isn't NSRT itself closed source and ZSNES open source?

Yes, for the time being anyway.

The new website is almost ready. NSRT 4 rewrite is 20% done.

Nach: Awesome on both accounts. Looking forward to it greatly.

Any new features, or just code refactoring?

NSRT seemed quite complete to me.

Both.
Many new features I wanted to add need the rewrite.

do we get any clues, or do we have to just wait with bated breath?

i was also under the impression that nsrt development had seemed to stop because it was "done."

...

sorry if this is a repeated question, but is the-emulator-formerly-known-as-ZSNES 2.0 codebase going to be 100% C, or will there still be chunks of ASM for speed/sanity-preserving purposes?

You wait.

Ever noticed when I post NSRT info it says 3.5, but the last released version is 3.4?

Well, we're eliminating a lot of assembly. We're even in some cases focusing on making some code Endian Independent. So we'll see.

Weren't you converting it all to FORTRAN?

FORTRAN sadly doesn't support "CODE DOESN'T SUCK", an important define needed to empower the voodoo.

that and dead kittens

And here I was thinking more along the line of BASIC.

Lispsnes plays your games for you.

Ugh, zsnes (btw i'm too stupid to learn the name of the emulator) is as dead as a camal lying dead in the sun with vultures flying over it. It still plays your snes games, though.

The Nintendo Wii will also do that for you in the near future.
