# State of Retro Gaming in Emacs
Sunday, Nov 29 2020,  1:16 PM -  1:26 PM EST / 10:16 AM - 10:26 AM PST /  6:16 PM -  6:26 PM UTC /  7:16 PM -  7:26 PM CET

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.
