RetroArch is being ported to Windows 98/2000

So apparently this is a thing. I didn't think that developers still cared about Windows 98 or 2000.

I think this is cool, but I want to know how other people around here think. Does this interest you?

neat. sounds like it'd work great as repurpose for some old PCs, although i'd rather use a Linux distro like Puppy for something like that.

Don't know what made them come to that decision... maybe it's because these two OSes are now widely used for gaming purposes or something like that? Odd really, but I wish them luck anyhow.

And upon looking up RetroArch itself, it's the first time I've known of an emulator able to support all different gaming platforms. Quite neat I should say.

This isn't actually being done by the team, but (I think) it's actually being done by some volunteer though

I never tried it myself, but I've heard good things about it though.
