Now that is a cool addition. More actual changes to the game lineup that the main 0.130 release had. Just keeps getting better and better. However I only ever upgrade with each main release so I will wait until 0.131 is released.

However I only ever upgrade with each main release so I will wait until 0.131 is released.

Me too, and I think that's quite often enough because I don't use it every day, and of course I have hundreds of other collections to upgrade

[Harrison]

Which is the reason you never actually play any game. All your spare time is spent updating the collections!

I'm currently (since already 3 hours) updating all my emulators, I didn't do that for several years now, so I thought now would be the time

(Quite a lot of work )

[Harrison]

Quite a lot of emulators out there though, and if you haven't updated them in so long many now look and work very differently, and have many new cool features.

I've been playing around with the latest version of MESS recently and that has come a long way, able to emulate a lot of systems now.
