mGBA v0.6.3 (GBA emu for Nintendo 3DS)

mGBA is a Game Boy Advance emulator written in C. The project started in April 2013 with the goal of being fast enough to run on lower end hardware than other emulators support, without sacrificing accuracy or portability. Even in the initial version, games generally play without problems. It is loosely based on the previous GBA.js emulator, although very little of GBA.js can still be seen in mGBA.

* GB Video: Fix bad merge (fixes #1040)
* GBA Video: Fix OBJ blending regression (fixes #1037)

Colossal Cave Adventure v1.1 (3DS Game)

Colossal Cave Adventure (also known as ADVENT, Colossal Cave, or Adventure) is a text adventure game, developed originally in 1976, by Will Crowther for the PDP-10 mainframe. The game was expanded upon in 1977, with help from Don Woods, and other programmers created variations on the game and ports to other systems in the following years. [Text from Wikipedia]

Changes:

– Added coll pause after a page of text (press A to continua)
– Changed text color to green
– Added possibility to swap color to white with R+UP
– Added possibility to swap again color to green with R+DOWN
– Started formatting textes to the narrow 3ds screen
– Starting the game with R pressed, forces an update of the game data on SD (needed to load the new formatted textes)
