Decompilation of Paper Mario for N64
SM64 uses SGI's IRIS Development Option (IDO) compiler. And yes, it's unoptimised.
Paper Mario, however, /does/ use GCC, and it's optimised. Figuring out the compiler version was fairly easy as there's a limited number of options - we know when the game began development, so we looked for releases around that time. The harder parts were figuring out compiler flags (consider all the -f flags affecting code generation; papermario used -fforce-addr) and coming to the terrifying conclusion that the compiler was modified!
The majority of papermario was built with a modified build of GCC 2.8.1 [1] at -O2. The SDK code (libultra, nusystem) was built with GCC 2.7.2 at -O3. The iQue Player version, i.e. the Chinese release, was built with EGCS.
