ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

Some of the adventures ScummVM supports include Adventure Soft’s Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution’s Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep’s Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision’s Gobliiins; Westwood Studios’ The Legend of Kyrandia and games based on LucasArts’ SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. You can find a thorough list with details on which games are supported and how well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually improving, so check back often.

Release notes:

It was not that long since our previous release, and now here is a new bugfix release hot off the press!

brkirch has released a new version of his version of Gecko OS a Nintendo Wii hacking accessory. Using Gecko OS by itself you can boot imports and use cheat codes. However, if you use it along with the USB Gecko you can hack your own codes and have access to enhanced debugging features.

Changes:

– Added channel loading with hooks, channel menu supports same database.txt format as AnyTitle Deleter MOD to replace the channel IDs with channel names (put database.txt at the root of the SD card)
– Ocarina works on channels
– ELF/DOL loading from geckoload now works
– Optionally the directory data/gecko can contain the codes folder, patch folder, gameconfig.txt, config.dat, and background.png instead of the root of the SD card
– GC memory cards are no longer detected as a USB Gecko
– Changed how exit works; if a loader other than the homebrew channel was used (or an old version of the HBC) it will return to the system menu
– Fixed a text overlapping bug that would happen if a disc error occurs and Ocarina is on

Frodo is a Commodore 64 emulator written by Christian Bauer ( http://frodo.cebix.net ). It was ported to the Wii by Simon Kagstrom and does not share any code with FrodoWii.

Put .t64 or .d64 files in /apps/frodo/images on your SD card. The in-game menu allows you to insert disks/tapes, load them and configure the display, joystick ports etc. Saves will be stored on the SD card and the preferences are stored persistently. Wiimote 1 is by default the joystick in port 1 and wiimote 2 the joystick in port 2, but you can swap this.

Changes:

Holger Eilts has improved the menu layout quite a lot
Loading separate files in a .D64 from the menu is now possible (Holger Eilts)
It’s possible to store and load files in subdirectories now
By pressing F10 while in a network game, you can type in a message to the other player with the USB keyboard
Sound cracks are now gone (thanks to Tantrics new SDL work)

A central SVN repository has been set up for SDL Wii (http://wiibrew.org/wiki/SDL_Wii) If you want to help maintain the port, please contact Tantric to be added to the project.
