Im posting this in off topic becuase it really only belongs here, but for me the last say 3 or 4 months the whole homebrew scene with the exception of releases for the DS scene in the Neoflash Contest has been quiet with only a few glimpses of hope.
The PSP scene has quietened down majorly for me with only the odd release that really gets the juices flowing and no breakthrough that really pusshes the system for a while.
Wii Scene for me seems to be doomed by that impending iso loader, make no mistake its bad for the scene, if the likes of bushing etc get pissed and pack up then we may lose homebrew on the Wii, unlike Sony with the PSP, Nintendo are actively persuing shops, sites and more with a lot of money behind them, my biggest fear is that they somehow deem by legal methods that say the twilight hack is legal, again im no legal person but big companys can afford to piss over the little guy in court and even the likes of QJ/Max-console with their Millionaire owners cant take on the likes of Nintendo.
The Gamecube scene because of the Wii scene has seen its most active year since it was started and is probably the most exciting and least to feel any after effects.
The DS scene has seen some very good releases esp via Neoflash Contest, i personally with to seemore emulators pushing this baby.
GBA scene is mostly dead now apart from a few emulators and the odd game.
GP2x will most certainly die once Pandora is released and the Wiz wont get the attention it deserves because its coming after Pandora.
PS3 scene isnt getting the juices flowing despite the fact that bd-j homebrew is playable on nearly all ps3 consoles.
still the 360 has lacklustre XNA and no real homebrew and the xbox scene uses the illegal xdk, surely by now alegal alternative could have been made.
am i right or very wrong, i just feel very downbeat at the moment, yes theres some great stuff released but overall its been a barren few months/year overall.
The Pandora may get the juices flowing again majorly though?
