SSB-X: a Super Smash Bros. port for the original Xbox

SSB-X ports the N64 Super Smash Bros. to the original Xbox using an existing Dreamcast port's game code. It reimplements the Dreamcast port's PowerVR, AICA, controller, storage and threading services on Xbox hardware, while generating game content from the user's US ROM during the build.
