The renowned Nintendo Wii U emulator, Cemu, has received an update. Version 1.13.0e is now available to the public, and can be downloaded from their official website. New features in this build of the emulator include letting users boot homebrew .elf files, along with improving how graphic and texture packs are handled by the emulator.

Heres an old magazine rescanned for us all today to read once more:
What better way to celebrate the hottest summer in over 40 years than to take you back to the heart of winter of 1993.
And we do this with issue 14 of Super Play magazine.
For the previews of this issue we've selected a couple of somewhat forgotten games of the Super Nintendo.
We start of with what is probably the best game of them all: Sky Blazer by Ukiyotei. Then we take a look at Cool Spot by Virgin Games, programmed by Dave Perry. The weird, yet wonderful Plok! by Software Creations, and finally we take a look at the bizarre fighting game: Clay Fighter by Visual Concepts.
Enjoy!

As Switch hacking shifts into high gear and changes focus from reversing/exploits/homebrew to gamecard backups lots of projects are now in heavy development. Just to mention a few; hacbuild with a bunch of separate XCI gamecard GUI tools depending on it (XCI Organizer, XCI Explorer, hactool GUI, XCI2TitleConverter, and more), along with modded Hekate implementations and optimized payload launchers for Android such as Rekado. Check for the latest Switch stuff in the download section using this search here at EurAsia, and don't forget the Switch technical forum. We also have Team Xecuter with their SX pro and SX OS product line on the commercial side of things with news posted in this forum topic also here at EurAsia. Please help out by posting updates in the forums if there are any, hard to keep track of it all.

More awesome Nes News:
Takahashi Meijin no Bouken Jima IV or more popularly known as Adventure Island IV is now COMPLETELY translated in English!
Zynk tackled this project because he has a related hack in the works. He can’t use the old translation as it does not accurately translated the game. At all. Unlike the previous translation made by Demiforce, this hack translates more accurately what the characters say, especially the game masters - as they tell you what the items do instead of coaxing them to play a game with them on and on. The animal verbal tics are in the JP version, like the penguin’s -pen to HONK! Rabbit’s say PYON in JP, but what noise rabbits make? And what does the fox say?? (or was it a coyote…)
The title screen was designed like the previous NES release had, with “Hudson’s Adventure” graphic text inserted. The “Island” was painstakingly chiseled and the “IV” is retained.
Included is an extra patch where the sprite palettes are changed, making the game more colorful. Fruits now have their own palette away from the player’s sprite palette, though it shares with the dinos’ palette, but at least you can see grapes in purple, red, blue or green. Some enemies have palettes reassigned as well. Minor graphics changes for some items, namely the “flask with red liquid in it” changed to the consistent full HP restoration item from I, II, III – Milk.
Anyways, the game is playable even if the game is not translated. But please try the extra patch! Because its more colorful and more effort was put into it!! Enjoy!!!

The old consoles are getting some attention tonight, heres some nes news:
Well since it’s the 30th anniversary of “Blaster Master”, here’s something real special for all the hardcore gamers and NEStalgic fans out there. Now this is the first ever P1 rom hack or attempt at programming, so she’s a lil rough, but still its cool to pay homage to one of the best games of the 80s. Always found it funny how the box said “authentic arcade edition”. So what if Blaster master played like an actual arcade game? The side-scrolling levels were reduced into one room with access to all the boss levels that must be played in sequence that makes the classic title play more Megaman than Metroidvania. To retain the spirit of SunSoft difficulty of the game with the elimination of continues, it must be played with 3 lives aka one quarter. All that action is now tuned up for a boss rush catering to speed run freaks. In addition there are a few suicide traps one of which is a nod to the original Japanese version meta fight! There are few other surprises and Easter eggs you’ll enjoy. So without further adieu… Behold, a new twist to one of the greatest games of a generation; Blaster Basterd, authentic arcade edition!

Heres some Snes News:
Eskayelle has issued his Double Z Mod of the SNES classic, NBA Jam – Tournament Edition . A project two summers in the making, the hack started innocently with the discovery of Mattrizzle’s Player Portrait Replacement Tutorial and various correspondence regarding NBA Jam Hacks on the RHDN forums. Armed with this information, the initial game plan was to add Michael Jordan to the ROM, and perhaps himself and a few friends.
Learning more and more about ROM hacking, eskayelle expanded the hack to hex, text, and portrait editing (version 1), then tiles and sprites (version 2), moving into ASM hacking in his latest iteration (version 3).
Since then, the Double Z Mod has become a quintessential “Roaring ‘90s” hack, with several secret characters from the era inserted, including:
- Hulk Hogan
- “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels
- David Hasselhoff
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
- O.J. Simpson
- Bo Jackson – with Tecmo Bowl-esque speed!
Correspondingly, the team order has been updated to follow the season and playoff standings for the 1992-93 NBA season, with Chicago updated for the 1996 72-10 Chicago Bulls roster and Detroit stacked with the Motor City Bad Boys. Additionally, the Rookies team has been replaced by the 1992 Team USA squad, the Dream Team, from players, to logo, to team name, to uniform palette!
Meanwhile some bugs present in the original game have been resolved:
- The Grand Champions attract mode screen will now display certain players who have beaten all 27 teams, depending on their wins tally.
- The injury stats will reset at tip-off of every game, ensuring that the same teams/same lineups will not experience a carry-over of injury tallies from game 1 to game 2.
With a readme that provides detailed steps regarding the process for updating the original ROM, and a fair amount of credit to some great hackers and utility developers, the game has gone from a personal hack just for fun to a proof in concept and potential tutorial document for other would-be NBA Jam TE hackers. Writes eskayelle, “Writing the readme in this manner helped me track progress and revert the ROM back to certain versions when a bug or a bad crash was encountered. It could be a good tool for anyone out there who’d like to hack the game… maybe it’ll encourage a group to consider an annual team/roster update, akin to what’s currently being done for Tecmo Bowl. I’d love to help some folks get something like that off the ground, or just share some of the other data I’ve been accumulating about the game. It’d be great to share that info with folks new to hacking or some veterans – perhaps they could help teach me a few things about sound pointers and BRR replacements.”
If you’re up for a good game of Jam or want to peruse the other features changed, please head over to http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4097/. Constructive criticism is more than welcome, and – if you’d like to provide some mentoring on hacking ASM, sounds, etc. – or if you’d like more information on the hack or the original ROM to assist in your own efforts, please feel free to PM eskayelle directly or sound off in the forums.

Heres a Gameboy Colour News Item:
This gem of the past allows 3 monsters parties out of a total 312 different monsters.Some of the final bosses monsters might as well be from Dragon Ball Z. Regardless, the breeding mechanics provide players with the option to use almost anyone in their party. Unfortunately, the story drags through levels 1-20 before breeding is unlocked. From that point it does not take much effort before random dungeon keys offer better monsters and XP then the story.
This hack began with the accidental discovery of the DWM2 ROM MAP, https://dragon-warrior-monsters-2-mo...m/wiki/ROM_Map
After a couple months one of the greatest childhood GBC RPGs has been remade into an adult RPG challenge. The story keys now have a great variety of tough monsters to compete with the random keys. The XP reward of some peculiar monsters have been boosted to keep random keys interesting. Collect rare XP keys until you can unlock the MetalKing training grounds!
Dragon Quest and Pokemon fans should give it a try! Please let JonahStrix know of any issues or suggestions for improvement.

- Increased resolution**
- Scrolling backgrounds**
- Updated sound effects and music**
- File resources for alternate sound and graphics**
- New title and ending screen**
- Minimap
- Animated environments
- Beam stacking
- Saving
- Full health on startup
Players must use a new version of the Mesen emulator that was released on August 5, 2018 (version 0.9.6 is available at: https://www.mesen.ca/#Downloads). Older versions of the Mesen emulator will not work properly.
The README contains details the work performed by each author below that helped make the HD pack possible: Kya, Sour, dACE, snarfblam, Infinity’s End, DemickXII, Psyklax, Maximum Potion, VariaZim, WIP, Exaelart, Riklaionel, elgwen, strugglepoo, Luminist, Jorge Fuentes, and Patricio Herrera.

Some more NES rom News:
Mr Fwibbles (Grandia: Parallel Trippers, Ganbare Goemon Gaiden etc) has completed a full English translation patch for Ganbare Goemon Gaiden 2 on the Famicom/NES.
Originally released in January 1992, GGG2 is another turn-based RPG, but this time around the battles use a Phantasy Star II-style perspective with more advanced animations and effects than the previous game. This side-story is about Goemon and Ebisumaru entering a “Thievery World Tournament” where the aim is to be the first team to gather 8 keys which unlock a door leading to a legendary treasure that will make the winners rich.
The project took around 5 months from start to finish, with no major roadblocks (thanks to having an idea of how to prepare for them in advance from working on the previous game).
Thanks to Cccmar, Lilith and TheRedPriest Q for help with testing and feedback.
Please note that this game doesn’t work properly in some popular emulators. For more information, be sure to check the provided Readme file.

Some more Nes Game News:
Today aishsha and Pennywise present a completed translation of Jajamaru Ninpou Chou for the NES. This project is a milestone in that the entire series on the NES is now in English and did you know that aishsha and Pennywise have been working together for 10 years now? Over the course of a decade they’ve managed to translate at least 20 RPG’s and other misc games. They probably have one of the most productive partnerships in the history of the translation community.
Please note that the translation of Jajamaru Ninpou Chou is only playable on certain emulators like FCEUX. This is because the ROM was expanded past the mapper limit. If anyone wishes to hack the translation to use a different mapper, we are happy to incorporate it into the translation. We can also provide source code for the expansion hacks to anyone interested.
As a bit of a bonus, aishsha did some title screen hacks for the two Ninja Kun games bringing them into the Jajamaru fold.
Lastly, not related to Jajamaru, but Pennywise also happened to finish a translation of Tenjin Kaisen for the GB at the same time as these games and decided to release it with everything else.

Heres a release for Nes Fans:
P1 is at it again, this time (2nd hack) P1 chose a game with code has gone untouched since it’s release in ‘89/’90. After blowing some dust out the rom it became clear this may very well be the worlds first and only “Mendel Palace” hak! This NES era action puzzler was a personal favorite long before anyone uttered the word, “Pikachu”. The creators behind the Japanese version of this game “Quinty”, would go on to develop the largest multimedia IP juggernaut the world has ever known… Pokemon.
The art style of both games is almost identical and many of the characters could be interchangeable. The game definitely needed a fresh coat of paint. An Aesthetic that fit. A Vaporwave look for the game only made sense with the checkerboard tiles. Profound pastel and 90’s palette swaps on every single tile! P1 did this for the entire game! P1 added the standard P1 graphical mods and Easter eggs,but the frantic arcade puzzle gameplay remains the same!
Most have never played Mendel Palace, or its time for a revist, so its highly recommend checking out “Vapor” in any case. To access this extra part of the game simply hold start and select on the controller while pressing the reset button on the NES system. If Mendel Palace Vapor is enjoyable please check out the other P1 hak Blaster Basterd right here on romhacking!
PS The only thing missing P1 REALLY wanted to do was add a VaporWave CD soundtrack to the game. Maybe some day someone could help P1 with a Turbo-CD port lol!

astronautlevel2 has released a new version of the Theme manager for the Nintendo 2DS/3DS:
Beta release of v2.1.0.
The main purpose of this beta is to test the compatibility of the new QR code scanner as much as possible before the v2.1.0 release. Full change-log below:
Bugfixes:
Changed Title ID to not conflict with a game - this means you'll have to uninstall the old version of Anemone3DS after updating to v2.1.0.
Fixed various bugs caused by an outdated libarchive version.
Fixed various bugs related to previous caused by lodepng by switching to libpng.
Fixed race condition in icon scrolling.
Fixed screen tearing in the QR reader.
Fixed bug caused by playing music even when there was no theme preview.
Fixed it being possible to try to preview themes/splashes even when there were no themes or splashes.
Fixed bug caused by attempting to play audio when dspfirm wasn't dumped.
Fixed bug caused by attempting to install BGM for shuffle themes even when there was none.
Fixed various bugs caused by not properly zeroing out files when creating them.
Properly update the installed splash.
Improvements:
Huge improvements to the QR code reader's speed. This is likely the fastest/smoothest it can possibly be (it's now on-par with QRaken and FBI) thanks to a combination of improved multithreading and switching graphics libraries.
Speaking of switching graphics libraries, we've completely switched from pp2d to citro2d! This allowed us to get the QR code reader substantially faster, as well as guarantees full support for the library in the future. Huge thanks to LiquidFenrir for doing most of the work of the change.
Switch to using spritesheets to load the sprites rather than just loading them all into the romfs.
Don't wait for audio to finish loading before displaying the preview image, making previews display in the snappy fashion they used to before the audio player.
Improved banner quality. Thanks to @TurdPooCharger for this!
