Here’s the changelog from Hermes, translation courtesy of Google:
- Supports roms in. PCE or compressed. Bz2 (the program can compress to this format, by pressing a button) or. Zip
- Supports ISO and a special file. Toc which contains a description of all tracks of audio-data. Ie: my emulator also supports the audio (which can be in formats. WAV or. OGG) or discs with multiple tracks of data.
- I have prepared a utility for you to create the file. Toc and tracks data in. Iso formato.ogg and audio from a CD-ROM image in CUE / BIN
- It supports up to four Wiimote and you can configure the buttons to add autofire or exchange them, for example
- You can save the state complete a game to recover and continue playing later. The saves are compressed to minimize space
- You can capture a frame format. Bmp and then display it from the same Wii or export it to the PC to portray a good death XD, a score achieved or curiosity. When entering a rom the meter is set to 0 and will catch numbering in succession. On the stand CDROM, for example, Dracula X is reduced its size from 506MB of. Bin to only 63 MB using iso / ogg.
- I strongly recommend that you read the readme.txt, especially how to create files. Toc (though the utility bincuesplit it will create everything automatically, if you have the game on CD-ROM image format BIN / CUE.

Snes9x GX 005

SNES9xGX 005 have been released to the wild… cheat support, super scope, mouse support, DVD support…. could it get any better? Thanks Tantric, michniewski, and Tehskeen for the news..
Tantric and I (michniewski) are proud to present a new version of Snes9xGX. This release is especially significant because the core has been updated to Snes9x 1.51, which should make many games work, and it fixed many annoying issues. You can see the full changelog here: http://snes9x.ipherswipsite.com/ Special thanks to the snes9x team.The menu layout has changed since 004, and many items have been moved around. Hopefully this layout makes more sense.
Preferences are saved in an xml file so they can be edited easily. You can also load and save over SMB on the wii now - and thanks to the preferences, all that you need to do is set up a SMB share, and update the settings in the Snes9xGX xml preferences file.Superscope, Mouse, and Justifier support has been added in this release, controllable with the GC controller, classic controller, or wiimote.
Cheats have been enabled. Put .cht files with the same filename as your ROM in the snes9x/cheats folder and enable/disable them via the menu.
Thanks to libdi, you should be able to load DVDs in wii mode. Make sure you have DVDX installed. See http://hackmii.com/ for more info.
Finally, you can now choose between 3 render modes: Filtered, Unfiltered, and Original. Original and Unfiltered offer sharper graphics - modelled to give an output as close to a SNES as possible. Using unfiltered or original modes is recommended. (original only available on non-component video cable setups)
See the readme for full changelog and more information.

News submitted by krazywhiteguy310
kickflip720 has released a homebrew PacMan app for the Wii.
Tried to release this the other day and it disappeared, so I’ll try again!
Simple pacman emulator supports wiimote, nunchuck and classic controller.
All working but sound is a bit dodgy (any help appreciated).Tested on a PAL Wii using a 16:9 screen.
Any problems let me know.
Sorry its not MAME, but the best I can do at the moment!
Roms
====
You will need to acquire the Mame romset for this. It is usually called pacman.zip. It should contain the files: pacman.5e, pacman.5f, pacman.6e, pacman.6f, pacman.6h, pacman.6j, 82s123.7f, 82s126.4a.Create the directory \pacman\roms\ on the front SD Card and insert the files.
Copy the files boot.elf, meta.xml, icon.png into the directory \apps\pacman\.
Credits

The emulator is based on two existing applications:-Midway Space Invaders Emulator by softdev
A quick roll your own emulator package - TehSkeen.com

Visual Boy Advance GX 1.0.1
September 18th, 2008
Posted by KrazyWhiteGuy310
Just one day removed from a VBAgx release and theres already an update. The future looks bright for this emulator
Here’s an updated version that should fix the speed issue. I had to compile GBA.cpp using gcc 3.4.6 from devkitppc 13 to use optimizations. The rest was compiled with gcc 4.2.3. If anyone can figure out how the get the whole thing to compile with performance optimizations under gcc 4.2.3, you’d make me happy!
[What's New 1.0.1]
* GBA games now run at full speed
* Menu improvements, with spiffy new background - thanks brakken!
* Fixed L/R buttons - they work now
