For GC and Wii.
In an alternate timeline…
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes on the Gamecube and in Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Wii was an anomaly to the Metroid series, giving Samus limited shots of her ‘Light’ and ‘Dark’ beam weapons. Since its release in 2004, many Metroid fans have wondered: What would Metroid Prime 2 have been like without beam ammo?
The fan mod Metroid Prime 2: Unlimited Beams Authorized answers just that. Compatible for all GCN regions and for the USA Trilogy, U.B.A. gives Samus her energy back, and removes beam ammo from the game entirely. Players will no longer expect to see beam ammo pickups drop from crates, enemies, or environmental debris. Samus’ HUD graphics in her visor for her beams are gone as well: players will be able to choose using the patcher utility whether to keep or remove her beam ammo bars, which can be used instead to indicate how many beam ammo expansions Samus has picked up on her journey. The number display which acts as the beam ammo counter, however, is removed by default.
“U.B.A.” gives gives a renewed sense of enjoyment to Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. Take in the lush environments of Torvus Bog, and focus on your health - not your ammo - while venturing into the poisonous Dark Aether world, which will continually eat your suit, sapping Samus’ energy. The initial testers for the mod experienced a “relaxed feel and balanced difficulty” to the game.
So what other impacts does Unlimited Beams Authorized have to the game? The creators behind this mod were careful to preserve as much of the original game as possible. You will be relieved to hear that Missiles, Energy, and Powerbombs all drop as normal, and from the correct enemies, as well. Most* of the bosses still drop energy and missiles after you’ve defeated them, while a couple fights may feel even more intense than before.
Will this affect my logbook scans, or my item completion rate if ammo is removed? No, common item pickups aren’t counted as scans for the logbook in Metroid Prime 2, and Beam Ammo Expansions are still collectable pickups, and still count toward 100% item completion.
Save file compatibility will still be the same. You will be able to use your existing Metroid Prime 2: Echoes save file with Unlimited Beams Authorized, and freely switch between the original game and U.B.A. without fear of corrupting or changing anything important in your saves.
In the 1.0 release, no script changes were made. However, a language patch is planned with a future update. It will change some of the in-game text (for example, upon picking up a Beam Ammo Expansion) to talk about the items in the past-tense, for example, as if they were for someone else. The language patch will be completely optional and will be able to be selected using the patcher utility.
Let’s talk about some more changes and features.
U.B.A. features additional alternate playstyles. There are two secret “hardmodes” that can be enabled using the patcher utility. When asked whether to “keep” or “remove” the ammo bars, simply press either the “h” or “s” key to activate them. Pressing “h” activates Hardmode1, while press “s” activates Hardmode2. They both make the game much harder: Since no ammo is dropped from the game, then Samus will have to search elsewhere for her ammo. But Samus will still use her beam ammo… truly a hard mode! Hardmode2 takes this a step further and removes Samus’ beam ammo counter and beam ammo bars, keeping Samus in the dark on how much beam ammo she has left (beam ammo can still be refilled at ammo stations and her gunship.
In multiplayer mode, all players are now given unlimited beam ammo. Simply pickup one of Samus’ beam weapon upgrades and you’re good to go.
The authors of the mod hope you will enjoy Unlimited Beams Authorized, and they hope to see more Metroid Prime mods in the future.
Notes.
- While it was mentioned that most bosses will drop energy and missiles afterward, 1.0 users should be warned that Alpha Blogg, Grapple Guardian, Dark Samus 2, and the entire final fight will not drop any items at all. A fix is planned for some of these bosses in a future update.
- As well, most swarm enemies in the game will not drop either energy or missiles, either. This includes Hydlings, Dark Chykka’s chyklings, and Ing Larva Swarms, to name a few. It is best if these swarm enemies are seen as destructible hazards, instead.

Nintendo spent big on TV ads last month, especially to promote Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and it looks like no other gaming brand came close to touching a similar total spend.
According to data shared by VentureBeat and iSpot.tv, Nintendo spent an estimated $14.6 million on TV ads last month, $3 million more than it spent in February.
That money went toward 20 different ads that aired over 3,000 times, with seeing the largest budget for a single ad.
Nintendo was the only gaming company to spend over $1 million on TV ads, with the second-biggest spend coming from Bethesda at an estimated $866,000 split between two ad spots. $499,000 of that went toward the Doom: Eternal official launch trailer.
Xbox spent the third most, with $641,000 across four ads and its biggest spend -- $269,000 -- on a Doom: Eternal ad in partnership with Bethesda.

After a period of heavy effort, testing and proofreading, a new translation of Final Fantasy VI makes its way into Spanish thanks to the sacrifice of Rod Merida, the project’s hacker and translator, and the invaluable help in script reviewing of Vicks Dg and Bernar Carrasc, all of them members of Crackowia group.
The project was originally started several years ago, back in 2004, after the aforementioned members had just got and completed a full but faulty translation of FF3us, made by Latin-Americans, full of typos, wrong pointer addressings, that made some messages appeared partially repeated, spare grammar and orthograph mistakes, and no accented letters, opening question and exclamation marks at all, besides the constant substitution of second person plural pronoun “Vosotros” and its conjugations by polite treatment Ustedes ─something usual in Latin American Spanish in colloquial speech─. All this made this work faulty and unserious in the eyes of a minimally critical player. There was a strong agreement a retranslation to Spanish was necessary of this historical RPG whose story and game mechanics had amazed the group; the game worthed it, but there was, back in that moment, a surprisingly annoying lack of it.
So after some initial doubts and tribulations, ROMhacking techniques gathering and trials with some hex editing applications, like Hexposure 0.44, Thingy and TBL searchers, the project translator, Rod Mérida, decided to start the work. Once the first major obstacles, such as finding the character table and being able to decode the DTE compressed character pairs, or getting to see and edit the font tiles inside the ROM in order to add accented letters, had been solved, the project was advancing. However, it is a game with extensive dialog script, and a myriad of enemy and item names, abilities, combat messages, and descriptions in menu of all kinds of matters. Thus the project lengthened over time, extended and complicated, because in addition to translating it, it was necessary to test it and manually modify the pointer table every time the translated messages didn’t fit in the original string. The discovery of FF3edit, an application that readdressed dialog pointers automatically, accelerated this process, but the existance of other personal projects, like University and studying, delayed it. In the end, laziness overcame.
About four months ago, in late December 2019, the translator decided to get back the partially hacked ROM from silence and put the turbo in it. By January a first fully playable version was finished, with all its dialogs and enemy or item names translated. After that the script has been fully replayed and reviewed by Vicks Dg, followed by hundreds of text corrections and fixes. A second proof-reading, with minor fixes added, has been developped by Bernar Carrasc.
A final version of this translation was released in April 9th, 2020, in romhacking website, and can be downloaded and enjoyed by everyone interested.

After various trials and tribulations, the very first Knight Gundam game makes it way into English thanks to the efforts of aishsha and Pennywise.
The project was originally started by KingMike years back and was taken over by aishsha who did the lions share of hacking and translating the game and as usual Pennywise came along and polished everything up to what you see now. Special thanks to TheMajinZenki who reviewed all the names in the game and then some.
A special note about the translation. It is currently only playable in FCEUX and possibly a few others due to a ROM expansion that exceeds the mapper’s limit. If you’d like to see other emulators support the translation, send the devs a message asking for them to support the translation.

Double Dragon III Classic Enemies is a hack of the NES game Double Dragon III, The Sacred Stones. This hack replaces many of the enemies of the original game with the classic enemies seen in Double Dragon 1 and 2.
This hack aims to bring personality to a game with solid mechanics, but bland enemy design.
In addition, this hack aims to lower the difficulty of the game until the player recruits extra characters in level 2, making progress much less stressful and more enjoyable.

Good news everybody! Kevin Mellott's HyperFlash32 flash cart is finally done and a first batch of 25 is en route for circa late May. A larger second batch will follow soon after.
Both batches have long been sold out, so even if you preorder one right now, you will have to wait some more months for your cart. There's still a chance to get your hands on one as soon as the first batch lands, though. Kevin is now holding an eInk label art contest and the best label art will be awarded with a HyperFlash32 cart. Check out the thread for more info and get ready to push some pixels. Still 3 weeks to go, go, go!

Nintendo insists that more stock is on the way as Switch console supply dries up globally.
The firm issued a note to Japanese customers yesterday stating that only those who had reserved a Switch console (including the new Animal Crossing special edition) would be receiving their units this week. Standard shipping to retailers was not going ahead and there was no information on whether there would be any the following week, either. The firm's official position is that stock shipments have been 'delayed'.
It's a situation that's reflected globally, with the standard Switch console almost entirely sold out across Europe and the US. Sales of Switch games and consoles have plummeted over the past two weeks according to latest figures from GfK and GSD. There is still some availablity of Nintendo Switch Lite.
It's a combination of factors that has led to the scarcity of stock. With the lockdown keeping families in doors, there's been a spike in demand for the hardware. Across many markets, Switch sales jumped by more than 150% during March. However, with distribution and manufacturing severely impeded due to the coronavirus crisis, Nintendo has struggled to resupply. Switch components are largely made in China, which had shut down manufacturing due to the pandemic, although factories are gradually reopening.
A US representative told GamesIndustry.biz: "Nintendo Switch hardware is selling out at various retail locations in the U.S., but more systems are on the way. We apologize for any inconvenience."

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been delisted from Chinese online shopping sites Taobao and Pinduoduo after a crackdown from government regulators.
Though the game has not yet been approved for sale in China, it has nonetheless been picked up through retailers selling imported cartridges, as well as users who own imported Nintendo Switch systems purchasing the game digitally through other countries' eshops.
Reuters reports that the game was delisted from Taobao and Pinduoduo late this week, while Niko Partners analysts Daniel Ahmad points out on Twitter that this was due to an enforcement order from the Chinese regulator.
Ahmad adds that such enforcement orders on games typically occur due to a game becoming too popular, or a game containing content deemed to be inappropriate by the regulator.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons sold more than 2.6 million physical copies in its first 10 days on sale, according to Famitsu sales data.
The sales total covers February 24 through March 29, but Animal Crossing: New Horizons didn't launch until March 20.
Famitsu previously reported that New Horizons had sold 1.88 million copies in Japan in its first three days on sale.
The next best-selling game in the monthly chart was another Switch title, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX, which sold more than 218,000 copies for the month. Nioh 2 on the PlayStation 4 was the only other game with a six-digit sales figure, topping 129,000 copies sold.

Nintendulator 0.985 beta (2020/04/05) is released. Nintendulator is an open source Win32 NES emulator written in C (plus some assembly optimization). The original goal was to emulate the NES down to its hardware quirks; though it's fallen behind over the years, recent builds have caught up once again and can emulate certain behaviors most other emulators neglect to handle. However, this emulation precision comes at a price - a 1500MHz (estimated) or faster CPU is required to emulate at full speed.
Supported file formats include .NES, UNIF, FDS (fwNES format), and NSF. Mappers are handled using external DLLs, complete with extra sound channels for most games which provide them. Other notable features include writing to FDS images (by storing the differences in the SRAM folder), Game Genie support (limited to 3 codes), customizeable controllers (including 4 player), input movie recording and playback (with re-recording), AVI capturing, and a debugger.

RocketRobz released TWiLight Menu++ 13.0.0 for the 3DS which comes with more AP fixes among other things.
Check here on how to update TWiLight Menu++.
Includes nds-bootstrap v0.32.0, and a new GBARunner2 build (for DS, DSi, and 3DS)!
What's new?
- TWL (DSi-Enhanced) cartridges now boot (but only in DS mode for now)!
- If there's an existing soft-reset parameter file on the SD card, when launching TWiLight Menu++, the last-launched DS(i) game will boot with the existing parameters.
- Early (but not all) SDK2 games, as well as a few SDK3-4 games, will now no longer show the heap shrink option!
- The DS Classic Menu now indicates you can press B to go back to the ROM menu.
- (RetroGameFan) Fixed AP-fix files for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time.
- Added AP-fix for:
-Megaman Battle Network: Operate Star Force (ENG)
-Nora to Toki no Koubou: Kiri no Mori no Majo (CHN)
-Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary (ENG)
- (gamemasterplc) Added widescreen support for B-17 - Fortress in the Sky (USA).
- Added Chinese and Korean per-game language options.
- User settings are now read from TWLCFG, if found!
- Added other languages for the DSi splash screen, as well as the iQue DSi splash screen for the Chinese language!
DS mode flashcard users will still show the regular DSi splash.
- 3DS/2DS console is now found by checking the NAND, instead of the Nintendo 3DS folder on the SD card.
- (@R-YaTian) DS Classic Menu: CHN and KOR Pictochat and DLP are now copied from NAND.
- Fixed CHN and KOR Pictochat and DLP showing error.
- If you are using DSiWarehax (e.g. sudokuhax, Memory Pit, etc.) to run TWiLight Menu++ and nds-bootstrap, you can now set what DSiWare exploit you're using, alongside the region, in TWLMenu++ Settings.
This allows nds-bootstrap to soft-reset, or exit out, when using DSiWarehax.
- Added nds-bootstrap options Expand ROM space in RAM and Cache block size, to Games/Apps settings page.
NOTE: For Expand ROM space in RAM, the +512KB option will break Download Play functionality, even for games that don't use cloneboot.
- Added option in the GBARunner2 settings page, to simulate GBA colors.
- When running on CycloDSi iEvolution in DSi mode, the console will now reboot, if FAT init gets stuck in a loop.
Bug fixes
- If the DS(i) ROM banner text isn't found for the user-set language, it'll now fall back to the previous one from the user's, and further, if that isn't found.
Fixes banner display for Minna no Mahjong DS, for non-Japanese users.
- DS Classic Menu: Fixed Pictochat and DLP not being copied from the NAND at all.
- DS Classic Menu: Fixed DLPlay copy from NAND, overwriting Pictochat on SD.
- Attempted to fix IR breaking after accessing DS Classic Menu. (Not tested!)
Known bug
- The Gen 5 Pokemon games as cartridges crash when selecting either Yes or No for C-Gear communications. (Reported by JosephNeale)
Regression
- The Nintendo DS Browser now doesn't work from cartridge.

Dolwin v0.11 is released. Dolwin is a Nintendo GameCube Emulator for Windows. Dolwin is an emulator of Nintendo Gamecube console. This platform is based on PowerPC-derivative processor, produced by IBM Corp. and codenamed Gekko. Dolwin mainly purposed to emulate homebrewn applications.
Dolwin v0.11 Changelog:
Fuh, it’s hard to tell in a nutshell, but I’ll try.
Firstly, the development has been restarted since 2004. Can you imagine what fossils you had to work with. Major changes:
Multithreading: the emulator engine is prepared for multitask execution of all components. Now the interface, processor emulation, DSP and non-invasive debugger can simultaneously work on the background. All this can be stopped and run separately at any time.
Basic emulation of GameCube DSP. It’s enough that the games do not hang at the very beginning. In future releases, support will be improved for sound output.
The new JDI infrastructure has been added to the debugger (more details can be found here: https://github.com/ogamespec/dolwin/...ugInterface.md)
The interface is translated to Unicode, the settings are now stored in Json. The settings themselves are greatly simplified.
The source code is cleaned and divided into sub-projects
Plans for the next releases can be viewed on GitHub: https://github.com/ogamespec/dolwin/milestones

GB Enhanced+ v1.4 is released. GBE+ is an experimental GBA emulator and the planned successor to the original GBE project. Game Boy Enhanced (GBE for short) aims to be a fully functional Game Boy emulator. The goal is to create a highly portable emulator using C++ and SDL, document the Game Boy's functions through clear code, and add as many enhancements (scaling filters, cheats, custom sprites) as reasonably possible.
GB Enhanced+ changelog:
Improved NDS support. Still very WIP, but now a number of commercial games boot and run.
Added support for the Multi Plust On System
Added support for the Turbo File GB and Turbo File Advance
Added Game Boy Wars 3 data for internal GB Mobile Adapter server
Added the ability for GBE+ to connect to a recreated GB Mobile Adapter server (such as the one from the Reverse Engineered Open Network)
Added support for the AGB-006 and emulated CDZ models Zoids.
Added a full database of all 70 Cosmic Characters for Full Changer used in Zok Zok Heroes.
Added support for a few NDS Slot-2 devices (Rumble Pak, Ubisoft Thrustmaster Pedometer, HCV-1000).
