Looking back at the game now, Super Monkey Ball: Touch & Roll's stylus controls can't compete with the level of immersion and intuitiveness we're seeing with the Wii's labyrinthine games -- Mercury Meltdown Revolution, Dewey's Adventure, and Kororinpa: Marble Mania. Thanks to homebrew hardware like the MK6-Motion and the DS Motion Card, though, we can now emulate the same motion-sensing features on our handhelds.
It's unlikely that any commercial release will ever acknowledge these unauthorized add-ons, but homebrew developers have already put out over twenty games and demos that use the data gathered from the accelerometers/gyroscope. Check past the post break for videos and screenshots of three puzzle titles that've been rigged to detect your tilting DS.

News/release from Fantasymaster & Bigboss :
hi guys! I'm here to release the first version of PyPlayer!
This homebrew is based on lua player concept, and allows users to run and try on psp their python script based on pspython by Fraca7 -not oslib-.
We have implemented a not totally working file browser (that filters only directories and .py script), and a secondary module that clears the namespace module after a script launch!
This module even delete all .pyc compiled files in the loaded script's directory (this cause slow speed in loading and deleting modules generated from the script).
Note that when you exit from a script you'll return immediately in pyPlayer main screen, and you'll be ready to launch another script without return to XMB
function:
-refresh directory
-dynamic import/clearing modules in namespace
-file browser (not totally working)
-screenshot mode (pressing triangle)
-help mode (pressing circle)
-dynamic reloading of all modules
-dynamic deleting of .pyc files
-.py loader
note:
-script intended to be loaded must'nt be called "script.py". those script will be ignored by loader (in order to prevent incompatibilities with script.py main instance of pspython by fraca7)
-the file browser is incomplete (can view only 49 items between files and dirs in cwd....other items are present but not displayed)
-in current version, some script may freeze when repeatedly loaded (this happens with triple triad psp v.0.1.1 by sakya)
TODO:
-we have to improve file browser
-we have to improve loader
-we have to add various psp common functions
-we have to enable USB connection

Hey all,
I've received my samples of the G6DS real and SuperCard DS ones some time ago thanks to the G6team and KickGaming and have taken my time to bring you a proper, unbiased review and comparison of both units. By taking my time and using both units for a longer period of time I have really been able to give a good impression of both products.
quote; "I have combined their reviews into one big review + comparison so that I review both products and compare the main products of the big names of the GBA slot era. A short history lesson; The G6team (and the M3 team) and SuperCard Team are the producers of the most well known set of flashcards. The G6 team has their G6 series (flashcards) (the M3 team had the M3 product line) and the SuperCard has their SuperCard series (media adapters with RAM onboard). These two(/three) products are the best known and well dispersed of all the GBA (media) adapters (not counting the GBAMP). Now both have had their DS slot solutions out for a while, the SuperCard was the first of the two, thus both have been able to flush out the first few bugs out of their soft/firmware so now is a proper time to compare the two."
I hope you'll enjoy the big, trust me, it's big but hey that's in-depth for you, read. Also keep your eyes peeled on my website and news blog because I have lots more where this came from (reviews and guides); The CycloPS DS evo, hopefully the XCM V-box PAL (including a modding guide), possibly soon depending on the shipment the new XCM 1080P VGA box and last but not least the WiiFree Easy Connect Wii drive-chip solution.
Also I'll soon update my beginners guide to DS hb so be sure to keep an eye out for it
.
Cheers,

News/release from Weltall:
here it is a new version of cwcheat: 0.1.7 REV.D, which was primarly delayed because the changes to be made to the site were more important.
The most important things about this version is a rewrite of the umd reading functions (some of the first being executed when the prx is being loaded).
This resolved a problem which could affect people with slow umd drives or damaged umd which could lead to more time in bootup and so making cwcheat crash when trying to access them.
So this should make cwcheat more compatible with the 3.40OE firmware.
except this trough other optimizations and the switch to -Os it was possible to reduce the size of the prx making it more compatible with other plugins.
Finally some important things made on the site are the addition of a wiki based documentation (still being written), a bug tracker (mantis), a new server and a huge cleanup of the db which made it being used again in the release package of cwcheat.
Code:
CHANGELOG:
0.1.7 REV. D RELEASE
=====================
- 0000009: [ALL] fixed automaking of a code for found trough float search which used 3 in place to 2
- [ALL] various optimizations to reduce file size in order to increase compatability with other prx
- [ALL] switched from -O2 to -Os which reduced size of ~15kb and didn't seem to do a noticeable change in speed
- [GAME] rewritten the initialization code which reads the id from the disk. Now it waits for the disk to be mounted without using time hacks. This increased compatability with slow umd drives/damaged umds in 3.40 OE systems
- [DB DOWNLOADER] updated to reflect the new server
- [DB] The db was cleaned removing some bogus codes which had zeroes on them or blank spaces: so now the db included in cwcheat is being updated again with the one on the site in each release
- [SITE] the site was moved on a faster host, the download section was fixed and now it's working again
- [SITE] Added a wiki documentation which will be expanded in the future and user can add things to it (translations are also welcome)
- [SITE] Added a bug tracked based on mantis. If you find a bug or something wrong with cwcheat or the site please file a bug report there. But report things correctly saying all the steps to reproduce it else they will be discarded

One of Nintendo`s biggest games of the year arrives on the Nintendo DS, over in Japan they are buying like mad The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, heres the full details about this game:
The epic story of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker continues as Link finds himself lost and alone in unknown seas in a new adventure. Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. But time grows short, and only the Phantom Hourglass can buy Link the minutes he'll need to survive.
Many months have passed since the events of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and Link, Tetra and Tetra's band of pirates have set sail in search of new lands. They come across a patch of ocean covered in a dense fog, in which they discover an abandoned ship. Tetra falls into danger when she explores the ship alone, and Link falls into the ocean when he attempts to rescue her. When he washes up unconscious on the shores of a mysterious island, he is awakened by the sound of a fairy's voice. With the aid of this fairy, he sets off to find Tetra – and his way back to the seas he once knew.
features
The stylus makes controlling Link easier than ever. Tap on the screen to make Link move, or sweep the stylus around him to swing the sword. Players can even draw a path for his boomerang and send it flying into hard-to-reach targets.
Players can stash the map on the top screen for quick reference or drop it to the touch screen to make notes, study enemies, or chart a path for their boat to follow while they man the cannons.
Compete with a friend over a local wireless connection: Guide Link through special dungeons to capture the Triforce or command the forces that oppose him.
