Pokemon Mini Emulation & Homebrew

[Clements]

Yep, that tiny console that Ninty quietly released is in the process of being emulated right now, with an emulator imaginatively called Pokemon Mini Emulator. The interesting part is the homebrew games that are being developed, including a mini Metroid clone.

I tried the emu and it seems to be in the early stages. There is a debugger version available and the source is open. There are also (PD) demos to try out. There are also tech docs available for budding programmers who want to emulate the system.

That looks cool. Speaking on the Mini Pokemon thing, did anybody ever emulate that little Pikcahu belt clip mini game thingy? I don't know if it could really be fully emulated because if I remember correctly the thing measured how much walked or how much vibration the unit took.
