    abuse

Whoa, that's a pretty awesome list of games, let's hope at least a couple of them (Star Control 2 & abuse ;)) appear.

Thanks for the news LyonHrt.

reaper has released his third Easter single game arcade emulator for the dreamcast, this time for Green Beret. This version has a themeable menu system, just like his 1943, Contra, and Rygar releases, but this time it includes an animated intro complete with music.

I have released another demo of my game today, here's a quick summary of whats new:
- Menuing system and options
- Saving support
- Better random battle determining
- D-Pad controls
- Music (from vgmusic.com)

You can get it from my SourceForge page: http://sf.net/projects/ljsdcdev/ . And comment about it in this DCEmu forum topic: http://www.dcemulation.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=31919

BTW: Its the actual demo 3, not the release candidate.

The popups arent showing also :D, don't fix that :wink:

P.s. if everything on newspro is messed up can you please backup the archive, if you need to reinstall newspro? The newspro archive on dc emu and boob are a great source of information for things happened in the past.

Just released a simple port of Jump 'n' Bump. There's no sound or music, and the graphics are in a window in the middle of the screen, because Jump 'n' Bump uses some weird screen size that the DC can't handle. Other than that, it's fully playable, and you can even use custom levels, if you're willing to do a bit of hacking.

Even 100

I head that my nearby shop has sold an even 100 2nd hand DC's in the last 2 years. Not good in comparison, but cool...
