# Street Fighter II Recompiled: a CPS1 static recompilation

> Street Fighter II Recompiled translates the CPS1 arcade game's Motorola 68000 code into C using ROM analysis, Capstone disassembly and a project-specific generator. Its native build links to a sibling CPS1 runtime for video, audio and input; the author reports reaching the character-select screen.
