NES on PS3 - Homebrew in Action

I think the PS3 community has been waiting since the PS3 came out for Homebrew to be available and possible on the PS3. That dream finally came true not too long ago and it seems like development of Homebrew PS3 titles really are picking up. The best of all, the Homebrew titles are super-easy to run so these applications are easily accessible to anyone.

The latest in the line of applications to be ported is a basic NES emulator. Although it has no sound at the moment, it's an awesome thing to behold Super Mario Brothers in widescreen on a 42" LCD TV.

iFonz 1.0.4

The popularity of the iPhone touch interface can't be overstated and as evident by all the clones out there, the ability to "touch" instead of clicking is a sure way to attract interest and a lot of users.

One of the interfaces that looks very similar to the iPhone interface is iFonz. Having followed and used this piece of software since v0.9, I have seen this application grow to the current version, 1.0.4. I have to say that with this version, iFonz has finally moved into the realm of real usability.

Many previous versions were slow but usable. Since skipping a few versions, I'm not sure where the change came but with this latest version, the application literally flies. All the speed issues that potentially could have been a hindrance in the past are not themselves a part of the past.

I'm looking forward to seeing what else lies in the future for this application but for now, it remains one of my favorite apps for my PPC6800.
