no$gba is one of the most accurate GBA emulators for the DOS and Windows32 platforms and is written by noone else than Martin Korth. Since v2.2 it also emulates the NDS partitially. no$gba in it's base version is freeware but for a fee, depending on your legal status (hobbydeveloper or professional developer) you can order a key, which enables a debugger, which is THE item, no$gba is known for.

Arwin has ported his Keyboard app Psprint to Lua, heres the info:

I have now completed porting p-sprint to lua (see http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=2913 for more info on the c version of p-sprint )

This contains the following files:
http://www.niwra.nl/psp/p-sprint-lua/psprint.lc
http://www.niwra.nl/psp/p-sprint-lua/index.lua

The psprint.lc is a lua include file for easy use.

The index.lua is an example of how to use the include file to read p-sprint like text input.

(It's my first lua program and (thus obviously) the first time I made an include file - things may therefore look very messy, but at least it works; input is appreciated )

I will post my process here as I did in my p-sprint thread, and input is more than welcome.

Done:
- keychars
- keycodes
- keynames
- keygroups
- modifiers
- key repeat
- make into lua include

Still to do:
- trainer
- the wrapper functions for readex (e.g. the blocking calls like getChar)
- allow user-configuration of keymaps (all six available ones)

I have started a dcemu halo2 clan and you are all invited to join!

Just msg me on live, Darksaviour69 and I will add you too the clan. ...

Thanks to PDroms for the news.

Remotely control your Windows PC with a NintendoDS. Changes:
v0.1a:

Fixed problem with screenshots updating and worked around another (screenshots should never stop updating now).
Fixed potential lock-up with password checking.

NJ has updated his own version of the continuation from the last official release by Yoyofr (although Zelurker has updated his version to 0.7.2 now). The translation from google is poor as usual but here it is:

* Frame processing of skip was modified.
* Automatic frame skip was added.
* In addition correction.

Anyone who can translate it better please do.

Anyway download this new release and let us know if its any better in any areas, downloads and feedback via comments ...

KaosOverride has updated the Amstrad CPC emulator Caprice to the GP2X, heres the translation of whats new:

Eliminated scr_width, scr_heigh, scr_window and scr_style of the CAP32.cfg (so that? 320x200 full screen and goes that it shoots... no? )
Eliminated of I cosay to 32 source all "drivers" of 24 and bpp
Added parametro -- nosound to deshabilitar audio (Priority on parametro of the CFG) Asi we can have the audio one qualified, but deshabilitar when we want from scrip or the selector of Kounch, without reediting the CFG - DIRTY TRICK to raise framerate... I have obtained with frameskip zero that emu shows the same rate of imagenes that without the sound before. 200Mhz we can play 84% of the speed of the original CPC, and 250-266 mhz the 100% in mayoria of the cases. It depends on the intensive use that matches of the AY (audio chip of the CPC) the AY makes us lose a 12% of the speed... Not to use frameskip greater of 2, because this DIRTY TRICK fight a little with I cosay of frame skip...
Eliminated button START for reset of the CPC (So that? mola to see those yellow letters in blue bottom and despues you not key in anything) and used now to mostrar/quitar info of emu. SELECT continues being worth to leave emu.
Volume + and -, they serve now to fit the volume 8)

Wumpus is a remake of an old computer/calculator game called "Hunt the Wumpus". It was available for the calculator TI99/4A and many other systems.

Description of "Hunt the Wumpus" from wikipedia.org:

Hunt the Wumpus was an important early computer game. It was based on a simple hide-and-seek format, featuring a mysterious monster (the Wumpus) that lurked deep inside a network of rooms. Using a command line text interface, the player would enter commands to move through the rooms, or shoot arrows along crooked paths through several adjoining rooms. There were twenty rooms, each connecting to three others, arranged like the vertices of a dodecahedron (or the faces of an icosahedron). Hazards included bottomless pits, super bats (which would drop the player in a random location) and the Wumpus itself. When the player had deduced from hints which chamber the Wumpus was in without entering it, he would fire an arrow into the Wumpus' chamber to slay it. However, firing the arrow into the wrong chamber would startle the Wumpus, which might then devour the player.

Originally written by Gregory Yob in BASIC while attending the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, and noticed on mainframes at least by 1972, Hunt the Wumpus was first published in the "Peoples Computer Company"1 journal in 1973, again in 1975 in "Creative Computing", and finally in 1979 in the book MORE BASIC Computer Games. Building on several grid-based games of the "Battleship" variety, Yob injected adversarial humor into the computer's hints, prefiguring the "voice" of the Infocom narrator. 1 Later versions of the game offered more hazards and other cave layouts. An implementation of Hunt the Wumpus was typically included with MBASIC, Microsoft's BASIC interpreter for CP/M and one of the company's first products.

kennethdm has released a new game for the PSP, heres the info from the coder:

This is my first homebrew attempt, it's a simple game, but not so easy to win. The goal is simple, you have to find out what the secret code is.

Using left and right on your analog pad, you select the circle.
Using up and down you change the cirle's color.
If you are satisfied with the colors of the row, press cross,
now the little circles will show how good your guess was:

-the number of green circles is the number of correct colors at the correct place
-the number of blue circles is the number of correct colors at the incorrect place

This game is limited to 6 attempts, it is based on mini mastermind which is a mini version of the original mastermind.

If feedback is positive, I plan on expanding the game with the following:
-more (and harder) game modes
-high score list
-two player mode (one player inputs the code, the other one has to crack it)

for any (constructive) feedback: [email protected] / or this thread
