Unofficial PocketNES v9.98-K

Kuwanger has just put out an Alpha version of his unofficial PocketNES emulator, v9.98–k. Here is what he had to say:

Yep, I’ve decided to do another PocketNES version with compressed file support. There are some rather major changes to the design, though. Here’s a list:

1. Only supports up to 128KB ROMs (to avoid all sorts of nasty stuff)
2. Now works with GBA LZ77 compressed files too (use extension .l77)
3. Only works with pogoshell (this is unlikely to change given how much of a hassle it is to getting compilations to work well with compressed files)

Having stated all that, this is my first go at reproducing compression support with PocketNES, so I’d assume there’s going to be at least a few bugs. You can use the old pocketnes-k’s nez_cmp program to compress files to .nez and my own d or other programs like dcmp and GBACrusher for .l77. They’re not included with the binary+source.

Note: This is primarily a test release. I’ve not done extensive testing to see if save states and the like are broken (though I doubt they are). Please reply with any positive/negative comments.

You can get it in our NDS Download section [here].
