Most of the older emulation and homebrew followers might remember EMU-LMAO. The owner points out mistakes or odd behaviors of more or less known webmasters and news-posters of related scene pages, and adds his serious to sarcastic comments.

I’ve read the older news of the past months and it was quite interesting. To answer one question for EMU-LMAO – Indeed I need to be in bad condition before the other PDRoms staff members get active. You should be happy about that anyway, otherwise “birthday greetings” might drop out of the main news too fast 😀

Thanks to GameCop for the marvellous hint, as I did not know EMU-LMAO reopened his doors again since already quite a few months.

This application allows you to read large Text (.txt,.text), Palm Doc (.pdb), Mobipocket (.pdb,.prc,.mobi), Plucker (.pdb), HTML (.htm,.html), and Fiction Book (.fb2) files quickly and efficiently on the iPhone/Touch. This application doesn’t have the fancy formatting of ruBooks or Books.app, but it can quickly load and display large text files that currently cause Books.app or other UI Text View/Web View based apps problems. If you want to load books quickly and read text, this may be the app for you.

Note: Books.app http://code.google.com/p/iphoneebooks/ and ruBooks http://colel.info/rubooks/ provide a formatted display of text and images. If you are willing to break up your book into smaller chapters they may also be options.

Yabause Wii is a Sega Saturn emulator for Wii and is the first of its kind as emulating the complex processes of the Sega Saturn is much harder then it looks and now even harder to run it on the limited hardware of the Wii. Yabause Wii can now run a small number of commercial games at usable speeds (5-10fps) were it is still possible to play the game.
