EvilDragon, official distributor for the GP2x in Germany, presented the GP2x to the guys at GigaTV a while ago. The show was over 2 hours long and the interesting GP2x parts have been recoreded and can be now found online in the GP2x Archive (there are 4 parts). Please note that this show is in german language, it might not be of use for you if you don’t understand german.http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,1216http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,1217http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,1218http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,23,1219

Squidge uncovered a new project to the GP2x community. This time a PC-Engine / Turbo Graphics 16 emulator. Release notes:
I finally got my PCEngine project to work! Currently it runs R-Type at 45fps at fs0. No sound yet though.
Don’t worry about SSNes, it’s not been abandoned – I’ve just taken a break for a few days, and will now be able to implement all the stuff like volume control, in game menus, etc, into both emu’s.
This emu uses exactly the same menu system as SSnes, and will have the same in-game menu style/etc. So it can use exactly the same skin files as SSnes. However, I don’t think most people want a picture of a SNES in a PCE emu, so anyone willing to create a new background should get in touch via the“comments” section. Hopefully rokdcasbah is working on some icons for the emu, so no need to worry aboutthose.
Backgrounds can be tested in SquidgeSNES 0.34, but anyone whos serious can of course have a beta of this emu to try there artwork on.
thechuckster has released a new version of Stella DS. It’s a port of the famous Atari 2600 emulator Stella to the Nintendo DS platform. Release notes:
I integrated chism’s FAT file I/O library into StellaDS to add the much needed support for high capacity flash memory devices. Create a directory called stellads in the root directory of your device and stash all of your ROMs in there. No need to recompile to get new ROMs! The buggy, awkward GBFS approach is no longer in use. Also, the menu now supports a near-infinite amount of ROMs thanks to the wonders of std::vector. Scrolling beyond the list works now as well. Directory traversal has not yet been implemented, however, so don’t try selecting the dotted file names at the beginning of the list.
Included in the StellaDS download is a sample stellads ROM directory that you can copy onto your memory card to try out some free, public-domain Atari 2600 ROMs. Report any bugs to me via e-mail or on the forum, and have fun playing Adventure on your DS once again!
DSOrganizer is a new application for the Nintendo DS, but the homepage nor the .zip file tells any details.http://www.youngmx.com/?loc=ndsdev/NDSDEV

The Amiga emulator Uae4all has been updated to version 0.2. Thanks to GP32x for the news. New in this release:
Added diagonals to directions Fixed down-left causing return to menu (select does that now) Added left mouse-click by pressing L button (does the job) Added right mouse-click by pressing R button (untested) Tested with Chaos Engine as well now (handles disk swap)
Image provided by: criticalCritical has ported the Amiga emulator Uae4all to the GP2x.
This is a quick hack it ‘n’ ship it release of uae4all on the GP2X.I’ve done very little work on it (I spent a couple of hours doing the port), and what I have done has polluted an otherwise nice codebase, so sorry to those who’ve put in the effort to keep it tidy – I’ll get around to bringing my changes up to your standard later!
