We are very excited to have our first guest this week, as we welcome the legendary Vimm of Vimm's Lair! We talk shop about the impact that the Delta Emulator on the App Store has made on the site, as well as go over the history of the timeless website many of us have come to know as THE rom site. We also dive into Vimm's favorite game console and reminisce on his most cherished video game memory. Come for the SNES RPG nostalgia, and stay for the intriguing history of one of the oldest rom sites on the planet!
