What's so embarrassing? Emulation for backward compatibility is done all the times

[-] Bezier@suppo.fi 21 points 1 month ago

I guess people are assuming it runs whatever third party emulator. It was at least how I first imagined it.

If that's the case, it's in my opinion very embarrassing: attempting to profit from stuff made by the community they act extremely hostile towards.

If not, I guess it's just mildly embarrassing that they have a poorly concealed windows machine taking away from the immersion.

I read through the article, only speculation but since the sound is without a doubt the USB being disconnected then it's pretty obvious an Windows machine running a rom.

Well yeah, but it might as well be their own in-house emulator.

They really should have used their own PC OS
