In Chiba, Japan, the JUMP Festa is (was?) in full force at the Makuhari Messe center. While the usual animation and manga debuts, there was video game previews by most japanese publishers, and Microsoft.

Also there were playable versions of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII for PSP and Secrets of Mana: Heroes of Mana and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates both for DS. In a private showing, Square-Enix showed off Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Final Fantasy Agito XIII, and many more games set for 2007. Heads are turning at "And something new coming in 2007" wording at the end of the showing.

Nintendo showed off already released Wii games and Jump Ultimate Star for DS. Also holding a tourney for it!

MS had Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Table Tennis, and the localized version of Viva Pinata! (Atsumare! Pinata in Japan land).

Capcom had Monster Hunter 2, Konami had 2 Desu(Death) Note games and the usual Yu-Gi-Oh games. Sony & Sega had Bleach for various systems. With Bandai-Namco having a bunch of useless One Peice, Naruto, Dragon Ball and 'Tales Of...' series.

Front End

11th December, 2006 - GameEx 7.09

 

Enhancements:

 

* Plugin system 1.1:

* Enhanced timer event

* Updated C# Template

* A Visual Basic .net template now included

* New Plugin included, Just for fun and the source code is included. Small tribute to Dig Dug

* Theres a new setting - cab control friendly. This makes navigation of the user interface easier when using sensitive joysticks and gamepads. With this turned on, controls have to be held down to navigate left and right. So it should resolve accidentily navigating outside the game list or menus. Something I should have done a long time ago. I am sure some people did not use GameEx in their cab because of that.

 

Optimisations

 

* Lots of optimisations in this release

* GameEx starts up quicker uses less memory and may run a little quicker

* The configuration application starts up and runs significantly faster

* The gameex install should finish installation quicker

 

Fixes

 

* Fixes English (Default) selection missing from install in recent versions

* Fixes to emulator caching. This should fix all issues with lists not refreshing and changes to settings not taking affect.
