# tp-vita: porting Twilight Princess to PS Vita

> tp-vita ports Dusklight's GameCube Twilight Princess code to PS Vita by compiling the game and JSystem sources for ARM. It retains Aurora's GX command processor and adds a vitaGL GLES2 renderer. The author reports a VPK that boots and renders in Vita3K; audio is disabled, and a memory-card prompt blocks progress past file select.
