BrawlStats is a Wii application that will have to be run after a Super Smash Bros. Brawl session. It will store automatically on your SD your results and then you will be able to navigate freely through a clean GUI that will show you a lot of information that Brawl doesn’t store (or doesn’t show). It also gives different trophies to players that achieve certain records. It can be like a database of your Brawl matches.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are updating from older betas you must move your .bss files from sd:/brawlstats to sd:/config/brawlstats and also copy the new meta.xml overwriting the old one.

Changes:

warns user if a session was not created correctly (due to a corrupted SD card, for example)
shows a loading bar when reading sessions from SD

Boondoggle by Matthew Newell is a collection of word games with a very complete English dictionary, user profiles, and achievements as well as an original soundtrack.

Changes:

-Overhauled dictionary streaming engine (much faster word checking in Rhythmoggle)
* Streams the index into memory during the splash screen and title screen
* May require a small one-time loadscreen when you select a game (depends on whether the index is loaded by that time)
* Push the d-pad while making fireworks on the loadscreen for a bit of fun smile.gif
* After the initial load, everything loads much more quickly
-Added some graphical pizazz to tapping tiles in Rhythmoggle
-Fixed some graphical corruption on Rhythmoggle results screen
-Fixed cyan pop-up during loading

Foxy and Pascal remade Core Design’s Rick Dangerous for the Genesis/Megadrive. The Megadrive/Genesis port results from a reverse engineerd Atari ST version and a complete recoding in 100% Assembler. It’s not based upon xRick, which most ports rely on. The game has been tested on real hardware and works!

Will Rick Dangerous, intrepid Super Hero and part-time stamp collector, survive his first mission in the Aztec temple of the tribe? Should he do so, Rick will face new hazards in the Egyptian tomb and the enemy fortress
