Jayenkai released Centipong for Nintendo DS.

Release notes:

My latest “It’ll grow over the next few weeks” DS project.

Centipong!
Already on the PC along with online highscores, “Focus” rounds, and different pod types.
I’ve finally gotten round to redoing it, and popping it on the DS.

Missing Features
There’s no Focus round yet, but that’s planned.
I’ve not added all the pickups in.
I’ve yet to add additional niceness, too. Like… The titlescreen’s really really basic!

zzo38computer has updated his Xy-Mini emulator.

Changes:

I posted the fixed version now. Now it works correctly.

Xyds: http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/nitro2/Xyds/
XYMTOOL: http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/xym/xymtool.zip

To use XYMTOOL to patch a .nds or .ds.gba or .sc.nds file:
xymtool -f xymfilename -p xyds dsfilename

XYMTOOL includes source-code. It also includes TILEMAKR and MAPMAKER, which are used to create tile sets and maps for XY-MINI (monochrome tile mode only). 8ted can also be used to create tile sets for XY-MINI (but TILEMAKR has a few features that 8ted doesn’t have). If you want to use XYMTOOL on a operating system that isn’t Windows, you have to compile it using FreeBASIC.

Nanodesktop is a library for the development of simple applications under embedded platforms, as the Sony Playstation Portable (TM).

The Nanodesktop library is totally written in C for maximum performance. If you have a platform where you cannot run traditional windows environments, as X-Window (TM), you can try Nanodesktop library.

Release notes:

I have released a new version of Nanodesktop (0.3.5). This version is only for developers, some features don’t work yet (but it is 99% working).

My hope is that other developers can work on it. For example, I’m looking for somebody that can help me to add the support for
the PyKey driver (the code is already written and ready; I need only a programmer that writes the calls to the driver and that tests the hardware).

Irdeto Sage is a Irdeto based file encryptor/decryptor for PlayStation Portable.

Release notes:

Her’s the more polished version of Irdeto Sage file Encryptor/Decryptor for the Sony PSP.

This version adds another step to the crypt algorithms with little time overhead,
also an interface tidy up, and a file footer is added to encrypted files to prevent
encrypting a file twice, or trying to decrypt a file that is already in plain state
(ie. the program knows if a file has been encrypted with this program or not).

Encrypted files produced with IDS V1 are not compatible with V2 for two of the reasons given above.

Full source is given away with this release.

SophT translated dark-jeys Casino Royal. There are three games included: Poker, Black Jack and a Slot machine.

Quote:

I’ve taken the liberty of translating Dark-Jey’s PSP HomeBrew release PSP Royal Casino v1.0 into english. The entire gui is graphical in PNG format, so some of the graphics may not be flashy as the original, but others, in my opinion, are better.

I haven’t done any of the coding here, I simply translated from French to English, So I can’t offer any support for it, outside of language barriers.
