Sephiroth_FF7 brings us another update of his Ghostbusters remake for NDS.

AgentQ released an update to his ScummVM port to the Nintendo DS.

Release notes:

Hi Everyone,

Here is a second beta version of the 0.11.0 release of ScummVM DS. It needs lots of testing, since there are so many games that I don’t have time to do much of it myself. So please download it. Please post, even it it works fine!

The new scaler makes text a lot more readable, at the expense of some slowdown in some of the newer games.

New function keys should make all the AGI games playable.

This is a beta release, therefore there are not full instructions. This is designed for those who already know how to use ScummVM DS. Full instructions for the older version 0.10.0 are provided on the ScummVM DS website. Please refer to these instructions, as this beta works in mostly the same way.

Also, I have been told that the same code which runs Day of the Tentacle and Sam & Max can also run some of the earlier HE games, so I have added these to the list below. They seem to work fine. Please test them too!

Changes

Beta2
– Future Wars and Gobliiins now work again
– Swapping the screens while the software scaler is enabled no longer causes odd effects

Beta1
– New games supported: Elvira 1 and 2, Waxworks (Amiga version)
– Software scaler for improved image quality. Turn it on using the DS options screen (press select during the game). Thanks to Tramboi and Robin Watts for this feature!

Circus has posted few more screenshots of his new project “Yoshis Labyrinth”.

http://playeradvance.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17705

The goal of this project is to create a port of NetHack for the DS utilizing the unique features of the DS to create an easy-to-use NetHacking experience.

Release notes from Abcd1234:

Yes, already. Fixed a map rendering bug in graphics mode caused by wall tile substitution in the NetHack core (this was evident when going from the regular dungeons to Sokoban, where the wall colours are supposed to change, but didn’t).
