I am a massive RTS fan and the Nintendo DS is made for RTS action, heres a great new release from JimmyL:
First public release. v0.1
This is more a proof of concept than a game, but it's still quite playable.
Everything works perfectly on hardware, but it also runs fine on Dualis with the exception of transparency, but that shouldn't affect the game at all, and the touchscreen being off by about 16 pixels vertically.
Heres a screenshot:
Download this excellent looking new RTS game here --> http://nintendo-ds.dcemu.co.uk/dsrts.shtml

What a year for the DCEmu Homebrew & Gaming Network, the network expanded from the original Dreamcast site to take in all of my sites and then with the server problems we upgraded to a Vbulletin Forum and now the forums actually serve as news forums for all the network sites.
The community is expanding at a massive rate with a total of 20 sites under the network covering all these consoles
PSP
Nintendo DS
GBA Micro/GBA SP
Nintendo Gamecube
Xbox
Xbox 360
Dreamcast
PS2
PS3
GP2X
GP32
Nintendo Revolution
Tapwave Zodiac
Gizmondo
Nokia N-Gage
iPod
Retro Consoles & Gadgets
We also have some of the Homebrew scenes best developers hosted here at DCEmu:
Chui
PSmonkey/Nexis2600
GPF
We are a network of sites who post news about Homebrew, Development, Hacking, Emulation and the Commercial side of each console, we never ever take the easy road and post warez or host iso loaders etc, the quickest way to destroy a scene is to do that so we keep well away from it.
This year has seen the emergence of the PSP scene and our PSP News site has enjoyed so many releases to a new console that it has been staggering, of late the GP2X has took over the billing of the scene with the most releases but that could change at anytime.
We have over 18,000 members now and looking at the stats we had over 4100 online at one time and thats pretty damn decent, some of the scenes we cover dont see much activity but we follow them regardless.
In 2006 we hope and well with a nutter like me running the place, this network will get bigger and better and hopefully one day the legal Homebrew scene will be looked on more favourable than it has been in the past, we can but hope 
Of course even though i do a heck of a lot of work id like to thank Martin64 for hosting me and my server killing sites (yeah we actually killed a server), also Soully and DS69 and indeed all the staff and mods at DCEmu and the members and helpers who make my job easier, a big thanks to you all, it has personally been a year with some great ups (this network) and some severe downs ( losing family members) but its great to come home and emerse myself in the Homebrew scene, a scene ive followed for 9 years or more (im forgetful), ive had some crackin arguments (yeah those are fun) and made some great friends but its all worth it overall, just remember though without the developers and hackers and i suppose in a smaller way newsposters and webmasters/mods etc you wouldnt have your scene, so its always worth trying to say things in a correct way even if you dislike their work or release.
Ok ive bored everyone to sleep and im drunk anyway but HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

News from the iDeaS Site:
Ok, after completing the restyling of the site - namely, I finally got rid of that bloody header - we decided to share with you the very first Linux version of this emulator. Beware though: it is still a preview, so we cannot guarantee it will work at all, but at least we will get some actual feedback...
Other than that, you have noticed that the newest iDeaS is based on a crude plugin system: to allow anyone skilled enough to code a different plugin, a SDK is now included in the freshly opened Download section. If you need advice or informations, feel free to bug Lino
Enjoy!

The Wall Street Journal posted a good flash up showing a good comparison between the new home video game consoles. Covering the Xbox 360, the Playstation 3 and the Revolution, this article goes in depth to speak about market shares and base unit installations.
With the launch of Microsoft's Xbox 360 in 2005, Sony the current market leader, and Nintendo will both follow in 2006 there is sure to be fierce competition. All consoles promise amazing graphics, high fidelity audio, wireless networking support and a focus on multiplayer games. This year alone gamers are expected to spend approximately $12.8 billion on hardware and $19.3 billion on software according to Wedbush Morgan Securities.
Current Installed Base
Microsoft Xbox - 24 million
Nintendo Gamecube - 21.5 million
Sony PS2 - 83.2 million
Microsoft Xbox 360
Pointing out that Microsoft's initial push to release their product was a important jump on the competition. Microsoft Expects to sell around three million units within the first 90 days of launch. However they have less games then were hoped for. In addition where was Halo for Xbox360? This game would obviously put more Xbox 360's in the hands of gamers, looking at original Halo sales. Had it not been for lack of consoles for sale however the disparity in price was no help either. Seeing Xbox 360's being sold from the $299 base price up to $1500 or more, including rather sleezy business tactics by Best Buy.
Sony Playstation 3
Master of the Market, Sony has consumed the video game market for the last two generations of video game consoles. Selling 150+ million Playstation consoles and holding relationships with many top video game console developers. Sonys new system boasts a DVD Drive that supports Blu-ray format, providing 54GB (11 1/2 times as much storage as a typical DVD-R) However this time could be tougher for Sony seeing 'Microsoft's aggressive push and their deep pockets'.
Nintendo Revolution
Responding to the Nintendo's new sleek design, they said that despite that the console 'lacks a hard drive or built in DVD player, it is expected to be priced lower then its rivals.' With the addition of Nintendo's virtual console, Revolution owners might be playing Mario Brothers and Chrono Trigger on their new consoles legally! While bringing so much history that is based on years of solid games, the Revolution does throw one interesting curve, the controller. While their will obviously be other controller options 'some analysts worry the unusual device may confuse and scare of some gamers', other controller possibilities (such as an original Nintendo controller) were announced during a press conference.

Though the results for the entire year aren't quite in yet, Nintendo's DS seems to be the big winner in terms of hardware sales for 2005. The system sold around 598,000 units in Japan last week alone, bringing its year-to-date total up to 3.7 million and its life-to-date number up to 5.2 million. This means that the DS is beating the PSP almost 3 to 1 in that territory, with the PSP racking up 161,000 sales for the week and almost 2.1 million in its liftime. By comparison, even the Playstation 2 only sold 97,000 for the week and 1.8 million for the year, though the system has had a much longer lifespan and an overall greater install base of 11.3 million Japanese units.
On the other end of the spectrum, the Xbox 360 is off to a much more sluggish start in Japan than it was in the U.S. Analysts estimate that as many as 800,000 360s have been sold in the U.S., while Media Create indicates that since the console's December 10 launch in Japan, the next-gen system has moved only 58,000 systems, 5,600 of which were sold in the week ending December 25.

Addi Lam from the School of Creative Media in Hong Kong designed a working, dare we say, third-party Revolution controller for what he calls a senior design project. The interface was showcased at this year's Asia Game Show. From the article: About the time Nintendo was showing off the Revolution's pretty packaging and dropping hints about the future of game controllers at E3 2005, Addi was showing his teachers a video game he'd designed with a controller you tilted and turned to control. He called it Pebbles.
Granted, Lam's controller is not intended for mass production, but the article gives great insight into driving game innovation through education. Nice work, Addi!

In the shocker of the year, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata decided to let us all know that they are indeed planning on dropping the Revolution for less than the Xbox Core system, no word yet on the rumors of Mario being a plumber. This just confirms the low-cost vibe we've been getting all along from the big N, and seems reasonable given the relative specs they're debuting with, so the main impact of this news is that Nintendo fanboys can officially break out those "our console will cost less than yours" party hats.

Details about the Nintendo Revolution have been few and far between - perhaps Nintendo thinks that tight lips will sink the competitor's ships. But in an interview with Yahoo! News Japan this week, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata spoke out about the Revolution's expected price tag. According to Iwata, the Revolution will slide in underneath the Xbox 360's price range and will definitely be under $299. Could the lower price tag make up for the fact that the Revolution will be released far behind the Xbox 360 and PS3? Only time will tell...

ricbit posted this news:
Hi people, I just finished my first software for Nintendo DS, called Graphos DS. It's a tool for Colecovision homebrew developers, you can edit images directly in the format used by this classic console.
While Graphos DS certainly has no use for most people here, I did include the complete source code in the package, so I hope newcomers to the NDS scene can learn a bit from it.
The site for Graphos DS is: http://700km.com.br/mundobizarro/graphosds.php
