Well, as I said, I like the idea AI-recompilation being used as a tool to help bring older or hindered games to more public access. Not as a replacement.

Take my "Golden Axe Origins" or "Shinobi Origins" ideas for example, yes it would take years, perhaps over a decade to remake all those games HD and for modern platforms, while Claude could perhaps do it in a day or two.
Granted, Sega asked MATABOO to remaster SHOGUN 2 for them in under a year, a crazy crunch-time they acknowledged themselves, and MATABOO screwed Sega over by AI-recompiling SHOGUN 2, with vibe-errors making it a beta-mess.
Which is why all the more important why AI-recompiling should be used as a tool than entirely relied upon. Such as taking a day to recompile each game, and the rest of the week to check-over errors, clean-up and put together into compilation.

But, yeah, with how MATABOO screwed Sega over and with AI being such a hot subject for both gamers and developers, I understand why Sega will be hesitant to touch AI for now on.

Meanwhile there are fans of old or abandon-ware games with the "Fine, I will do it myself!" mentality now that Claude and AI-recompiling is available to them.

I myself, am tempted to get Claude and ask it if it can both recompile and make VR "Rise of Nightmares", the only reason why I've yet to decide it is because I figure I need the £15 Pro version for it. But I dunno if I'll end up opening my own Pandora's box over it. That and I don't have a VR-headset yet.

I don't think it's worth it if you're not really really really want to do it. Also we must be careful too.
Recompiling, decompiling, or reverse-engineering video games sits in a complex and risky legal gray area that depends heavily on how the project is built, whether copyrighted assets are redistributed, and our jurisdiction.
Sure no game companies are taking actions now since they're old games, but the "recompiling, decompiling, or reverse-engineering video games' trend right now don't stop at just old games, they are also doing it to Switch 2 games like Mario Kart World and both Zelda games.
Who knows if Nintendo or any other game company is preparing lawsuit right now.

Wasn't the switch 2 already broken into via AI recompiling? Or am I mistaken?

Yes, with the help of AI, that's why many AI companies (including Anthropic of course) are taking action now. I guess they're also afraid of Nintendo's lawyers jumping action on them.

Anthropic Is Blocking Claude From Making Game Clones 🤖🎮

Anthropic has updated Claude Opus 5.5 to stop users from recreating specific existing games, even if the game is renamed or presented as an “original” project. The restriction also affects some game ports, recompilation, and reverse-engineering work.

The change is meant to prevent Claude from being used to infringe existing IP, but developers have reported cases where legitimate projects are being blocked as well.

I would say "fun while it lasted", but I only saw a few games that caught my interest over it.

It's hard finding something interesting now. Even Steam is now full of AI shovelwares.
49.9% of all new games released on Steam in October 2026 disclosed using AI-generated content (not all of them shovelwares of course, but mostly are).
It was only 1.7% of games in January 2024.

That's just the way of "progress" I imagine. Once fire was discovered, we couldn't go back without. Once electricity was harnessed, we can't just stop using it.

The progress that many gamers hate (for now). Latest Steam Next Fest in October have faced a massive influx of low-effort, AI-generated content—often referred to as "AI slop" or asset flips. It featured over 8,000 demos, with roughly one in three submissions disclosing the use of generative AI (up from about one in five in earlier events). Still thankfully Valve has stated they are "fully aware of the situation" and that the platform's recommendation algorithms and review systems are under strain, otherwise Steam could be the next Google Play Store.

When Nikola Tesla created means to harness electricity, his business rival Thomas Edison villainize electricity by executing a dog with it. So there were some who did not take to electricity straight away or feared it.

And when it comes "AI slop", well, there will always be a market for human-products. Just because we have art programs like PhotoShop or GIMP, doesn't mean hand-drawn art is entirely abandoned. Hell, I wish cinema would bring back more vintage means of filmmaking over digital filters all movies these days.

Hand-drawn art is definitely not abandoned, they are just easily stolen now.
Some etsy seller straight up stole artists' artworks and back then they could be detected easily.
But right now they're now modifying the artworks using AI and those are hard to track.
