Static recompilation of The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap to native PC, built on gbarecomp.

Boots through the BIOS intro to the title screen and into gameplay — overworld, dialogue, save states. Self-improving: code paths the static recompiler missed are interpreted once, then JIT-compiled to native in-process (no toolchain) and remembered on disk — so the game converges toward fully-native as you play, and stays improved across launches.

Run (Windows x64): extract the zip and run the .exe (SDL2 + runtime DLLs bundled). On first launch you'll be asked for your GBA BIOS dump and your Minish Cap (USA) ROM — both SHA-1 verified, paths cached.

BIOS and ROM are not included — provide your own legally-obtained dumps.
