What stuff in particular? Hardware hacking? Homebrew rom programming? Emulator programming?

Hardware hacking: I dunno. How to solder maybe.
Homebrew roms: Z80 assembler from out-of-print books, and every byte in the docs section.
Emulator programming: C and Win32 assembler.

Well, knowing C and C++ will probably help. Tell someone you're a whizz with Z80 assembler and they'll frown and look at you like you're strange. Tell them you're an expert on late-80s Sega games hardware and they'll probably laugh...
