Sorry but what? Half-Life on an N64?? it looks incredible!

There's an explosion of N64 ports lately, with a huge mix of new libraries (libdragon) pure fan passion, and LLM assistance.

Some I'm tracking:

- Duke Nukem 3D (ie, the fully-functional PC version) https://github.com/BigChat88/N64DukeNukem3DPort

- Portal 64 Still alive https://github.com/mwpenny/portal64-still-alive

- Resident Evil 64 (ie, not RE2, but the first one) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xRiwy8Z6S0

- Silent Hill (still an early WIP) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7fM06jmHso

I haven't personally tested, but these look interesting:

- Simpsons Arcade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH9JYQVzKDE

- X-men Arcade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah3nB8MP4CM

- TMNT Arcade Collection https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiR5-ZpLtyI

At this point, they're coming out faster than I can play them. I'm in the middle of the 2nd Episode of Duke 3D right now and it's quite nice. The original 64 version was always fun, but mid-level saves are really a game changer.

There's an explosion of ALL ports lately. It's crazy.

Ocarina of Time only got released today officially but it's already playable on ARM Macs. It's not even a port per se but executing the Switch ARM code natively. And of course it's also playable on emulators regardless of the platform
