  • nds4droid release 45

    Got an e-mail recently from someone having problems running nds4droid on an NVIDIA SHIELD so I’ve made a couple of updates that should ease the pain for those of you using these newfangled console-like devices.

So, if you’re just here for nds4droid, bear […]

  • Happy Birthday and nds4droid 42

    Thursday (August 22nd) is the one year anniversary of the first release of nds4droid! In celebration I thought everyone might like another (coincidentally numbered?) release.
