    Plus MSU-1 Support for CD Audio

    Rumbleminze, a fan of all things retro tech, is co-author of the Kid Icarus Randomizer romhack and whose recent work includes porting NES games to run natively on the SNES. You can follow these and other projects via Rumbleminze’s IA, Github, YouTube, or Ko-Fi.
