Happy birthday melonDS! Nov 3rd 2025, by Arisotura |
|
Those of you who know your melonDS lore know that today is a special day. melonDS is 9 years old! ...hey, I don't control this. 9 is brown. I don't make the rules. Anyway, yeah. 9 years of melonDS. That's quite the achievement. Sometimes I don't realize it has been so long... - As far as I'm concerned, there hasn't been a lot -- 2025 has had a real shitty start for me. A lot of stuff came forward that has been really rough. On the flip side, it has also been the occasion to get a fresh start. I was told about IFS therapy in March, and I was able to get started. It has been intense, but so far it has been way more effective than previous attempts at therapy. I'm hopeful for 2026 to be a better year. I'm also going to hopefully get started with a new job which is looking pretty cool, so that's nice too. - As far as melonDS is concerned, I have several ideas. First of all, we'll release melonDS 1.1 pretty soon, with a nice bundle of fixes and improvements. I also have ideas for further releases. RTCom support, netplay, ... there's a lot of potential. I guess we can also look at Retroachivements, since that seems to be popular request. There's also the long-standing issues we should finally address, like the lack of upscaling in dual-screen 3D scenes. Basically, no shortage of things to do. It's just matter of actually doing them. You know how that goes... I also plan some upgrades to the site. I have some basic ideas for a homepage redesign, for updating the information that is presented, and presenting it in a nicer way... Some organization for the blog would be nice too, like splitting the posts into categories: release posts, technical shito, ... I also have something else in mind: adding in a wiki, to host all information related to melonDS. The FAQ, help pages specific to certain topics, maybe compatibility info, ... And maybe, just maybe, a screenshot section that isn't just a few outdated pics. Maybe that could go on the wiki too... - Regardless, happy birthday melonDS! And thank you all, you have helped make this possible! |

Late to the party but happy birthday melonDS <3 To the team behind this awesome emulator, thank you for the continuous effort and development on this project! And Arisotura, there is always stuff to do, that's just life, but you matter more than the code. Take things slow and enjoy what you are doing especially with others. That being said, I hope the rest of 2025 and the start of 2026 treats everyone well! Be happy! |
