The PrimeDecomp community's matching decompilation of Metroid Prime, started 2022 by a volunteer team. It rebuilds the retail DOLs for GM8E01_00/01/02 (USA), GM8P01_00 (PAL), GM8J01_00 (JPN) and GM8E01_48 (KOR). Names and comments quoted in metroid-prime claims are theirs.

Notes

DELETED FROM GITHUB. The repository 404s (plain "Page not found", not a DMCA takedown page) as of 2026-10-22; the PrimeDecomp org still exists and its four decomp repos are gone (prime, echoes, corruption-proto, prime-demo). The last full Software Heritage harvest is visit 104 on 2026-10-11 (snapshot 33af10b8c014962b269793e437b1c2d02dc230c7; HEAD of main = 011c5de6, "Fix CPlayer damage vulnerability function ordering (#814)"); an earlier not_found harvest visit on 2026-09-03 shows a transient outage before that. The Wayback Machine last captured the repo page 2026-07-22 and the org page 2026-10-06 (prime listed). To pick the pinned commit back up, the lead should clone a surviving fork that still carries the full history, e.g. rzkowskii/prime (a GitHub fork whose main is 86 commits ahead of this commit and 0 behind) or jpburnett/prime (the surviving fork-network root), since the original URL is dead. README: "A work-in-progress decompilation of Metroid Prime. This repository does not contain any game assets or assembly whatsoever." Supported versions table, decomp.dev, and decomp.dev progress shields in README.
