They were a colossal force in emulation and will be missed. Near / Byuu Suicide refers to the event on June 28th, 2021, where it was said that the BSNES emulator creator, known as Byuu or Near online, took his own life after blaming Kiwi Farms users for cyberbullying him.
Seems like their death was related to relentless targeted harassment and mental health issues which is sad and unfortunate. Their code was even used with/by Stephen Hawking in an effort to preserve his voice after passing. As I said previously, if you use emulators for Nintendo/Sega/etc, you're almost certainly running this person’s code. Hmmmmmm shares a report from PC Gamer: Near, also known by their username Byuu, the creator of several groundbreaking videogame emulators and a recent celebrated translation of JRPG Bahamut Lagoon, has died by suicide. They also helped and contributed to countless other (even competing) projects just to further the state of emulation. I have a particular fondness for tactical RPGs such as Shining Force and Warsong. That alone is wild and unheard of in the emulation scene, but they ended up developing the same ideas for just about every other console/handheld from the 8-16bit era with Higan and later Ares. Near: As a child, I fell in love with Japanese role-playing games, and I began importing Super Famicom games. They started off with a goal to completely reverse engineer the SNES down to the clock cycle and eventually succeeded, minus some negligible weirdness with the sound chip. Chances are if you use an emulator to play retro games, you're running some of their code.
#Near creator bsnes died code
"Near" is the author behind the popular (and super notably cycle accurate) Bsnes/Higan/Ares emulators and contributed code to just about every modern emulator covering the 8-16 bit era. I'm not sure where to post this, but I feel like it's pretty significant.
