Oohhh excitement!

However

I’m disturbed by two things:
- the button doesn’t click (twitch)
- late 2019 is close enough to be a thing. How did we even get to 2019. I’m pretty sure we should still be back in 16 or 17. Slow the heck down, Time!

The same people on 'top' now, would be again, if indeed we did start from scratch. I was only kidding.

Late 2019 would be the beginning of SIM year 54. So, my guess is that we're not getting much in the way of updates when Year 53 starts in May.

Wish list of new features in SIM 8.0:

- Pegasus Races, not in the context of the multi-million dollar races, but as in the fantasy creatures.
- More companion animals! Dogs, pigs, mini horses, crocodiles, humans?
- Introducing CAT SHOWS for the companion cats!
- A cool SIM theme song that plays whenever you log in, perhaps of the late 80s heavy metal variety so you know how much of a badass you are for playing with fake horses.
- You can use numbers and more punctuation in horse names, and horse name limits are now 40 characters! Have fun!
- The Steward launches a campaign for President of the United States
- Final Furlong compatibility: Use your own Final Furlong arcade game cabinet to take control of one of your horses for each set of results!
- And so much more!
