Game decompilations using AI

[Ravenfreak]

Lately there's been an influx on people using Claude to port oldschool games to PC. It's hard to keep up with all the projects that have popped up within the past month or two. As someone who ROM hacks, I think it's somewhat cool that people are able to do this but at the same time I know those ports aren't optimized and could cause some serious memory leaks and issues down the line if these people who are making these decompilations and ports don't know what they're doing. (Which is the case for probably 99% of these projects.) What do you think about all these projects popping up? Do you think this fad will cause companies to be more concerned about AI? I can imagine Nintendo is probably cease and desisting projects left and right now.

I think it's great! Bring back the older games. Maybe corporations will get their collective heads out of their asses and actually port these games over the right way (with human beings doing the work).
