ZX-81 has created a new version of the Colecovision Emulator for PSP, called PSPColem v1.0.3

New features include:

- Add Load/Save/Del states menu
- Add .col as valid extention for rom files
- Emulator configuration  now loads properly on startup.

Instructions are included in the README.txt file, as well as sources. The package is under the GNU public licence, so the developer asks users to read COPYING.txt file for more information. Barring the discovery of major bugs, this version should be the last.

I was a ColecoVision lover as a child, in fact, I still have my ColecoVision console in my closet, so this is really exciting for me! Venture, The Smurfs and Zaxxon were my favorite ColecoVision games when I was 10 years old. I totally can't wait to try this new emulator on my PSP!

ColEm is a great ColecoVision emulator that was written by Marat Fayzullin. He designed it for Unix type systems so it had to be ported to work on the PSP. ZX-81 completed the port to PSP and he did the porting using Linux - and thus PSPColem was born! The emulator runs on PSP firmware 2.5 using the eLoader.


According to his site the emulator should also work on other PSP firmwares and he has integrated a 1.5 binary version (KXploit). While this is still a beta version and has some work needed in the future (including saves and sound support) it is very exciting to see that someone has decided to work on getting the ColecoVision emulator working on PSP. Source is included and the release is GPled. Read the included text file for instructions and more information about the release.
