# RumbleRecomp: a Windows static recompilation of Poke Rumble

> RumbleRecomp builds a Windows version of Poke Rumble from the user's USA WiiWare WAD. It statically recompiles the game's PowerPC code to C, compiles it with clang, and runs it on a patched Dolphin and ModernGekko runtime. The port adds widescreen display, save states, controller support and optional texture packs.
