- ReXGlue is an Xbox 360 static recompilation tool, transforming PowerPC code to native C++ ahead of time, enabling PC ports.
- ReXGlue uses Xenia's codebase but replaces JIT with AOT compilation, aiming for native subsystems like rendering, audio, and modding support.
- Tom, the creator, is piloting Blue Dragon recompilation, showcasing performance gains and multi-disc functionality.
- ReXGlue is not just an emulator but a platform, allowing deeper optimizations and native integration impossible with JIT.
- An N64RecompLauncher organizes and updates recompilation projects, including experimental games and custom ports.
- Emulator updates: Citra becomes a Libretro core, ShadPS4 v0.15 prepares for Bloodborne netplay, PPSSPP adds savestate undo, RPCS3 adds Steam integration.
- MiSTer updates include SNES rumble/save states and HDMI power-down on idle.
- Translations released for PS1 game Blaze & Blade Busters and SG-1000 title Sherlock Holmes: Loretta's Portrait.
