It's a bit late for wishing you a merry christmas, so I will wish you a happy good year 2008 instead, and much CPCing.

CPCGamesCD is a live CD with emulators and the Amstrad games collection of NVG by MiguelSky. It has been updated :

• Frontend CPC Loader v2.0 beta by TroelsK and a lot of new features
• NVG games update 06/11/2007
• Snap-Pack with ALL the captures (3.491)
• New version of CPCE (1.85) and WinApe (2.0a15) emulators
• Improved categorization
• Apps (utils/cpc) and Cartridg folders of NVG are now included

PSPCAP32 par ZX-81 has again been updated, with now support for the green screen of the Amstrad CPC.

CPC Mania has converted Magical Drop for Amstrad CPC, based on a 1995 Data East arcade game.

Caprice32 PSP and PSPCAP32 were updated, with a much better speed for PSPCAP32.

After CPCPSP (not any more supported), a new port of Caprice32 for the PSP : CAPRICE32 PSP. But for PSP you already have the port from ZX81 : PSPCAP 32.

Blassic is a basic language interpreter for windows, linux and Yopy PDA. It can interpret Amstrad CPC basic, I didnt try it though.

CPCE v1.85 fixes a serious bug in the Symbiface 2 IDE (reported by Jarek Adamski), allows disabling the tape speedup if CPCE does it wrong (for example with "Balloonacy") and the Win32 version is a bit smarter now to handle ZIP archives.

A new version of the Amstrad CPC emulator CrocoDS for the Nintendo DS is out.

Kevin Thacker has made a conversion of Balloonacy, a C64 game. The complet game will be sold by Cronosoft . You can donwload a démo of the game for tape and disk.
