PayPalFrom the HarbourMasters team is another Nintendo PC port, this time it's Super Mario 64. HarbourMasters previously released ports for Mario Kart 64, Star Fox 64, Zelda: Majora's Mask and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
With the Super Mario 64 PC port being announced January 18th, there's not currently a Native Linux build but the release page notes "Linux coming Very Soon". Not supported by Nintendo in any way like all previous PC ports, the source code is available under the MIT license thanks to the libultraship project.

I was under the impression we already had a PC port of Super Mario 64.
Anyway, good news.

Quoting: Cley_FayeI was under the impression we already had a PC port of Super Mario 64.We do but a lot of those have been rather all-over-the-place and required you to compile them yourself, at least that's been my experience. Many were abandoned pretty much right after they were playable.
Anyway, good news.

Quoting: Cley_FayeI was under the impression we already had a PC port of Super Mario 64.Not just one, a bunch of them. But all of them required being manually compiled and their featuresets (some supported mods, some didn't, some only supported some mods, among other things) and naming convention made them somewhat confusing. Also, none of them were portable either. A port from HarbourMasters promises better support overall and better configurability.
Anyway, good news.
Now we wait for the mods to get ported over... eventually.

The best two versions of super mario 64 ported to PC, that I know about are. Neither require compiling unless you want too.

This is the best if you want single player only. Has tons of ingame options to tweak how you want it to play, including just vanilla 64.
Has ports of a few big mods, including...
Super Mario 64 Moonshine
Super Mario 74 + Extreme Edition
Super Mario Star Road
Super Mario 64: The Green Stars
