A customised emulator setup specifically to run Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark in 60fps, widescreen support, keyboard and mouse controls, support for HD texture packs.
IMHO it’s the definitive way to experience these games on modern hardware. I’ve tried running both on my steam deck and the controls just don’t translate well to a comfortable experience so prefer this.
It’s great! But there are some frustrating parts in the game like escort missions. Or janky psychics where a wall don’t blow up because, well I don’t know. It just didn’t one time.

Honestly, its probably a good thing they canceled it. They were going to butcher that perfect game.
But also FYI, Perfect Dark is available on Nintendo Switch Online as a Nintendo 64 +17 Mature title, along with Turok and Turok 2
Is it a good port? I really enjoy turok 2 on PS4, would love to play perfect dark on something better than an N64.
You should play the Project64 GEPD project.

Sorry. Im not sure what would make it a good or bad port. Im not familiar with what the differences would be.
It was originally released on N64 and the Switch Online N64 mode seems fine. It feels like the original game.
The best way to play it is with mouse & KB using the 1964 emulator GEPD version, imo.

The decomp port is nice too.
Didn’t know about that. I’ll have to check it out.
