I'm sure everyone has played Commander Keen at some time. GPF has ported it to the Sega Dreamcast. Here's what he had to say:

Information

 

This is a port of CloneKeen for the Sega Dreamcast.

 

CloneKeen is an almost almost complete open-source clone of

the old classic DOS game, Commander Keen: Invasion of the

Vorticons by ID Software. CloneKeen requires the original game

data files to work. You can play all three episodes of the game.

 

CloneKeen currently runs under win32, with SDL, and

under Linux/X11, with SDL.

 

and now the Dreamcast

1.12.7.2 - 25 Jan 2006

- Fixed crash-bug in C++ 65C02 emu code for opcode $7C : JMP (ABS,X)

- Updated help file (by Brian Broker)

- Added ability to use Shift+Insert to paste from clipboard during emulation

- Added buttons to Config->Sound tab to select Mockingboard (s4 & s5), Phasor (s4) or none

- Removed keyboard buffer from Config->Input (this was redundant from 1.12.7.0)

- Fixed speaker click (eg. when selecting disk image)

- Added check to prevent loading old & incompatible 6502 DLLs (caused random 6502 crashes to monitor)

- Added support for AE's RAMWorks III, which adds up to 8MB (cmd-line switch only):

 . -r   : where #pages = [1..127], each page is 64KB.

 

 

Restrictions:

- NB. The following aren't saved out to the save-state file yet:

 . Phasor card  (only the Mockingboards are)

 . RAMWorks card

It is official: the RELEASE DATE, after TEN FLIPPING YEARS, is finally set in stone by the only man who can say so, Shigesato Itoi. As you can see on the link above there is the date of the release of Mother 3. We are finally getting our game, in one way. You bet our rumps we are gonna get this game in America even if we have to get NoA's attention by any means!

 

This is GREAT news because Mother 3 has NEVER had a firm date before. A great day to celebrate the affirmation of the series. AMEN!

 

The following is the relevant section of Itoi-san's recent post on his website (translation by NattyBumppo):

 

Mother 3's release date has been set. It will be April 20th, 2006 (Thursday). At least it's spring. It'll go on sale before the start of Golden Week. We'll be doing an official announcement pretty soon, but this is the "final" date. Once the release date is set, there are no more additions of new specs or anything like that. We'll no longer be able to fiddle around with anything in the game, unless it's something especially important. It makes me a little sad, but I can't be selfish. Since it's GameBoy Advance software, that naturally means that you'll also be able to play it on the Nintendo DS that everyone's so crazy about these days.

YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!

NeoGeo CD

Not strictly MAME work but I thought I’d take a crack at emulating the NeoCD system (probably for MESS) using the MAME NeoGeo driver and some information from ElSemi as the basis of the work.

 

So far I’ve hooked up some basic code to allow it to write the C data on the fly and boot the BIOS.
