Classic Console Development - ready to use dev kits!

Post by smccd »

Hello,

Over the past year, I have been gathering dev kits for classic consoles from around the net, fixing them up to get them in a working state, and then wrote small game samples for each. The samples will compile out of the box.
You can find them at

I am currently up to 14 different systems.

Enjoy!

Nifty stuff! I wish I had time to hack around this but sadly, I don't.

You should definitely check out the Gen Poker project page at http://sebastianmihai.com/main.php?t=23
It is a complete game, and a great starting point for your own Genesis game! :)

I have just added a new homebrew game on Neo Geo Pocket Color (NGPC). The game is called NGCollector, and it simulates the life of a Neo Geo collector! :)

This is very cool, I often download SDk's for old console to find that they are incomplete and take forever to actually get running. Thanks for putting all this together.

This is cool. Have you been able to port them to mac osx, future chance? There is one app that may work well with this besides bootcamp, I'll see what happens.

Hey guys,

While I normally develop for older consoles, this time I came up with a trading game on Windows (using XNA). The game is called Gold of the Kingdoms, and in it, the player attempts to make a profit and ultimately gain influence over all kingdoms of the realm. Random events can occur, and the caravan can be upgraded.

You can find it here:
