A speech synthesizer for the Nintendo DS. Author notes:

I am releasing this since I already have an entry to the NeoFlash comp. It’s a port of a speech synth from Atari ST. Currently I have a list of random crap I found off the Net for it to say. You will notice some words arn’t pronounced properly. It uses a rule based approach to interpret text. Adding a dictionary would bloat the ROM, but would improve speech pronounciation substancially. I havn’t removed the NeoFlash splash screen (sorry) What use is this for? Well,nothing yet! o_O

GPF has ported NeoPop, one of the better NGPC emulators, over to the Nintendo DS. This is a very early attempt, do not expect too much. There is one integrated ROM which is a homebrew Snake clone. It is not possible to play or add something else yet.
