       | Run Area 5150 at 60fps on your phone!
       | 
       | Almost every feature from the desktop version is present if
       | practical:
       | 
       | - View the realtime state of nearly every component of the
       | system. - View live disassembly of CPU instructions. - Edit
       | registers and memory. - Slow down or speed up the system. - Peek
       | on how games draw their graphics with the Memory Visualizer.

       | I'm on mobile right now so I can only comment on the demo that
       | runs automatically, which I understand isn't the _point_. :)

       | 
       | I look forward to checking out the features you mention on a
       | proper computer.
