17:46 - iMac Uploading Saves the Day! - SirYoink
RockNES is up. I've uploaded it, but I'm still frightened by how Jandar found it first. Anyways, this emulator is the first serious competition for iNES on the Mac, and has the following features:

• 6502 CPU emulator by Matthew Conte
• Full PPU emulation with scanline gfx engine
• NES I/O (such as joypads)
• Sound emulation (all the 5 channels and VRCVI sound)
• Palette (very closed to real NES)
• Color emphasis used by some games / NES demos
• Monochrome mode
• Save RAM (backed battery, if present/used by a game)
• Mappers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 32, 33, 34, 40, 41, 42, 43, 64, 65, 66, 68, 69, 70, 71, 73, 75, 78, 79, 85, 88, 90, 91, 94, 97, 99, 110, 113, 117, 151, 160, 184, 187, 189, 225, 226, 227, 228, 229, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 246 and 255. Most of these 69 mappers have full support.
• Konami's japanese VRCVI sound chip emulation (Akumajou Densetsu/Madara)
• VS Unisystem arcade machines (missing linked-system) in .NES format, emulated as mapper #99
• Famicom DiskSystem (preliminary), emulated as mapper #20.

12:35 - RockNES MacOS port - Jandar
Richard Bannister has ported RockNES to MacOS. I seem to be having some trouble getting the file uploaded here locally, so for the time being you can find the MacOS port of RockNES on Richard Bannister's site. I will add it to our NES emulators section as soon as I possibly can.

23:29 - BeOS Emulation Site Troubles - Jandar
An emulation site dedicated to emulators for BeOS, BeEmulated has made an announcement regarding the site's future. The creator of the site no longer has the time to devote to the site and it may be taken over by another individual. I certainly hope that this is the case, as opposed to watching the site die.. I owe thanks to BeEmulated, from which I recieved information on many emulators that went into our BeOS emulators section.

23:24 - G-NES Release - Jandar
Version 0.42 of G-NES, an NES emulator for Windows, has been released, and I've added it to our NES emulators section. Both English and Japanese versions have been released, but I can't seem to find a list of updates in English, so we'll have to leave it at that I'm afraid. Thanks to EmuHQ for the news.

15:49 - Translation News and Stuff - Airety
Good God, this is going to take a year.

• Square Translations has gone underground because l4m3rs demanded that they hurry up. That gets quite annoying over time, I can see why they'd do that. They are working on Live a Live and Rudra no Hihou. They'll release the patches when they are good and ready, and that's it.
  
• Ice Translations is going to be working on Crayon 2 for the SNES and Kunio Soccer for the NES. They're looking for dedicated translators if you can help.
  
• Some crazy anime game called Project in Nakoyoshi World has been released by Project Sailor Moon. You can get it from the English Translation Page It's for the SNES/Super Famicom.
  
• Also added a complete patch for Daisenryaku, a game for Gameboy. See link above :P
  
• Vice Translations news:Boku Dracula Kun(NES) is delayed. Wai Wai World 2 (NES) is going well. Nettout King of Fighters 96 (Gameboy) is cancelled. New project: Nekketsu High School Dodgeball Class: Soccer Story (NES) aka Nintendo World Cup. Except Nintendo World Cup is the watered down version.
  
• There's a screenshot released for Megami Tensei 2. BLAH. Looks good, thats all that matters :P
  
• From Demi, regarding a game called Radical Dreams, which is the TRUE sequel to Chrono Trigger:
  You may recognise this text from Chrono Cross's future ruins "Chronopolis". However, it is actually the introduction for the SNES game Radical Dreamers, which I am trying to translate into english. It's the original sequel to Chrono Trigger; the game Chrono Cross is based off of. It was quietly released in Japan in 1996, but never came out in english. Things I wondered about in Chrono Cross are explained in Radical Dreamers, like the relationship between Kid and Lynx, and who Guile really is.
  I've had some troubles translating it myself though, and I could use some help. First, I could use another translator, one with fluent language skills (no undergrad japanese students please). I have a translator but he tells me he may not be able to translate the entire game on his own. Second, I'd really like to talk to someone that has thorough knowledge of the LZ77 compression method and its variants. The game has text compression that i've almost fully hacked, but there's one last peice of the puzzle I just don't understand.
  apply here.
  You would be working with two people (me, and a translator), over the internet. I can't offer you any money for this work since it's a fan translation, but you would be given credit for your work, and everybody who loves Chrono Cross will love you and throw parties for you and stuff.
  Please, spread this message to everyone you can. Demiforce would love to see the english speakers of the world able to play this game, but we need your help.
  If you can help, help. That's all :P
  
• Wakdhacks news! Wonder Project J is somewhere near completion. Feda: Emblem of Justice is on hold. And they have lots of new members :P
  
• Oh yeah. Here's that Megami Tensei 2 or whatever site.
  
• And Wakdhacks has made a SEKRIT UNDERGRAWND ALIANSE with the now UNDERGRAWND Square Translations to translate the good, nice, caring, often relieving Rudra's Treasure for the SNES. This is good.

Ok, now since I don't know whats up with the person who maintains our English translations section, I think we need someone for that. I don't like having to take notes when I go to Whirlpool because I'll have to post about the stuff. We need someone who's hip, and cool, and hip with the English translation scene. Being Hip is a major plus. E-mail Jandar about it because whenever I hire people it takes four years for them to be added :P

0:31 - RockNES Release(s) - Jandar
The RockNES emulator has seen quite a few releases recently, and they all seem to have centered around attempts at fixing trainer support. It appears they have finally accomplished the mission, however, and version 1.303 is now available from our NES emulators section. Apparently trainer support is now fixed with certainty. Thanks to EmuHQ for the news.

19:52 - Comic Strip - Plightro
I have started a comic strip tackling some of the touchy issues of emulation, emulator writing, translating, and being an emulation webmaster. My first comic has to do with the incredible irony in "The Emulation Economy". Please read it, and give me feedback on the message board. Let us know what you think.

This comic strip will not necessarily be updated on a scheduled basis.

12:29 - Tales of Phantasia - SirYoink

DeJap has announced that they are teaming with various other groups and will not only be releasing an english patch, but will also be jointly producing patches in Spanish, French, Swedish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Danish and Russian!

19:16 - z26 Release - Jandar

12:25 - WinX68k Release - Jandar
A new version of this rapidly improving emulator for the X68000 system has been released, and I've added version 0.50 to our X68000 emulators section. I don't really know much about this emulator, but apparently it is getting quite good with all these improvements being made regularly. It may not yet be as good as Ex68, but it is getting there. Thanks to Vintage Gaming for the news.

1:45 - BeOS Emulators Added - Jandar
Well, it's late (or early), but we finally have a section of SGC dedicated to emulators for BeOS. At this time there are really very few emulators available for BeOS, but those that are out there are now available right here in our BeOS emulators section. Hopefully SGC will continue to grow and expand, and in doing so prove more useful to those are you who rely upon us for everything emulation. Thank you!

18:42 - MasterGear Release - Jandar
In another recent emulator release, Marat Fayzullin has released an updated version of his GG/SMS emulator MasterGear. So far only the FreeBSD and Windows ports have been updated, and the Windows port is commercial, requiring payment in order to acquire it. The FreeBSD version, however, is available for download from the MasterGear homepage. I will have the emulator uploaded locally at some point later today once I am home from work.

18:31 - Pasofami Release - Jandar
Version 1.4c of Pasofami, a Japanese NES emulator for Windows, has been released, and is currently available from the Pasofami homepage until I am home and able to upload it locally. I don't really know what is new in this release, as information regarding this emulator is in Japanese.

22:53 - WinSMS Plus News - Jandar
The homepage of the SMS Plus Windows port has been updated with some news of the status of the project. According to the post, the port will be taken over by Michael Teator, and the future of the project should include "an improved user interface, bug fixes as usual, and whatever features our users can think up.."

22:46 - Save State Editors - Jandar
I have been hard at work on the Save State Editors section today, and I believe I have brought it up to date with all the latest Save State editors from Che and Bastardly Productions. I have added almost a dozen new editors, as well as adding updated versions of several of the editors.

22:22 - SD3 German Translation - Jandar
G-trans has released a complete German translation of Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2) into the language of German. The latest version of this patch has been added to our German translations archive, and can also be downloaded directly here. Thanks go to Special Man (of G-trans) for emailing me about this release.

22:16 - Jnes News - Jandar
The Jnes homepage has been updated with assurance that the emulator is certainly not dead. Here is the official word from the site:

Hi, been a while since I updated, noticed a few people wondering if Jnes is dead. Since the last update, the project has been undergoing mostly rewrites and cleanups for quite a while, unfortunately while that was going on I have had other projects to work on so it kind of took a lower importance, but it's not dead. As far as releases go, I still haven't figured out what will happen, maybe I'll release a beta some time soon I don't know, a few things need work.

In addition to this, Jabo has released a image decoder for the game Killer Instinct. It's very basic at the moment, but if people like it we may see substantial improvements made to the program in the future.

12:44 - French BoF2 - Jandar
A French translation of Breath of Fire 2 has been released by the group Final Translations, the homepage of which I seem to have a bad address for, and reportedly this is a 100% translation. The latest patch can be found within our French translations archive, or downloaded right here. Thanks to Biglo, the SGC translations maintainer, for contacting me with the news in his period of being unable to update the site himself.

12:37 - G-NES Release - Jandar
Version 0.41 of G-NES, an NES emulator for Windows, has been released in both Japanese and English. The latest version of this emulator can be found in our NES emulators section. I don't know exactly what is new in this release as the list of updates appears to be available only in Japanese.

1:33 - SNES9X Update - SirYoink
In response to what myself and apparently several others reported about SNES9X's latest Mac release, John Stiles, who ported SNES9X to the Mac, had this to say on the emulator's homepage:
"Many users have written in to tell me about sound problems with the current version of SNES9X. This bug will be fixed in the next update; in the meantime, it can usually be solved by enabling virtual memory. Also, the next version of SNES9X will be able to work natively under Mac OS X Public Beta (I still haven't received my copy yet)."

0:31 - Relieve - SirYoink

Relieve

20:04 - DBOY Release - Jandar
Also a new version of DBOY, version 0.70a, has been released, and I've added it to our Gameboy emulators section. I don't really know what's new in this Japanese emulator, but you can find any information that does exist upon the DBOY homepage.

19:58 - VisualBoy Release - Jandar

21:41 - EX68 Release - Jandar
Version 2.14 of EX68, an x68000 emulator for Windows, has been released, and I've added it to our X68000 emulators section. I don't really know what's new in this release, as all information regarding this emulator is in Japanese (as always ^_^). Also, the homepage of this emulator seems to have slightly changed it's address since its last release. The new address is http://www.ksky.ne.jp/~yamama/emul/

10:53 - CMNES Release - Jandar
Version 0.12 of CMNES was released recently, and I've added it to our NES emulators section. Two versions are available. The A version uses the emulator's old graphics mode and runs faster, while the B Version uses the newer graphics mode, but pays for it in speed.

23:46 - Mega Man 2 Editor - Jandar
The author of RockNES has created a level editor for the game Mega Man 2, which is currently available from the RockNES homepage, and will be made available here in the very near future.

21:31 - Xmame Release - Jandar
Version 0.37b7.1 of Xmame has been released, but be warned that this release does not include Xmess, only Xmame, so if you are looking to make use of Xmess you will have to stick with version 0.37b6.1. The latest version of this emulator can be found on the Xmame/Xmess homepage. Here's what's new in this release:

• Everything from mame 0.37b7, no mess yet
• Added support for USB joysticks under FreeBSD thanks to: Christian Weisgerber

17:49 - Boycott MacOS updated - SirYoink
Boycott, a Gameboy emulator ported to the mac by Richard Bannister, has been updated to version .6.3c . Here's what's new, via a little magic I call "cut 'n paste":

• Implemented a full cheating system. You can now enter Game Genie, Pro Action Replay, and Game Shark codes, and these can be turned on and off during gameplay. In addition to this, Boycott includes pre-entered cheat codes for over 300 games, thanks to the efforts of Hank Chill. If you'd like to submit cheats for more games to add to future versions of this database, get in touch with Hank directly - his contact details are in the Boycott manual.
• Fixed the bug that caused 4MB ROMs (notably Tomb Raider) to crash the emulator.
• Added an attempt at supporting Hi-Colour video (used by a few games, for example Tomb Raider). This support is far from perfect right now, but it does produce somewhat recognisable pictures.
• Added the ability to adjust the interrupt timing for the few troublesome games that require it.
• Added the ability to configure colours for Black & White Gameboy emulation.
• Added smoothed video support (as seen in some of my other emulator ports).
• Added a key for disabling the speed limiter temporarily. (The default is 'T', but this is configurable).
• Added the ability to turn off sound emulation.
• A few other miscellaneous tweaks.

12:30 - French Translation News - Biglo
Two cool French translations added: First, Final Fantasy VI has been retranslated by Terminus Traduction and also Dragon Ball Gokuden translated at 5% by Sstrad.
Check our French translations page!

A new version of WinUAE, the Windows port of a popular Amiga emulator, has been released, and I've added version 0.8.14r2 to our Amiga emulators section. Here's what's new in this release:

• FIXED: Sound-buffer slider gets disabled when no audio output is selected.
• FIXED: German GUI DLL is accurate now. (Thanks Georg)
• ADDED: Flicker-free Amiga screen updates when full-screen. Doesn't affect Picasso96 screens, though.
• CHANGED: Sound output tweaked again, should be "slightly" better.

16:37 - New Table File - PKT Paladin
I added a new table file for possibly one of the best NES RPGs ever. It was never released in the U.S. because some idiot forgot to send it over. However, it was officially translated by Nintendo and auctioned off (maybe on Ebay but I don't know for sure). Neo Demiforce bought the officially translated copy from the winner for a large sum of money (according to their web site) and dumped it. Afterwards, after finding a few bugs, they cracked the ROM so that it was playable in NES emulators, and not constantly showing a message about it being an unauthorized copy of the ROM.

This ROM is Earthbound Zero (A.K.A. Mother in Japan), and it is available for download in the Table File Archive.

22:39 - DeJap Website Back Online - SirYoink
DeJap's website, http://www.zsnes.com/dejap is back online with a new layout. They have made the leaked beta available for download, as well as some of the old patches for Dragon Quest VI. They are apparently working on Bastard! now, as well. Keep in mind that these are older patches, though, and are not representetive of recent work or the finished product.

13:17 - EX68 Release - Jandar
It's been a busy day for emulator releases, and this next one is an updated version of EX68, which is an X68000 emulator for Windows. Version 2.13 of the emulator is available from our X68000 emulators section. I don't really know what is new in this release, as all information regarding this emulator is in Japanese.

13:11 - Another SNEeSe Release - Jandar
It appears that couple new releases of the SNES emulator SNEeSe have been released. The latest version is 0.472, and is available from our SNES emulators section. Here's what's new in both version 0.47 and 0.472:
0.47

• GUI: Extended the width of the Load ROM window (per request)
• Source: Ported the mode 7 emulation to NASM
• Display: Tweaked with the 256x239x256 setup code - appears to have been causing problems under some conditions
• Config: if it can be detected that a full path was supplied to start the emulator, it will now force the current directory to that path (temporary fix for Windows Explorer drag-and-drop startup until I do it a more elegant way) - ensures SNEeSe can find its .cfg and .dat files
• Config: Fixed some of the defaults used when a config file isn't present

10:36 - RockNES Release - Jandar
Another NES emulator release today! The DOS port of the RockNES emulator was updated to version 1.200, and can be found in our NES emulators section. Here's what's new in this version:

10:54 - SNEeSe Release - Jandar
Version 0.46 of SNEeSe, an SNES emulator for DOS, has been released, along with it's Source Code. Here's what's new in this latest release:

• Timing: Fixed a source inconsistency bug which could cause unpredictable SPC timing

17:36 - New Table File - PKT Paladin
I made a new table file for the Gameboy Color ROM Crystalis. The table was a pain to make because there are so many letters in it. Because thingy does not support these letters, the symbol next to the letter is that which is supposed to be above it. For example, ñ would look lik n~ while editting the ROM. I apologize for this inconvenience, but I can't help it because I didn't write thingy.This table along with many others can be downloaded at the table files archive.

16:14 - New swedish translation! - Scotcher
The Translators has started to translate Tiny Toons Adventure into swedish. This is meant to be a translation for kids. But anyways...

20:23 - MAME Release - Jandar
Version 0.37 beta 7 of MAME has been released. For those of us in the realm of the unknowing, MAME is a very popular multi-arcade emulator that has pretty well swallowed up the world of arcade emulation. The latest version of this emulator can be found on the MAME homepage. This release adds support for about 15 additional games, and many PlayChoice-10 games. Also, countless other changes have been made, a list of which can be found on the MAME "what's new" page.

21:07 - SNES9X Mac updated? - SirYoink
SNES9X for the Mac has been updated to version 1.30 . This new version alledgedly has MacOS X compatability and requires CarbonLib. However upon testing it, the emulator runs slowly and produces static in the sound. You can go to emulation.net to download it and test it. I'll upload it here when I am sure it works. Email me if you are able to make it work correctly. Send any bug reports to John Stiles on emulation.net.

21:02 - Victoly Boy Alpha 4 - SirYoink

22:13 - DarcNES Release - Jandar
Version 9a0901 of the DarcNES Linux port has been released. DarcNES is actually a multi-console emulator that began it's life as an NES emulator and has since evolved. The latest version of this emulator can be found in our Multi-console emulators section. Here's what's new in this release:

• Fixed the Apple ][ disk emulation to set up it's menus properly.
• Added support for a file open box to the Apple ][ disk driver (only works on the unreleased windows port that nobody has except me).
• Removed some dead (old 6280 core) code from cal.c.
• Cleaned up the PCE CD code a lot.
• Tracked down a bug with CD audio playback only to find out that fixing it requires more info that is available and a total rewrite of the lowlevel CD code.
• Then hacked the code up to not break too obviously.
• Changed the coleco, sms, and sg1000 drivers to use the periodic event scheduler instead of for loops.
• Removed a useless-looking line of code from the PCE VDP (I hope it wasn't important).
• Started adding code to support testing the Marat6502 core.
• Moved SN76489 (sms_psg) update control from the VDPs to the system drivers.

Click here to read the full Post at ZSNES.com

An Enourmous amount of things have been added, which probably would be best read yourself in the readme.txt.
Among them is the much anticipated C4 Emulation. Due mind that zsKnight notes, that just because it is 1.000, doesn't mean it emulates the SNES perfectly.
