The guys over at out of print archive have released a new magazine digitalized for reading now and in the future, this magazine is for the Early Sega Consoles:
Originally released here at the start of 2015, issue 10 of Sega Pro just received the remaster treatment and thus, has never looked better. This issue dates back to the summer of 1992 and therefor has quite a bit of Game Gear content to keep you busy during that long vacation.
We found a lot of great stuff so it was hard to pick only four preview articles, so we ended up with eight instead. We have an abundance of Game Gear content up as a preview for this issue, so lets jump right in and take a look at the reviews for Prince of Persia, Klax, Popils and last but not least Marble Madness, all of which are for the Sega Game Gear.
Then we have a look at Batman for the Mega Drive, followed by the Friday the 13th inspired game Splatterhouse II, also for the Sega Mega Drive.

The guys over at out of print archive have released a new magazine digitalized for reading now and in the future, this magazine is for the Sega Saturn:
Due to a couple of setbacks it took a bit longer to get our next issue out. But we're slowly getting back on track and thus are happy to present you with the remastered version of issue number 4 of the Official Sega Saturn Magazine from February 1996.
We start our preview with perhaps the finest railgun shooter ever created: Panzer Dragoon Zwei, and move on to a horizontal 2D shooting game from another quality pedigree: Darius Gaiden by Taito.
After these two big hitters we look at reviews for two lesser known games for the system: the Sega arcade conversion Wing Arms and the flipper sim True Pinball.

Heres the latest release of an emulator that supports lots of Nintendo and Sega Systems:
higan is a multi-system emulator that began development on 2014-10-14.
It currently supports the following systems:
• Nintendo Famicom
• Nintendo Super Famicom
• Nintendo Game Boy
• Nintendo Game Boy Color
• Nintendo Game Boy Advance
• Sega Master System
• Sega Game Gear
• Sega Mega Drive
• NEC PC Engine
• NEC SuperGrafx
• Bandai WonderSwan
• Bandai WonderSwan Color
higan also supports the following Super Famicom subsystems:
• Super Game Boy
• BS-X Satellaview
• Sufami Turbo
Minimum System Requirements:
• Intel Core-series processor
• OpenGL 3.2-capable graphics card
• Windows XP+, OS X 10.7+, Linux 3.2+ or FreeBSD 10.0+
With this release, PC Engine, Master System, Game Gear, Mega Drive and the newly added SuperGrafx support are now quite usable! They're far from the best emulators for these systems, but with many bugfixes, full sound emulation, and save state support ... many games are now fully playable with decent accuracy.
The Game Boy Advance emulation is also now substantially improved with vastly improved sound quality and a new dot-based PPU renderer. With that change, every single component in higan is now cycle-based. Regrettably, these changes do carry a ~20% performance penalty compared to GBA emulation in v102.
Changelog: (2017-06-21)
• added SuperGrafx emulation
• improved audio band-pass filtering for all emulated systems
• screen rotation is now a hotkey; automatically rotates control bindings
• screen rotation now supported on the Game Boy Advance as well (used by a small number of games)
• massive improvements to Mega Drive emulation
• massive code cleanups and rewrites to many CPU emulation cores (MOS6502, WDC65816, SPC700, etc)
• Famicom, Master System, Mega Drive: added PAL emulation support
• PC Engine, SuperGrafx, Master System, Game Gear, Mega Drive: added save state support
• PC Engine, SuperGrafx: added PSG sound emulation
• Master System, Game Gear: added PSG sound emulation
• Mega Drive: added Z80 APU emulation [with help from Cydrak]
• Mega Drive: added PSG sound emulation
• Mega Drive: added YM2612 sound emulation [Cydrak]
• Super Famicom: fixed Super Game Boy emulation
• PC Engine: added save RAM support (using per-game PCE-CD backup RAM)
• Game Boy Advance: substantial improvements to audio emulation quality
• Game Boy Advance: convert scanline-based PPU renderer to a dot-based renderer
• Game Boy Advance: properly initialize CPU state (fixes Classic NES Series games)
• Game Boy Advance: MUL timing corrected [Jonas Quinn]
• Mega Drive: emulate special mappers for Phantasy Star IV, Super Street Fighter II, etc.
• Super Famicom: use darker luma for INIDISP=0 (large improvement to Final Fantasy III opening)
• Super Famicom: fixed bugs in SMP OR1,AND1 instructions
• cheat code database regrettably removed from official releases; will be made available separately
This changelog is a summary of major changes. For a detailed list of all changes, which spans several pages, please see the higan Gitlab repository.

GDEMU is an SD card based replacement for the optical drive in Dreamcast console. Heres the latest news from the developer:
Not much to report, other than GDEMU orders <del dateTime="2017-07-22T11:44:21+00:00">will open in a moment</del> are closed again – more will come though – so here’s a couple of random photos. I planned on making a simple “guess what it is” quiz, maybe with prizes, but it’s too easy and I’m too lazy to rename the files

In my ever state of catching up with news heres one sourced from dcemulation:
Hello my friends, it has been a long time!
As you all know, my project "In The Line Of Fire" was not successful on Kickstarter.
What you all may not be aware of is the circumstances behind the campaign, and the state of affairs during that time.
I began this project as a labor of love, with no deadline in mind; I simply wanted to create the very best Dreamcast game the homebrew community has ever seen.
When Wilson, the 3D artist and myself began working together, I was not fully aware of how desperate his financial situation was.
Truth be told, if I had really known his situation from the beginning, I would not have got involved with him at that point in time.
He was and is a very talented artist, but he was struggling financially, and that is a very dangerous thing when I consider my situation at that time.
I have never relied on "In The Line Of Fire" for financial reasons, but for him, this project was life or death.
Because of his financial situation, Wilson forced me to launch the KS campaign, even though I pleaded with him to wait until spring of this year to make more progress and establish more media presence.
As things turned out, I was very rushed and had little time to dedicate to the actual KS campaign.
When the project failed, Wilson abandoned the project, leaving me with no choice but to move on.
That said, this projects failure is nobody's fault but mine, and that has been a very hard thing for me to accept.
Even though the campaign failed, things did not turn out poorly for me; I was contacted with a job offer that I could not turn down.
Now, I am currently working as an IT Administrator, coding for multiple platforms, and making much more money than I was last year.
As a result, I have no time to continue focusing on development on the Dreamcast.
I have learned a lot in my time here, and I will always cherish the time spent coding for Dreamcast, and I will always appreciate the community here.
With that said, today I am releasing the last alpha build of "In The Line Of Fire" to the public, mainly for those who supported our campaign.
This build is from January 2nd of this year; the last time I wrote code for the Dreamcast.
