Overview

The official website of the Cygne emulator was last updated on March 26, 2002, so this was definitely a very ancient emulator by emulation standards. The last version of Cygne, 2.1a, was updated on March 12, 2002. Cygne was originally developed in beta form for the DOS but has since then been improved and several issues fixed such as better timing and the SRAM. In the early 2000's, it was reputed to be one the best WSC/WSC Color emulators - but Cygne isn't recommended today in the advent of more advanced and better alternatives.

The NEC CPU emulator code was taken from the MAME project.
