We don’t know whether the new versions will be free or paid yet. The one real downside to SNES8x, VBA8, and VGBC8 changing hands is that they will be considered new apps when they return to the Stores. We can also hope for the once-promised MOGA Pro Controller support to finally materialize. The new developer will release updates for each emulator over time, likely improving their performance and UI. Once that happens, the three emulators will return to both the Windows Phone and Windows 8 Stores. The changing of the guard should take a few weeks at most. The Windows Phone 8 apps have already dropped off their Store, and the Windows 8/RT versions will soon follow. The downside is that the apps must be delisted from the mobile Windows Stores in order for the transfer of ownership to take place. Luckily, another programmer has stepped forward to take over development duties on M.k’s former emulators. To keep SNES8x, VBA8, and VGBC8 alive though, a new developer would need to take them over.
He knows people love his emulators and want to see them improve.
Even though M.k has retired from the emulator development scene, he holds no ill will towards Windows platforms.
