Lavalit have released a new SVN build of Openbor for the Dreamcast, Wii and PSP
OpenBOR
----------------------
OpenBOR is a continuation of the Beats Of Rage 2D game engine, which was originally
created by the wonderful folks over at http://www.senileteam.com.
History
----------------------
In 2004, Senile Team released Beats of Rage, a free beat-'em-up for DOS inspired
by SEGA's Streets of Rage series and using sprites from SNK Playmore's King of
Fighters series. The game spread only by word of mouth, but it nonetheless
amassed popularity very quickly. Senile Team soon released an edit pack allowing
anyone interested to create a mod for the BOR engine.
In 2005, Kirby2000 asked Senile Team to open the source code to BOR. They
agreed, and OpenBOR was born. Development on the engine was continued by the
community, and still is to this day.

JLF65 has released a new version of Doom for the Dreamcast, heres his post:
Okay, here's v1.4 of Doom for Dreamcast. Doom for the Dreamcast is a port based on older Doom code. In that sense, it's more like Chocolate Doom. It does support variable resolution, allowing you to run at 320x240, or 640x480, for example. It plays the MUS format music in the WAD files by converting them to MIDI, then playing that via libWildMIDI. Doom for DC supports regular controllers, the mouse, and the keyboard. The primary stats from the HUD are shown on the VMU screen of the controller so that you can play with the screen size set to turn off the status bar....
There are quick cheats, cheat selection, and of course all cheats via the keyboard. Read the readme file for details on that. The game starts in a GUI that allows you to set nearly every option, and save them to the VMU. All IWADs are supported and easily selected through the GUI. It also allows up to four patch WAD files, and four dehacked files, also all easily selected through the GUI. Note that patch WAD files or replacement IWAD files should be DOOM compliant, not BOOM compliant.
Network support allows you to play against up to three other players across the internet. On the Dreamcast, you need the BBA to use networking. The readme describes how to setup the network options. It can be a bit involved, so please read it carefully.
Since the last official release, preset files have been added. They are text files that go in the presets directory. There is a readme in the directory that explains how the files should be made, and includes a couple examples. This version also uses the store queue to improve the frame rate... you get an extra four FPS in 640x480. Remember that the music is also currently being played by the main CPU, so you can turn off the music for another one or two FPS. Every little bit helps in 640x480 mode.
There are two files: one is the SelfBoot Inducer file; it's a zip file that is load by SBI to make a DC disc. Be sure to add any IWADs to the iwad directory (and other files to their respective directories) before actually making the disc in SBI. The second file is a 7zip arc of the source directory the way it is in my projects directory, suitable for making a self-boot disc via makefile (make selfboot). Again, add any needed files to the proper directories before doing so.
DCDoom-SW-CW-1.4.sbi
DCDoom-1.4.7z
If you make this yourself, be sure to remember to make libwildmidi (included in the source), and be sure to patch and update the KOS biosfont (also included). Here's an arc of just the biosfont diff file for anyone who just want to look at that (cough - BlueCrab - cough). Also remember that KOS thread functions changed a bit, so the Doom source won't compile on older versions of KOS. Please update your toolchain and KOS. There's a thread on how to update to the latest here. It's for Windows, but can easily be applied to linux as well. The only thing is to use gcc-4.5.2.tar.bz2 instead of gcc-core-4.5.2.tar.bz2 as the instructions say; the core version has a bug that causes it to fail when building gcc for ARM.

Evil Dragon has posted yet more WIP news concerning the Pandora:
Well, seems the cases are arriving very well in time.
They are scheduled to arrive in UK on Monday.
Give Craig a few days to handle customs and pick them up, but we should definately have more than enough cases needed for Batch 1 (and the beginning of Batch 2).

Its not quite a sequel but I suppose it is in a way a successor to Tick Tock Car Race. It certainly borrows a lot from it.
rather than racing from checkpoint to checkpoint you are instead tasked with destroying five tanks as quickly as possible.
Use the nunchuck analog stick to move and the wiimote point and B button to aim and shoot.
To be honest I’m not particularly happy with it. There where a lot of things wrong with Tick Tock Car race but most of it was behind the scenes and at the least I thought the gameplay was fun. But I’m not sure that I can say the same about Tank Fight…
The music used in the game is Biosphere by Joshua Arámbula.

Ctr-Gcs-DacoTaco-Edition 0.1 released by DacoTaco
Ctr-Gcs : DacoTaco Edition is a tool built to create or restore full, raw memory card backups and GCI save files just like the GC application Ctr-gcs did. These dumps can be saved to restore later or be used in emulators like Dolphin-emu. Unlike ctr-gcs however, this utility can read or write to unofficial memory cards; no matter what its size is.
The program will read & write the dump to the SD card (in the ctr-gcs folder) as card_dump.raw
Also please note that if you restore a corrupt dump to a memory card, or if the program shows an error while creating or restoring a dump, you may end up with a corrupted memory card.
Todo list
- Fix CARD_Create error -6 (failure to create cause previous delete didn't free the allocations correctly) on GCI restore
- Do another attempt to get nintendo cards working flawless (no need for GC game or SM to unlock card)
- Make code nicer to look at
