This update finally fixes iEVO compatibility. Sudokuhax users need not worry, this project will work for you as well. The emulator requires an ATARI 5200 BIOS file (renamed to 5200.rom), please do not ask us where to find it.

The 3DS, despite being a higher-end piece of hardware than the DS -- and, yes, bearing a much higher-end price -- still bears the same resistive touchscreen technology as its seven-year-old forebear. Why would Nintendo opt for older touchscreen technology, eliminating the possibility of multitouch and forcing the use of a stylus?
3DS hardware producer Hideki Konno told Joystiq it's because of that seven-year-old DS screen. "Really, it's all about the backwards compatibility," he said during an E3 interview. "We have to play DS games on this and we want to make sure they work."
Konno said that Nintendo didn't think there was currently sufficient technology to both enable a more feature-rich touchscreen and accurately emulate the touch interface of the legacy DS. "Now that technology may come out sometime in the future, but when we were making our decision on what kind of touchscreen to implement," he said, "that was one of the deciding factors."
That, of course, doesn't explain at all why the Wii U uses the same vintage touchscreen technology. Unless the Wii U is secretly capable of emulating DS games! We're totally onto you, Nintendo.*
*We're probably not actually onto you.

The Gamecube and Wii emulator for Windows has been updated once more, heres whats new:
Changelog for 7593
Windows: Sets the cwd to the folder that dolphin.exe resides in.
Removes the ugliness that was the portable file, and now creating a shortcut or file association is less of a pain
it is still necessary to modify the file association from ".../dolphin.exe" "%1" to ".../dolphin.exe" /e "%1"

icedaddy offers version 1.0 of " Alphablocks "educational game (spell the letters), adaptation of Alphablocks for the Nintendo DS.
I have made a simple Alphablocks game for my son. (Actually it's a shameless rip-off of the Alphablock introductions from the CBeebies web site ).
In making this I had to write a simple media player for the DS, which I call viDSnips. It's not bad but the sound handling could do with a little tweaking. Maybe I will release viDSnips as a DSGM plugin later...
A couple of things to note:
1. If you run this game in an emulator it may run slow (and therefore a bit crap) depending upon your computers performance.
2. The game is rather large so I've RARed it up. Just unpack the alphablocks.nds file.
Have fun and get learning those letter sounds.

ThatOtherPerson , yes it still offers a first draft of " Shooter Cubicle "FPS in a fully destructible 3D environment for the Nintendo Wii.
I had intended to get more done before posting it but I’ve been very lazy lately so anyways here is the first demo of Cubicle Shooter for Wii.
Cubicle Shooter is a first person shooter with a focus on highly destructible environments.
It is very incomplete and is really just a tech demo right now. My plans for it are essentially the same as what I was planning for the original PS3 version but it is more of a remake then a port. Everything is being completely re written. There is also now a PC version.
Use the nunchuck analog stick to move, the wiimote cursor to turn, the A button to jump and the B button to shoot.

News via http://www.emucr.com/2011/06/fceux-svn-r2205.html
Fceux SVN r2205 is released. FCEUX is a cross platform, NTSC and PAL Famicom/NES emulator that is an evolution of the original FCE Ultra emulator. Over time FCE Ultra had separated into many separate branches. The concept behind FCEUX is to merge elements from FCE Ultra, FCEU rerecording, FCEUXD, FCEUXDSP, and FCEU-mm into a single branch of FCEU. As the X implies, it is an all-encompassing FCEU emulator that gives the best of all worlds for the general player, the ROM-hacking community, and the Tool-Assisted Speedrun Community.
Fceux SVN changelog:
r2205
sdl - added "vsync toggle" to TODO list

After showing E3 attendees a new level in Sonic Generations, game producer Takashi Iizuka highlighted some of the extra content that can only be found in the 3DS version. "One important thing to say about the Nintendo 3DS version is that besides Green Hill Zone, which is the starting zone on all versions, all the stages on the Nintendo 3DS version will be different from the stages that are seen in the PS3 and 360," Iizuka said.
Generations will revisit and remix levels from Sonic's entire history, including his Genesis and Dreamcast outings, but only the 3DS game may borrow stages from older handheld games. "For the PS3 and 360, none of the stages we're selecting are going to be from the handheld," Iizuka explained during a brief Q&A session. "However, on 3DS we're looking at picking stages from handheld as well."
The portable version of Generations will also offer a special stage, a two-player versus mode and a battery life that should effortlessly summon nostalgia for Sonic's Game Gear days.

The highlight moment of my time with Mario Kart 3DS didn't involve blue sparks, bananas or any sort of weaponized carapace; though, naturally, all of those elements make a reappearance in the colorful racer. The key moment was the first time I hit a rather innocuous-looking ramp and, once airborne, produced a hang glider from my vehicle's undercarriage.
It wasn't a particularly surprising moment -- your car's new utilities were revealed in the trailer showed during Nintendo's E3 press conference -- but it was certainly an interesting one. The new aerial and underwater portions of each track aren't just fresh new obstacles for you to dodge using the series' tried-and-true system of drifting, boosting and item-firing. They represent challenges for you to navigate using entirely new methods of control.

Nintendo has revealed that the Wii U console won't be "drastically different" - that's why the E3 announcement focused on the tablet controller.
But Nintendo top-dog Satoru Iwata admitted he "should have made more effort to explain how [Wii U] works".
"We haven't made any kind of blunder," Iwata told the Evening Standard, referencing a fallen Nintendo stock price and defending against allegations of a confusion-causing presentation.
"But I should have shown a single picture of the new console, then started talking about the controller."
"The console is not drastically different," he added, "and Wii U is about the controller. The console itself will be almost invisible."
Exactly what will be inside the console hasn't been specified. We know it's theoretically capable of matching PS3 and 360 output thanks to a show reel aired at the Nintendo E3 conference (albeit of actual PS3 and 360 code rather than Wii U). How far beyond the ageing PS3 and 360 tech Wii U can go, however, remains to be seen.
Iwata went on to echo what he said to Reuters, and told the Evening Standard that people can't properly appreciate Wii U until they play it.
"They cannot see how this can be a game changer," he said of people reading about but not experiencing Wii U.
"What Wii U will offer is very different," Iwata added. "But I believe we have the strong potential to change the entire format of video games and of entertainment."
Eurogamer has played Wii U, and we tallied with Iwata's argument by declaring that "as soon as you pick that controller up, you understand the genius of Nintendo's idea."
But how will Nintendo demo Wii U to every potential customer? That's what analysts are worried about. Wii, a runaway success, had one universally clear message: motion sensing.
Wii U details are gradually seeping out, however - and Eurogamer cobbled together a list of seven things you don't already know about Nintendo's new console (unless you've read the article already you cheat).

THQ's kids, family and casual division boss Martin Good has claimed that he is not perturbed by the Nintendo Wii U's similarities to THQ's own uDraw controller.
"None of this is a surprise," he told CVG in regard to the Wii U's tablet controller and drawing capabilities. " As you know, we thought of it 18 months ago and released it last season."
THQ claims to have shipped 1.7 million units of its drawing-centric, tablet-like peripheral for Wii, and now plans to release Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions.
He felt the similarities between uDraw and Wii U could even be to THQ's benefit. "We think we're really on the front for it and well poised to exploit this because we've already been playing with the drawing mechanic and we've got a lot of game designs in the pipe. It's only going to get better with that experience."
Good also claimed that "THQ never really went about being a peripheral manufacturer - that wasn't our intent", but had done so due to perceived market opportunities for drawing-based console games. "The fact is we had to create our own peripherals including for 360 and PS3 to be able to play with that audience."
