This was an awesome and extremely informative read! I've been mulling over the idea of getting into homebrew and this was the kind of information I've been looking for! Thank you so much for this post. I've enjoyed Keep SNES Alive! and your GB games. A physical copy of Yo-Yo Shuriken is definitely on my wishlist.
