I've obtained a few new demos
Each comes as a NDS and a DS.GBA (rename to PME)
Description:
nibbles 1.1 - fixes various bugs. The snake now has a large head. The cherry sometimes is 2 cherries. Use the touchscreen to guide the snake.
tetris 1.1 - hold down A when booting to get the 2-player screen. On the pc this is the X key.
calc_arm9 - a ti-85 calculator. Use the touchscreen to simulate pressing the calculator keys.
Results:
Dualis r7 - each demo works well. In tetris, pressing X is tricky, but can be done. You cannot change the background colour at all.
DSemu 3c - tetris and nibbles blank screen. Calc boots up, but the bottom screen is blank. Clicking in random places produces input - you just can't see what you're clicking.
Ideas 2 - same as DSemu except no touchscreen (as usual).
HyperDS 3 - none of the demos would run

HyperDS also hasn't been released to the public. That leak is extremely old and I'm sure Firefly has come a long way since then.

HyperDS runs a few of my demos. It has a very nice front end. It's a pity I can't get hold of a newer version for testing, because I think it would probably do quite well.
This is the list of what does something:
cube_emu : works with a lot of flashing
dsmode4ep : produces some strange colours
first1 : works
ship_emu : starts running in blue, then a bunch of graphics error messages
texture_emu : works - sideways
tri_emu : works - wrong colour
I'll try to describe it. You can choose a screen size of 320x240 or 640x480. Strangely, only one of the screens has been emulated (the top one).
Menu:
File - Load - Binary - (choose a file)
File - Exit
Options - Frameskip - (various)
Options - Show - OSD
Options - Zoom - 320x240 or 640x480
Options - Configure - (see below)
Emu - Resume / pause / reset / Step
View - (debug options see below)
Tools - Screenshot
Help - Check for Update (greyed out)
Help - About
The debugger has these views: Disassembler, memory, Processor, Log, Cheat Finder, Palette, Sprite, Graphics. I know nothing about this, but it all appears to work.
The Options - Configure opens a new window that lets you set up the Keyboard, Joystick/Gamepad, System bios and sound, User Interface - choose Splash Screen on/off.
The Keyboard and Joystick/Gamepad screens have a lovely picture of the DS showing exactly where each button is, and what Key or Button has been assigned to it.
HyperDS is certainly the nicest-looking of the emus. It's a pity it doesn't do much.
I can post a picture if anyone is interested.
