...and will continue to.

I like taking a look at history in general, but especially with electronics. Seeing how far we've come fascinates me. Plus I know that my ability to #emulate and play older games has given me appreciation for them. Doing that with the #Atari2600 sparked it, and it continued from there over the years.

Plus I am fascinated with not only "good" games, but bad ones. So bad it's good, bad mediocre, etc. Bootlegs, trash games, their story. Maybe it's too much #Vinesauce.

So, I don't follow #Vinesauce closely, but I do watch on occasion. And at one point, Vinny did a stream where he was playing #SuperMarioBros levels made with LevelHeaded, using #SuperMarioBrosDX graphics, and then running a corruptor on them. This video was in turn referenced in the *amazing* #ROMHack "Mario's Mystery Meat". So at this point I feel like I need to give at least a little nod back.

This is still a work in progress, but will be an optional patch in the next release.
