News from Xdelusion:
I am not sure that my Star Wars project for the Nintendo DS will be finished in time for Christmas. I have a lot of work done, but recently found that the DS port of PrBOOM is not friendly to translucent walls, 3D floors, which my maps were full of. As it happens when you get close to a translucent window, the game slows to a crawl. If you so much as have a 3D floor within your line of sight the game also slows to a crawl, thus I am going to have to alter a number of things in many of my maps and perhaps reduce there size. Needless to say I wanted to release something for the holidays which is when Batman DOOM came to mind.
All you need to know about this classic Total Conversion can be found on the links below. This is not my own project, my only contribution is merging the TC into FreeDOOM which means you DO NOT need to own a copy of DOOM or DOOM II to play this. Merely copy the files onto the root of your Memory Card, launce Batman DOOM.NDS and you should be up and running.
I've not played through this on the DS, so if you experience any problems feel free to contact me on my site listed at the bottom of this text. If you report errors, BE SURE to be as specific as possible. I'll need to know what level you were on, what weapon you were using, and what was going on at the time of the crash or what ever.

While Nintendo having trouble meeting demand for the Wii is hardly news, it looks like those supply problems now have the company reconsidering its advertising plans, with some ads in the U.K. apparently already pulled. According to Marketing Week, Nintendo says that's being done in order to "take a responsible stance this Christmas and not fuel demand." In their place, Nintendo will reportedly be running more ads for the DS, which it seemingly has no trouble cranking out (the Wii ads will then return in full force in early 2008). No word if the advertising drawback will also extend to North America, but it certainly seems like there's enough shortages to go around.

Ant512 has released a new version of his windowing system for the Nintendo DS, heres the release info:
It's been about a month since the last release, so it's about time for another. Woopsi 0.26 is now available on the SourceForge site:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...roup_id=207650
Here's a screenshot of the lastest demo:
(I know the version number in the screengrab is wrong.)
There are a huge number of changes, mainly aimed at improving the API for developers. Changes are:
- Fixes:
- Added clip-to-physical-screen code back in.
- Fixed inconsistency in screen _flags.borderless variable.
- Fixed warning in gadget.cpp (bug 1826584).
- Removed parent pointers from gadget constructors.
- Removed eventhandler.cpp and rolled the functionality into the header.
- Removed font bitmap check from TextWriter (feature 1830307).
- Renamed "addXXX()" gadget creation functions to "newXXX()" (feature 1830242).
- Added check for null parent pointer before adding gadgets to child vector (bug 1830241).
- Fixed flicker in top display when flipping screens.
- Fixed border size confusion in Window class.
- Fixed problem with height and width to y2 and x2 conversion in TextWriter.
- Fixed scroll limit problem in TextViewer.
- Fixed drawing problems in TextViewer.
- Removed _deleteQueueActive from Gadget class and rely on vector size instead (bug 1843784).
- Made destructors virtual where appropriate.
- Set gadgets to be invisible until added to a parent gadget to prevent them being drawn to arbitrary positions on the screen.
- Removed "removeOverlappedRects" from Woopsi class.
- Changed Gadget::eraseGadget() so that the parent is responsible for erasing children instead of passing call up to Woopsi instance.
- Fixed Woopsi constructor parameter order.
- New Features:
- Screen and window borders can be enabled/disabled with setBorderless().
- Gadgets now have a flags bitmask instead of individual bools to control properties (request 1826433).
- Added addGadget() and insertGadget() for more control over children.
- Added an ID number ("refcon") to the base gadget class (request 1828519).
- Added getClientRect() function to gadget/window/screen classes.
- Added GraphicsPort class to handle drawing within gadgets.
- Gadgets now cache their visible regions to improve drawing speed.
- Pong demo uses a GraphicsPort instead of a SuperBitmap.
- Added "removeGadget" function for deleting gadgets from vectors.
- Added gadget decoration concept to handle borders, etc.
- Removed all usage of Gadget::getType() to aid subclassing.
- BitmapButton draws its bitmap using GraphicsPort.
- Window uses parent screen's GraphicsPort to draw its XOR rectangles (fixes bug in which XOR rectangle overlaps other screens, but no longer relevant since screens automatically depth-sort when clicked).
- Window border gadgets use GraphicsPort for their output.
- Screen title gadget uses GraphicsPort for its output.
- Removed most drawing functions from Gadget class.
- Added hardware-accelerated horizontal line drawing.
- Improved speed of filled rect by using faster horizontal line routine.
- Renamed bool getters from "getXXX()" to "isXXX()".
- Added clip-to-parents into Gadget::cacheVisibleRects and Gadget::splitRects.
- Removed glyph font and added support routines to allow single font.
- Added font inheritance system.
- Added Gradient background class.
- Removed background image from demo and replaced with gradient.

Newly released, heres the details:
Ultimate Duck Hunting lets you visit the country's best hunting grounds, for duck hunting action that's always in season. Choose your dog (yellow, chocolate, or black Labrador retriever) and train him to respond to your commands, all controlled by player motions using the Wii Remote. Gear up with name-brand guns, camouflage, and decoys -- then it's off into the wilderness to set up decoys, use duck calls, and ultimately become a crack shot using the Wii Remote to aim and fire at tough-to-down mallard, hen, black, and teal ducks. Guide your dog to retrieve ducks through flooded timber, murky lakes, and snowy slopes in six unique environments in Alaska, Arkansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, South Dakota, and Virginia.

Emukidid has released a great new homebrew for Gamecube and Wii Owners 
sd-boot v0.1 (BETA)
A program which lets you run homebrew and legally created GC backups via SDgecko.
Usage:
Put .GCM files in a directory called GCGAMES on the root of your SD card.
Boot up the .dol file however you want.
Pop the SD card in slot B
Select a file and enjoy
Requirements:
- A Gamecube or a Wii
and one or more of the following
- PSO+BBA (for GC dudes)
- Action Replay + SD CARD
- SDML
- Modchip
Notes:
There's alot to be fixed in this program, but this is a simple start.
Hopefully after I get a larger SD card I will find fixes to problems reported about games.
How it works (not so technical):
Intercept a dvdread, turn it into a seek to sector 0 and read my data from sd card.
Source:
Source is messy.. but yes it's included.
There's bits and pieces borrowed from everywhere
and I try to give credits where needed.
Thanks to:
gc-linux sd code for simple methods on how to use the sd gecko
brakk3n for the backdrop
everyone at tehskeen for the emulators and their sources
libOGC devs for libOGC

Jayenkai has updated his Retro Collection for the DS, heres the full info:
Platdude's Retro Collection - 18
Updated : Now with EIGHTEEN retro games!
The Brief
A collection of retro styled games, kicked up a notch.
Gameplay>Graphics
The Notice
DLDI Patch the _dldi versions to keep your highscores. There are no other differences between the two versions.
I'm now having to include 3 versions of each. It seems that Supercards are fussy enough to want their own special edition of the game. How silly! And people complain about the Games'n'Music!! At least that used the standard format!
The Credits
The Games were coded by Jayenkai.
The Graphics were drawn by Jayenkai.
The Sound Effects were created by Jayenkai.
Some Music was also made by Jayenkai, but then he took it out because it got annoying.
The Email
Contact Jayenkai@Gmail.com if you have suggestions/bugs/additional game ideas. All game ideas are taken into consideration, but not all will be added!
The Websites
My DS Game list - Check in for updates.
Socoder.net - A Game Making forum. (It's like BlitzCoder 2!)
The Games
Centipede : Shoot the centipede. Don't let it escape.
Snake : Guide the Snake. Grab the numbered blocks.
Invaders : Shoot the aliens. Don't let them get to the bottom.
Light Cycles : Try to get your opponents to crash.
Asteroids : Destroy the asteroids before they destroy you.
Pacman : Run around and collect things.
Frogger : Leap your way across 2 busy roads.
Pong : Beat your opponent, "one" ball at a time.
Tetris : Build low!
Buzzard Bait : You might like to call this game Joust. I owned a TRS-80, so I call it Buzzard Bait 
QBert : Hop around and change all the bricks.
Spike Dodge : Dodge the spikes, pick up the balls.
Extract : Keep Blue away from Red, and grab the Greens.
Missile Command : Tap to fire. Stop the missiles.
DotPop : Tap the squares. The quicker you tap 'em, the more you score.
Lights Out : Tap to invert a + of lights. Try to turn them all off.
5 In a Line : Shuffle the rows and columns around to make a whole line of a single color.
Tune Tap : Repeat the tune.

Sleep mode (closing the DS lid)
Updated for devkitARM r21

News/release from JeremySR:
I've made a trivia game for the DS, which is supposed to work a lot like IRC Triviabots but with only one player. It gives you a hint by showing the answer with all the letters replaced by dots, and starts revealing more dots every time you get the question wrong.
The game comes with a questions file to put on the root of your card. It contains 10 000 questions from an IRC Triviabot.
The controls are explained when you start up the game, and installation is explained in the readme file.
