Hot on the heels of the release of TheHiVE’s emulator the other day, we have a second Colecovision emulator in the form of ColecoTech. After the drawn out splashscreens, you have 6 playable games, Carnival, Cosmic Av, Miner 2049, Mouse Trap, Smurfs Rescue and Zaxxon. Sounds and speed are both good. Doesn’t look like scaling is implemented yet though. It’s nice to see another Coleco emulator and you can see it for yourself, by downloading it fromGBAEmu.

No other information about the game is available, but the screenshot reminds me ofChuckie Egg🙂 Anyhow, check out the screenshot athttp://www.tailzone.com.
Blanquita is the first game to use the recently announced and released WIP SDL port for the GP32, it was originally a owner development game for Dreamcast. The source code and binary of the game can be found on the SDL GP32 homepage athttp://sdl-gp32.sourceforge.net/. If you are interested on working on the GP32 SDL port dont forget to sign up and join the team. Already after a few hours of being announced, the project is making good progress so its not a dead project if thats whats holding you back 😉
SDL is going to be ported to the GP32. A first version is out. Get it at:http://sourceforge.net/projects/sdl-gp32/
Ben Stark released a new game called GRUB. It’s a mixture between Crazy Taxi and Dope Wars.
The fresh released Atari 800 emulator from yesterday is now on version 0.3. The changes:
Added option on R key in default.men Added option to B menu in default.men Fixed screen drifting problems
Tyrell release a new version of Speccyal K with a little change:
Minor update: sound is rendered in 44,1 khz instead of 22 khz and it seems to have an impact over the background noises (this problem drives me nuts!) that have plagued the emu until now. For example, if you have noise in Gunrunner or other games, get this version. This is not an update to absolutely get, but if you cannot bear anymore those noises, this update should make you happy.
As the one or other know I tried to build up a community on my boards. This goal has not been reached now and there are really less posts and a lot of members who just signed up and never posted anything. I’ll keep the boards up for the next week. If there is no change in the situation, I’ll completly delete the PDRoms Webboards. It’s up to you now…http://www.pdroms.de/phpbb/
Now the GP32 community get’s a public Atari 800 emulator! More details plus download on it’s page.http://www.scrameta.net/a800.html
