I've got a request for everyone who reads this journal and has a spare ten minutes... I'm interested in seeing different takes on the GUI layout for the game and how the interface should work - including key presses and stylus movements. A picture, something similar to what I did before, would be really cool, but whatever you can manage would be useful. Feel free to describe the picture too, and explain how the controls would work.
I want the game to have a level of customisability but I want the defaults to be really intuitive. I'd love to see what you all come up with! Either leave it as a comment here or email: [email protected]
Any questions? Just comment

Hi,
This is an Alpha1 port of Frodo for the Giz, hence Grodo. Keys use is in a text file in the archive.
Unzip to the root of your SD.
Known issues:
Sound is still a little dodgy.
You can have:
50fps, 0 Frameskip, no sound
or
25fps, 1 Frameskip, sound
The default config is with sound.
I'm trying to optimise it for 50 fps, 0 Frameskip, sound but don't hold your breath with this piece of cr*p hardware. (well drivers and OS to be accurate).
Hopefully most segfaults are gone.
If you are attaching an image and can't get it to run with "Load first program", use the disk browser.
Major credits to Mike Dawson for the gp2x port on which this is based, and Christian Bauer for Frodo in the first place.

Datel have released a new press release today about 2 products that are incoming for the DS, heres the info:
Action Replay DS Blows your Games Wide Open!
It's here - the handheld game enhancer you've all been waiting for. Action Replay DS gets right to the heart of your DS games and blows them wide open with Infinite Lives, Infinite Health, All Vehicles, All Levels and more. As well as cheats, you can also play around with goofy, weird enhancements like Giant Heads, Tiny Characters, Massive Jumps and all sorts of similar silliness. All you need to do is enter one of our special cheat codes from CodeJunkies.com, swap the AR card for your Game card and you're away - you can play with cheats and enhancements the programmers never wanted you to have.
Action Replay DS is really easy to use. All you need to do to activate one or more of the codes stored in your Action Replay card is insert it into your DS or DS Lite, and switch on. When it boots, remove the Action Replay card and replace it with your game card. The game is recognised by Action Replay, and you're offered a list of cheats to activate. These crazy codes have been cunningly cracked by Datel's dynamic dudes, who put in many hours making sure every DS game is trained and tamed. For example, codes for the ever-popular Mario Kart DS include Unlock All Nitro Courses, Unlock All Retro Courses and Unlock All Characters, Cars and Classes. You can Freeze Time, give yourself Power-Ups and Trophies, and bag instant Three-Star Ranks. You can opt to instantly complete any mission with a Three-Star Rank too. There are similarly-sensational enhancements for the rest of the DS roster too.
But what if there are no codes for your game stored on your Action Replay card? How do you enter the Action Replay codes into your AR for DS? After all, you must update your codes database when you buy a new game, right?
Well that's a doddle too. If you have an internet-enabled PC, just run the software app that was supplied with Action Replay DS, and connect your Action Replay to your PC's USB port using the supplied cable. You then press the 'Update' button to download the latest codes database, featuring every code ever cracked, to your Action Replay DS. Alternatively, you can download just the codes you need as XML files, and then transfer them to Action Replay through the app.
If you're into serious handheld gaming, Action Replay DS is a must. It's got everything you need to get to the heart of your game, letting you play them in ways the programmers never intended. And remember, just like the PS2 version, Action Replay DS is not just for cheating.
Action Replay DS : $24.99
STOP PRESS
Hot on the heels of Action Replay DS will be Trainer Toolkit for NDS, a
pro-level game hacking system intended for technically minded gamers/hackers that lets you hack your own codes for use with Action Replay DS. Using the PC trainer software and dev-board hardware, dedicated individuals can now earn the respect of the underground community as creators of truly awesome codes!
Codes can be shared by creating links that make them directly available in Action Replay DS's Code Manager software. Trainer Toolkit for NDS is coming soon - keep watching this space for details. ...by Published on July 25th, 2006 19:17

Press release from Nintendo:
The fourth quarter of 2006 will herald a new era for Nintendo with the launch of its remarkable new Wii™ home video game system. But that's not what this news item is about! How could that be, you ask? Perhaps the secret to the launch information for Wii is somehow encoded in the text of this news item. You might want to pore over it for a few hours before staying up all night to debate phraseology and comma placement with your friends online. Or maybe it's all just a scam to get you to read the other games we have launching this fall. One of the two.
As the weather cools down, the Nintendo portable game offerings heat up. FINAL FANTASY® V ADVANCE makes its way to Game Boy® Advance SP on Nov. 6. As series go, Final Fantasy is to video games what James Bond is to movies. Final Fantasy loyalists will enjoy an opportunity to debate which installment was best.
Nintendo DS™ owners are the big winners. Every week or so, another huge DS title hits, from the Touch Generations title Clubhouse Games™ to fan favorites like Elite Beat Agents™ and Yoshi's Island™ 2. Clearly a gamer's idea of paradise, here is Nintendo's upcoming DS lineup:
Oct. 9: Clubhouse Games™
Oct. 16: Nintendogs™ (Dalmatian)
Oct. 23: Magical Starsign™
Oct. 30: Pokémon® Ranger
Oct. 30: Children of Mana®
Nov. 6: Elite Beat Agents™
Nov. 13: Yoshi's Island™ 2
Dec. 4: Custom Robo™ Arena
Dec. 4: Kirby™ Squeak Squad
And, for Nintendo GameCube™ owners, The Legend of Zelda®: Twilight Princess will be available for you this fall. An enhanced version also will be a launch title for Wii. That will all happen on … Oh look, we're out of space. ...by Published on July 25th, 2006 19:12

Lazyone has released the first Alpha test version of his Mini Vmac Macintosh emulator for the Nintendo DS, heres the info from the release:
The zip file linked to below contains:
Mini vMac application file (minivmac.nds)
50MB Disk image with System 6.0.8 installed and a few utilities and games (mac_hd.img)
Readme.txt (something which you must read first)
Ofcourse you will need to supply your own Macintosh Plus rom inorder for this to do anything, and must have a device supported by chishm’s FAT library.
The archive is around 8mb, all files ( including the rom ) must go in the root of your memory device.
If you would like to donate some spare change towards a supercard CF please use the link on the right.
It may help me support 4mb emulation aswell as increase compatibility of all homebrew I develop.
Target amount is $45 CDN, I will pay for all taxes and shipping.
