On: Zelda: Majora's Mask is now a native PC game, and every N64 title could follow

It explicitly says that you do need the ROMs, though. The software is all original and it extracts resources from the ROMs. It's useless otherwise, you can't use these to play SM64, OOT, or MM on PC without also obtaining the ROMs.

I missed that. Where does this article say that?

Second paragraph:

That's not "software is all original" or "extracts resources from the ROMs".

[lttlrck → c-hendricks]

to be fair that would also cover verifying the ROM file with a checksum. It might not read any assets.

I too suspect that's all it does. But we'll see.
