That's great news!
So far, we have
WinUAE (2.6.0) and
certain versions of MAME that can do software based black frame insertion to do 60Hz strobing on a 120Hz monitor (this can also simulate 60Hz LightBoost out of 120Hz LightBoost too).

Yes, that was my goal when I experienced for first time the lightboost 2d "hack": apply it to emus as old school sprites suffer a lot from LCD ghosting and thats ugly and eyes-unfriendly. So Arcade, Amiga and MSX, my childhood systems, are now properly supporting it. Nice! I hope more systems add the lightboost option (last time I tried with SNES ports with no luck).
