Homebrew CrocoDS

[Metaluna]

CrocoDS is a very impressive CPC 6128 emulator for NDS developed by Redbug.

Most games are already fully playable with sound. I've been able to play Crafton & Xunk (aka Get Dexter), one of my amstrad favourites.

0.5a features:

- full mapping of keyboard.
- New menu.
- load disk with or without autoload.
- Realtime for most of the games.
- overscan screen display.
- Press R to scroll up / down the screen.
- stereo sound (pretty crappy)
- roms can be stored in the root, ROMS or AMES directory
- zip roms suported.

next release should have new keyboard, save states support and games compatibility improved

How to play :


* SELECT to get the menu

* *.ds and *sna files must be in the root of your flashcard.

* Use the stylus to type on the amstrad keyboard

I have to add that this emulator is VERY nice! Even tho I never actually played a real AmstradCPC, there are many games for it that I am familiar with from my C64 days (Ninja, Zenji..) Good stuff!
