This news is a couple of weeks old, so you may know already, but...

It's probably a bit of an arbitrary distinction in some ways, but exciting to see nevertheless, and a great reason to celebrate the amazing efforts that the developers have put into this over the years.

Hooray! ScummVM makes me so happy.

It finally has a good looking GUI. I noticed a couple problems/showstoppers I had with a few games are fixed now. Nice to see that level of devotion to these antiques.

I'd say that DOSbox is just as an important emulator as MAME. Also ScummVM doesn't use emulation, being a VM it runs everything natively on whatever platform that its ported to.
I agree with Zylon, it's about fucking time that Mothra started using the in-line spell checker built into Firefox or whatever. Also what the hell is it with Mothra ignoring spacing in game titles? (Eg AlphaProtocol, MassEffect.) Other non-native English speakers like Koki and Kolya don't seem to have this problem and in fact have better language skills than some native English speakers here.

I was just going to say that his English has actually improved quite a bit from whichever point in time he started being outspoken here. He makes a hell of a lot more sense now than massimassagemisalami ever did.
In any case, it's not like a word like MAME wouldn't flag in a spell-checker.

i didn't bother to correct it. I don't represent myself here, only my digital echo which is of low standards. but this belongs into the comm chat, doesn't it ? i thought this was about scumm vm 1.0.
