Arcadia Preview 2 (version 1.0.489.0) is finally here!

I’m really pleased with Arcadia’s progress.  Arcadia’s features currently include selecting repositories (where game files are kept), scanning for games (based on a user-editable vocabulary of platforms), and (most importantly) searching for and running ROMs in your favorite emulators of choice.

Thanks to FlotsamX for his usability feedback for Preview 1.
