       | That being said, it's always good to see new contributions to the
       | emudev scene and your project seems well developed. Keep at it!

         | recent enough to qualify.)

       | I remember Nesticle was the first emulator that felt like
       | cknsymer software, and it was so cool to be able to just run a
       | NES game on a PC. We've come a long way
