What a fantastic demo! Thanks for sharing your in-depth notes about reverse-engineering the hardware's behavior. I admit, previously I didn't understand why some emulators promoted so heavily the fact that they did more hardware-accurate emulation. My relationship with old consoles is one of casual nostalgia, and a crash-free experience was all I asked for, one devoid of glaring visual glitches or inopportune jerkiness as you're being attacked by a boss. That's a decent goal too, but just like the demoscene attempts to push the hardware and software to the ultimate edge of the envelope, I now better appreciate the developers who have taken extra care to mimic the exact operating quirks of the original. Resources like these help build the body of knowledge for new and existing developers, and help raise the bar of what the community desires as well.
