I don't mean things like new games being announced, or old games getting remakes. I mean things like new discoveries in older games, or a secret that was finally solved, etc. Something a bit different from the usual announcements that might have been overlooked

There's a team of people called Harbour Masters who decompiled Nintendo 64 games (or used decomps from other people, I'm not sure) and recompiled them as native PC ports. So far they have done Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Mario Kart 64, Star Fox 64, and Super Mario 64. All of these games can be played without an emulator, they support widescreen and modern resolutions, and can be played at higher frame rates without issue.

There is another team of people called Linifadomra who have done the same thing, and recompiled Twilight Princess for the GameCube under the name Courage Reborn.

The actual news is that both teams, Harbour Masters and the Linifadomra, have announced that they will be working together to recompile more GameCube games. I'm not sure if Harbour Masters is done with N64 games or not, but I'm looking forward to seeing what games they will work on next.

Made some edits, I mixed up teams
