# Nagano Winter Olympics '98: matching Nintendo 64 decompilation

> Nagano Winter Olympics '98 decompilation reconstructs the USA Nintendo 64 release with compiled source and a mapped ROM data region. Its verification commands compare relocated program bytes with a user-provided retail ROM, while analysis files classify and reproduce non-code intervals. The author reports complete byte matching for catalogued functions and initialized data.
