Thank you :) Users have to upload their own games. You can only play games that you upload. It's like backing up your music to google drive and not sharing it with anyone :)

I was sick of this so I made an online emulation platform https://afterplay.io . It's the easiest way to play your retro games.

I built Afterplay when I wanted to be able to play Pokémon on my desktop and continue from where I left off on my iPhone later. Would love to hear your feedback and answer any questions.

Have you thought about building a site where users could order framed posters of any address they like using the output of this library? I think that would be cool

Thank you :) I sure hope so but I don't see why not. It's kind of like uploading cd backups to google drive or dropbox. Users should only upload ROMs of games they own of course.

They're based on web assembly ports of mGBA and SNES9x. The rest is built on firebase. Front end is Vue. That is really cool!

I think it's worth it. I'm at the point where I think any non apple laptop is a waste of money. I own a software consultancy and charge about $700 a day for my time. My MacBook regularly has uptimes of over a month. Sometimes I wo
