ASCII Pong is a Pong game for the WII just using console mode and no graphics. It is done in black and white colors to look like the original classic Pong game. It can be played by one or two players. It will operate in one player mode until a key on the second Wiimote is pressed. The ball speed can be adjusted on the Instructions page. If you miss the ball the Wiimote will rumble.

Gouky ported the Amiga emulator UAE to Wii.

Release notes:

UAE4Wii is a port of the famous amiga emulator UAE based on UAE4all from Chui.
Pressing home will bring the GUI.

Wiimote is used as the mouse but also as pad #1 and pad #2

A = Left mouse click
B = Right mouse click
1 = Fire button
+ = Quit when emulating

To come, a nice GUI with advanced functions, a virtual keyboard and surely an update of the UAE
base source code used by Chui for UAE4ALL for more compatibility.

UAE4all : Chui
UAE : UAE Team

The Homebrew Browser allows you to download the latest homebrew applications and games all through your Wii. You don’t need to take your SD card out. You don’t even need a computer! You can also delete homebrew you no longer want.

Changes:

– Able to view currently installed applications
– Fixed bug in downloading and removing applications which affected uno and may have affected other applications
– Retries increased to 10 times with a longer pause in-between
– Able to reboot the Wii by holding B and pressing Home
– Detects if you have a .elf version of any application and lets you update that application
– Now uses zip files which means download sizes are reduced (thanks Tantric)
– Added SDHC support
– Detects if HBB icon or meta file exist, if they don’t then it downloads them

Thanks to Tantric the Homebrew Browser now has zip support. This means that applications that were classified as having too many files can now be included in the HBB. Applications now will take less time to download however the trade off is it takes a little while to extract the zip files.
