diedel has today posted details of what could be a very very interesting addition to the PSP Scene and opens up the doors to a Virtual Boy Emulator and also games like FreeCNC:

Heres the details:


Hi all,
I would like to share my Allegro PSP WIP :)
A simple graphic driver and the a mini keyboard driver using the PSP controller are implemented by now. It compiles and links with success some Allegro examples and the excellent Humphrey remake (the main reason for converting the library :P )

Two Allegro examples:

It's a graphic library used for rendering images etc.

Think SDL, similar thing.

Basically people would use this in the creation of a game or application.

Allegro is a C++ Game development libray for PC. Nice to see a PSP port of it! I use this on Dev C++ my favourite lib :)
