CrocoDS Alpha v0.1a CPC 6128 emulator for DS

The Amstrad CPC (Color Personal Computer) was a series of 8-bit home computers from the 80s and early 90s. The Amstrad CPC was designed for head-on competition with the Commodore 64 and Sinclair ZX Spectrum systems. The CPC came in four configurations:

• 464 (Tape deck, 64 KB RAM, square-edged keyboard)
• 472 (Tape deck, 72K RAM)
• 664 (3″ Floppy disk drive, 64K RAM)
• 6128 (3″ Floppy disk drive, 128K RAM, more PC-like keyboard)

Why are we telling you this? Because we came across a CPC 6128 emulator for Nintendo DS called CrocoDS Alpha v0.1a by My Ketchup Is Dead. Okay, we’re not sure about the developer’s name. Our “French” tongue is limited to four-letter words.

CrocoDS Alpha v0.1a allows the loading of files SNA and DSK in the root of the GBA cartridge (use of the LIBFAT of picodriveds) while pressing the Select button. Pressing R starts again the emulator. Pressing  L switches between the emulation joystick and keypad. The developer is working to replace “the core Z80 out of C by a version asm (I think of directing myself towards the bookshop DrZ80 Reesy to create for MAME), to add the support of the zippées images.” The bitmap of the keyboard is temporary.

This is where our limited French comes to an end.
