trying to understand Shima?

For those not aware Shima is the creator and person who is responsible for making the Sega Saturn emulator. I always loved Sega games growing up, no doubt. When I learned that there was a piece of software that was capable of emulating the Saturn on a home computer, it broke my mind. That would cut out so much of the leg work. The Sega Saturn itself is incredibly difficult to program and create on.

So I was fascinated by the software known only as SSF. It was a simple, it made the ability to do things straight forward and without all the burden and hurdles that other software typically did. So I started using his emulator, and my having and owning the Sega Saturn game system itself slowly became a thing of the past.

And why shouldn’t it? what is the point of having all this arbitrary hardware and plastic discs, all that clutter. It does, and will develop in size. Being able to put video games into a smaller space and have the accessibility is something that makes things more convenient, and affordable.

The demand and labor slave of this world, should not be down to making video games. Video games do not feed the world. We need people that can work in agricultural fields, like in gardens and with the earth. We need laborers of the kind that will help with the natural and demands of life.

Shima is a person who I see a lot of personal intelligence and exclusivity. He wants his notice of self to be absent, he doesn’t want to be the name in the crowd. He was able to single-handedly craft a piece of software that emulate the Sega Saturn console itself.

I guess I just find it odd, that a person, with so much intelligence and so much knowledge in the Sega hardware. And he is a absent person, in regards to his identity online.

I have tried several times previously to speak with him personally and he was not at all, interested in the exchange. My curiosity has gotten the better of me. WHO IS SHIMA?!
