Project64 is a free and open-source Nintendo 64 emulator written in the programming languages C and C++ for Microsoft Windows.[3] This software uses a plug-in system allowing third-party groups to use their own plug-ins to implement specific components. Project64 can play Nintendo 64 games on a computer reading ROM images, either dumped from the read-only memory of a Nintendo 64 ROM cartridge or created directly on the computer as homebrew.[4]
Project64 was considered one of the top performing emulators and the most popular Nintendo 64 emulator in 2013.[5][6] The program is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2.
