ZX-81 is showing no sign of stopping. The prolific PSP homebrew developer has just released a new version of PSPHugo, a PSP port of the Hu-Go NEC PC Engine emulator.

This release brings PSPHugo up to version 1.03. Here's what's new:

• Improve global emulation speed
• ISO file support but sound audio track are ignored
• Screen size 320x240 is now supported (required for games such as R-Type)
• Add two new sound engines : mono (fast 22K or 44K) and stereo (accurate 22K or 44K).
• You may have to reset the game when you change between mono and stereo, and save states may not work properly. (few games are now full speed using audio mono 22K at 222Mhz)
• Zip rom files are now decompressed in memory (much faster !)
• Bug fix with D-pad (didn't work properly in previous versions)

Don't forget to read the readme file included in the bundle for more information. The source code is also available below. Check the Copying.txt file if you want to use it.
