories are much better to keep than the new "real thing".
