EvilDragon uploaded a video of the Amiga emulator UAE4ALL running fullspeed on a pandora devboard.

Quote:

Yep, here is some video I took running UAE4ALL on the Pandora Devboard!
It’s running fullspeed (and is limited so it doesn’t run the games faster than fullspeed!)
The selection of games is quite limited – as my devboard doesn’t have keys and inputs yet, I needed to find videos which don’t have cracktros and start demonstration playing… no easy task.

Pixelman is an sprite editor which will work directly on your Nintendo DS!

Changes:

– Added one option to top screen, press gear icon to turn top options on when screen is switched.
– Press little icon near corner of palette to enable palette size changing. 8×8 blocks max, 2×2 min. Press same icon to stop.(small note… believe it or not, both the palette and any loaded bmp are on the same 16 bit layer…)
– More Options button on Options screen is in progress, right now does the same thing as Done…
– You can now see as many files as you want in the sprites, palettes, and bmps directories. Can’t go into other folders though…
– Fixed a couple of minor bugs, and one that kept multi-frame sprites from updating correctly…
– Hold fill icon for about 1 1/2 seconds to go into persistant fill mode. Press again to stop.
– Hope I didn’t forget anything…

Do you remember the two farting guys “Terrance & Phillip” from South Park? Now those two guys have their very own computergame on the Atari 2600 platform.

Release notes from atari2600land:

OK, I think I finally got level 5’s background color down pat. It’s still gray, but then I realized that Terrance’s shoes weren’t visible. So I changed them to black, which meant changing the opening/title screens’ background color to white. I also made level 1 day instead of night so you could see his shoes better. I also made small changes to Terrance’s walking sprites.

Flashcards and loaders are bad? Does it cause the homebrew scene go RIP?
