Happy to announce the Majora's Mask decompilation project reached 100% completion for the US N64 version! Still tons of work to be done (other versions, more documentation, fixing fake matches, etc.), but an incredibly satisfying end to years of work. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this!

Found some very strange behavior regarding the dogs in the Doggy Racetrack in MM that's either an oversight or some bizarre intended behavior. (1/9)

Observant players of the N64 Zelda games may have noticed that the Deku Stick looks different between Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. You might think this is simply an artistic difference, but it's actually the result of a bug (1/8)

The Gorman Bros. in Majora's Mask have unused animations for walking, running, and jumping. Ingo didn't have these animations in OoT; they were newly added in MM, but were never used.

Odolwa has this strange, partially-glitched animation that is never used in the final game. Hard to tell what they were going for with this one.

I discovered another obscure Wizrobe interaction recently; you can neutralize the Fire Wizrobe's attacks with Ice Arrows. Sadly, the reverse is not true with Ice Wizrobes, but it's still pretty cool.

Might be old news to some, but you can destroy the Wizzrobe's illusions/ghosts with Deku Nuts. They play a sound effect that sounds extremely similar to Boos when you do so; I don't think this SFX appears anywhere else in the game.

The dragonflies in Majora's Mask have unused code which makes them patrol the area in large circles and make wide banking turns when they run into walls. In this video, I forced the dragonfly to do this unused behavior after every attack (1/2)

Found out today that the Goron Race in Majora's Mask has special handling for if you try to cheat it by somehow climbing over this wall to enter the goal backwards

That last RT has a lot of my thoughts about this new release but I figured I'd sincerepost a bit as well. This all really started when I saw @usedpizza stream an XY rando that was using pk3DS. It wasn't terrible, but there was obviously a *ton* of room for improvement
