Stella DS is a port of the Atari 2600 emulator Stella to the DS. So far it supports loading and executing ROMs, an optimized framebuffer, and joystick controls via the D pad and A button. Changes:

8.28.05 – Framebuffer optimized. Version 0.4

The emulator has been quite optimized and plays at a smooth playable speed now thanks to a faster framebuffer drawing routine. I will continue to work on it though and add sound.

I need to order a Wifi card to do more complete experimentation because there’s pretty much no hope at all of getting a replacement Neo Flash.

Thanks GPFerror and DesktopMan for some help with the DS graphics code. Feel free to try some optimization of your own! 🙂

Reesy has updated his Megadrive/Genesis emulator”Dr. MD”. It’s to be used with a GP32. The new version uses an updated M68000 core by Notaz. This means a few more games will work like Street Fighter. This version has not been processed by beta testers, so there might be problems.
