The first tiny steps towards Nintendo 64DD emulation!.

-->
Jrra has begun fiddling around with trying to add 64DD support to Mupen64Plus. 

Currently F-Zero X boots but crashes at the disk insert screen, don't expect to see games running until the year 2074, not even all 64dd titles have been dumped for testing!.

You can follow the snail speed progress here:  https://bitbucket.org/jkbenaim/mupen64plus-ui-console-disk

Pier Solar hacked and dumped.


Pier Solar has now been hacked and dumped to work in a special version of Mess. I will not post it here since i'm sure you guys can find it on your own, i'm more interested in who did it and how.

Through some google detective work we find a site created just some days ago called http://hackpiersolar.com/ it's already gone and www.archive.org doesn't have the page saved, but google cache has it!:

https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache%3Ahackpiersolar.com%2F%3Fpage_id%3D6&sugexp=chrome,mod&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

That's alot of text only to have it deleted some days later, but now we have a back story which is always fun for scene history.

Finally you can "enjoy" cd-i Mario & Zelda with keyboard support.


dem0 has released a program called MAH BOI that adds keyboard support to the cd-i emu (yes the emu only has mouse support!).

Currently it only supports Hotel Mario and the Zelda games so now you don't have to suffer through those masterpieces with a mouse ;).

Not a prototype, but a hard to dump game cart.

This game took a long time to reach the internet and is also latest licensed Game Gear that wasn't dumped and released so far! Modder extraordinaire Ichigobankai helped to get this dump done. Thank you :)"

NBA Jam proto with swearing released by Nintendoplayer.


"Truly, this has to be the most ridiculous “prototype” Nintendo Player has gone through yet. Nothing’s quite as surreal as hearing Kitzrow yell out, “Grabs his Johnson!” on the Super Nintendo as secret character, Bill Clinton, makes a frantic grab for the ball while letting out a series of digitized grunts."

Get that shit outta here!

Right click on the image at the bottom of the page to grab the rom. http://www.nintendoplayer.com/prototype/nba-jam-xxx-super-nintendo-prototype/

                 "Bruce Willis Apocalypse Pro Skater"

Well this was news to me!, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 uses the Apocalypse engine and Bruce Willis is even in a prototype of the damn game haha.

You can even use some of the Apocalypse cheat codes in one of the Tony Hawk protos.

Thanks to LedIris for informing me of this weirdness.
