What was done
A static recompilation of The Simpsons Wrestling (SLUS-01227) for Windows and Linux, enabling native execution, widescreen support, 60 FPS gameplay, and HD rendering without emulation.
The Simpsons Wrestling Recompiled is a project that translates the original PlayStation game code into native C code for execution on modern PC hardware. The project utilizes the psxrecomp tool to achieve native performance, bypassing traditional emulation. The README documents that the port supports 16:9 widescreen, HD rendering up to 8K, and a 60 FPS frame rate while maintaining original game speed through movement fix logic. The project includes a launcher that manages disc image verification, graphics settings, and controller remapping. The author reports that the Linux AppImage has been tested under WSL, but notes it has not yet been verified on native Linux installations or the Steam Deck. Known limitations include graphical artifacts in the ring spotlight during experimental 120 FPS mode and UI positioning issues when pausing in widescreen. Commit history credits Claude Opus 5.5 as a co-author for various development tasks. Users must provide their own North American disc image (SLUS-01227) to generate the game files. See the official repository for full details.
