Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:
Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.
I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”
I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

Not one that I’m aware of with that assortment of controls, unfortunately.

But you’re so far ahead of everyone just getting started now. It’s just another variation of pay to win, and you chose to skip ahead.
There wasn’t a year specified, so why stop there?
10 Jun, huh? Guess we missed it.
The draw for me is actually the physical controls you don’t find on other devices.
Still on the fence due to other compromises they made in the hardware. I’d also really love if I could install other emulators such as something for Amiga & C64.
