dualSwanLiraNuna has just released v1.2.1 of his WonderSwan emulator dualSwan. According to him this will be the final release of this emulator.

This version of dualSwan comes with added support for M3SD and SCSD. Although these features are untested LiraNuna says, "it should work, as chishm’s FAT library does." Try it out for yourself. There are some good games released for the WonderSwan and the WonderSwan Color, including the first installment of Front Mission, a series of Super Robot Taisen games, and Guilty Gear Petit.

The change log is as follows:
  • Fixed window mode 0×20
  • Added support for M3SD and SCSD
  • Source: Moved menu handlers to menu.c/h
LiraNuna has also announced on his DS Development website that he's quitting DS development and will be working on PSP homebrews next. PSP fans will have a lot to look forward to.

DualSwanv12ScreenLiraNuna, one of the DS's greatest developers, has released a new version of his WonderSwan emulator. Wonderswan was once a competitor of the original Gameboy in Japan, and showcased graphics of equal quality. The WonderSwan came originally without color, but a color version was introduced a year after the WonderSwan release.  LiraNuna has released this great handheld onto another great handheld, the Nintendo DS.

The most recent version to this date of the emulator does not feature sound, and can not play games larger than 4mb. Although, from the previous release, LiraNuna is proud to say that some games are running full speed! LiraNuna is still hard at work to improve the emulation, and has already placed a lot of time into the development process of this! Here's the official change log for this version (v1.2) -
  • Added support for WS mono games
  • Added Windows (Particially working)
  • Added ROM menu to boot ROMs from CF/SD
  • Fixed a bug in sprites emulation

LiraNuna has released his second emulator for the Nintendo DS, this time in the form of WonderSwan. The WonderSwan is a Japanese handheld game console released by Bandai in 1999. It was developed by the late Gunpei Yokoi's company Koto and Bandai. The WonderSwan was made to compete with the Neo Geo Pocket Color and the market leader Nintendo's Game Boy Color. It was later replaced by the WonderSwan Color. Changes in this release include:

- Added GBFS ROM Loading
– Minor speed boost

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

It's a good thing developers never tire of coming up with good stuff. LiraNuna, developer of the game Tales of Dagur, has posted the progress of the latest development of his WonderSwan emulator called the dualSwan.

The WonderSwan is a Japanese handheld game console released in 1999 by Bandai. With the dualSwan, you'll be able to play WonderSwan games in your Nintendo DS. How cool is that?

Here are some screenshots to show the progress of this emulator. You can see that the FPS on the screenshots are close to that of the original results on the HW. Dualis refuses to emulate full speed so another ~6FPS had to be added to get the original results on the real HW.

According to the developer, low FPS on games occur because of the poor core implementation of NEC CPU. But he says not to worry as this will be fixed soon.

LiraNunaLiraNuna, maker of WonDerS v1.1 which allows you to play WonderSwan games in your Nintendo DS, has said before that he's in the process of rewriting WonDerS and gave us some screenshots to tease us on its upcoming release.

As of late, he has posted yet another teaser for us on his site. He is going to release two new special builds - one without any speed limits and the other with a 60FPS limit - that emulates the Japanese handheld that was quite popular back in 1999.
