I think your probably out of luck.

Considering the relativly lower popularity of the Wonderswan (as compaired to other systems that really aren't supported yet on the DC) and the extreme amout of time to "port" (AKA, "rewrite 99.9%") the code, I doubt an emu will pop up.

If you can get the source and email it to me, I will see what i can do about porting/re-coding it to work on the DC... I couldnt find a link for the source on the site. If you do email the author please CC me

I think they would both kick A$$... especially the Lynx one... i dont see the source for the wonderswan one on the site either, im not quite sure, but i think handy might be written in C.... that would help a little if it was, but im pretty sure the renderer and controls and such would have to be rewritten wouldnt they?

I possess part of the source (according the emu's author the most important parts) however, he will be releasing the entire source v.soon.

Oh and I'm surprised that not many more people are in interested in this topic, especially considering that it would mean yet another unique emulator for the DC (in the way that it's the only one of it's kind on the DC)

Edit: Also, for your info, the source is in C++

Its partly because of Nintendos Kung-Fu Death Grip on the handheld market... and partly because I dont think hand held emus get the same interest as console ones (unless its GBA

) for some reason...

I havn't played either system, but I'm sure that both of them would be very cool! My congradulations go to the people who take these tasks.

I always thought that a Wonderswan was the JP name for the PSX O_o

While I'm always happy to see more emulators on the DC, I wish some of the current emulators would get updates...not having a save function in the SMS emus means no Phantasy Star...

(same goes for no sound/saving in Boob!Boy...)

Let's not swamp Atani with port requests now...he has his work cut out for him between DcGen and trying to port the Wonderswan emu...
