Introducing a new emulator?

Post by Sarospa »

Hello! So, recently I have started working on an NES emulator as a bit of a hobby project. I was not planning to go into any detail about this project, since it kinda seems like 'just another NES emulator', which is why I was a bit surprised to see my name pop up in NES DEV wiki's Emulators page. I suppose it's out there now, and rather than just leaving it a big question mark, I thought I'd at least ask if folks were interested in getting a little more detail about what I'm working on. I can post more about it here, or just fill in the gaps over at the wiki. What would be most useful?

Hey, congrats on writing an emulator! Seeing your own code making super mario bros playable is pretty cool, haha!

Any time I find someone on the Internet writing a NES emulator, I add it to the page. Yup, it's that simple. There are certainly hundreds more I don't know about. It's been out of hand/out of control for a very long time.

Before editing the page (and you are absolutely encouraged to), please "review" what existing links go where and so on. In other words: please keep the syntax/formatting/layout of the information as it is currently. It's intended to be simple/concise for a reason.

I like that you have nSide, and even name the description as a fork of my NES emulator, yet don't have my NES emulator in your list :P

(I don't mind though, nSide is superior in every way. If people want to use higan for NES emulation, they'd be much better served with nSide.)

I've added it.

I put as little time into that wiki page as humanly possible. It's a bit of a double-edged sword page, for reasons I'd rather not go into.
