Hi! My name's Megumi. Lots of people shorten it, so feel free to. I'm a girl who's had interest in emulation for almost half of my life now, and by now I have a pretty good idea of how it all works. I recently started on one of Stroustrup's programming books for beginners, and hope to tackle about one chapter every few days. Initially I took interest in mGBA because of its accuracy-based, instead of 'hack'-based, approach to emulation, but some of the less common features seem very interesting to me too.
In my spare time, I watch a lot of anime, play the MMO Final Fantasy XIV, and do whatever else I feel up to at the moment. I once ported CyanogenMod to a never-officially-supported variant of the Galaxy S2, for somebody I knew. Most of the work with that was just changing device trees and adding overlay values for the changes that the variant needed.
I also have a lot of interest in game speedrunning theory. Though I haven't attempted my own speedrun before, I have done a lot of neat sequence breaks / mechanic abuses in a variety of games, mostly across the SNES/N64/GameCube libraries. :) I used to be somewhat notorious in school for being "unfairly good" at games like Smash Bros, Custom Robo, etc.
