# State of Retro Gaming in Emacs
Sunday, Nov 29 2020,  1:16 PM -  1:26 PM  
Vasilij "wasamasa" Schneidermann

Many jokes have been made about the true nature of Emacs, such as it
being a fully-fledged operating system.  This talk will demonstrate
its suitability for playing retro games, then explore the inner
workings of a [CHIP-8](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIP-8) emulator capable of smooth video game emulation.
