Interesting! I'd like to hear a bit more about the tech stack. Which browser based emulators did you chose?

One of the most interesting trends in retro gaming is the use of upsampling filters. Purists don't particularly like ROM hacks. But if they can get access to original hardware / carts. They can pass the analog signal through a device that renders in glorious HD.

I often thought it would make a cool cloud based video streaming service ;)

They're based on web assembly ports of mGBA and SNES9x. The rest is built on firebase. Front end is Vue.

That is really cool!
