Thank you for all you have done with this emulator....it takes great amounts of balls to cater to some of us demanding emulation freaks out there.....*thinks back* i'll have to ask AmyGRRL if the save folder issue was taken care of or not....
either way, Mahalo Nui Loa.
as for emulations being "dead", Xport is still actively releasing updated/bug fixed emulators, and as few as 6 months ago released NEW emulators....i can't call that dead. I know that Team Logic Sunrise continue to work on Final Burn Alpha XXX, and with that also comes FBA-XXX Pro. And i recently found out about an update to a well loved emulator being worked on (well, it was finished actually) that i haven't seen here on the front page of X-S....i'm sure there is a reason for it, so i won't talk about it, but hopefully i'll be trying it out in a couple of hours.
So yeah, look around and you'll see a lot of coders still hard at work at one of the best systems created (not for its own games, but for its hackability)....and while you are at it, take some time to thank people still actively involved in the scene, especially Xport, as well as those who have retired from it, for providing you joy and asking little/nothing in return.
And while you're at that, thank your moderators, hackers, and site owners as well....without them keeping such a tight ship, you guys wouldn't even know about most of this stuff, i'm sure.
Kudos to Nes for all you've done. Kudos to Xport for all he's done. Kudos to X-S and its staff for all you're continuing to do.
okay, enough ass kissing for one day....i'm gonna see Nes off with a farewell session of Link to the Past.
