Mario Strikers Charged Decompilation

About

A work-in-progress matching decompilation of Mario Strikers Charged for the Nintendo Wii. It reconstructs source code that compiles to an executable byte-for-byte identical to the retail USA release (R4QE01, disc revision 1). It is not a recompilation or a port, and it contains no game assets or assembly.

Getting started

You must provide your own legally obtained disc image of the USA release, placed in the orig folder (ISO, RVZ, WIA, WBFS, CISO, NFS, GCZ and TGC images are supported). Run configure.py and ninja; a successful build ends with an OK line for main.dol. The objdiff tool can then be used for diffing.

History

The author says the game shipped without debug information and that much of its code seemed to be carried over from Super Mario Strikers. AI was used mainly to match this game's translation units to likely donor classes from that predecessor's decompilation and to review those matches.
