Updating from v1.0.0

• Run the OTA Updater app using WiFi and everything will work just fine! There will be some excess files that do not get deleted but they will not have any adverse effect on anything except disk space.
• Manual updates are very easy! Follow the instructions here.
• Please note that if using OTA, you will want to back up any NDS saves or configs from your Emu/NDS folder to avoid potential data loss, as their location has changed in this upcoming version to the Saves folder.

Emu/NDS/backup
Emu/NDS/config
Emu/NDS/savestates

Major Changes

• The UI now runs faster and smoother, with things like changes to volume and brightness reflecting immediately instead of after a delay.
• Replaced keymon with our own watchdog scripts for greater customization of button, lid, and battery behavior.
• Added the Game Nursery, an over-the-air downloader for free homebrew games for a variety of platforms.
• Added display settings for brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, and independent red/green/blue balance (thanks @tenlevels!).
• Improved boxart optimization algorithms that better balance size on disk and render speed.
• Implemented variable time settings to safely auto-shutdown your device after closing the lid.
• Added options to disable wifi while in game or while in pseudo-sleep, in order to save battery.
• Added options to enable or disable ADB, SSH, Samba, and Telnet access to your device.
• Added ability to exit boxart scraper early by pressing the MENU button; also various under-the-hood scraper improvements.
