If I can recall, there were some coding competitions like this for the GP32. Most of the time, some pretty darn good programs came about because of them. The GP32 got a near-full speed SNES emulator as a contest winner for one. *I believe it was near-full. At least that's what I've heard. I never got the money to actually purchase a GP32 and test it. *

So basically lik-sang is having a contest with stuffs that's forbidden to use on the PSP? (you're not supposed/allowed to use homebrew on the PSP from Sony's pov).
Interesting...

You remember well the GP32 did indeed have these, and what everyone is missing with all the moaning is that it gives a fresh influx of software. It attracts people who otherwise wouldnt code for the psp to do so.

Im hoping for stick drum man

Though with the attitude of some of the selfish people who want it all for free and now! Im suprised if they will bother. One thing the GP32 scene did have, is a respect for the coders, something missing in the psp scene.
