Free nintendo software for linux

PictoChat sniffer allows you to spy live on PictoChat communications between Nintendo DS gaming consoles.

Requires a 802.11 device with support for monitor mode and Radiotap (tested only under FreeBSD with the p54u driver). Based upon GTK2 and libpcap.

DeSmuME project is a Nintendo DS emulator that can run both commercial games and homebrew applications.

The original author of DeSmuME is YopYop156. He has stopped working on it on the beginning of april 2006 and passed the torch to a new team of developers. You can now follow the progress of DeSmuME on this site.

Gamefu project was previously know as Kamefu. Please update your SVN checkout. No release with the new name yet.

Gamefu is a (old-school) game collection manager and emulator frontend. Gamefu stand for "Gaming All Machine Emulator Frontend for UNIX".

Supported systems(as 0.1):
-NES (Nintendo Entertainment System)
-SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)
-GB/GBC (Game Boy/Game Boy Color)
-GBA (Game Boy Advance)
-MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator)

Kamefu is the collection manager and emulator frontend for KDE. The direct inspiration for this application is the audio player amaroK. It supports emulators for systems like MAME, NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, Master System, Megadrive, PC Engine and more.
Planned features are:
Configuration for each emulator is handled by modules created with a script language like Python, Perl and Kommander. The collection manager can check if your games are valid via an XML database. New emulator configuration modules and databases can be downloaded with KHotNewStuff.
Supported systems(as 0.1):
- NES (Nintendo Entertainment System)
- SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)
- GB/GBC (Game Boy/Game Boy Color)
- GBA (Game Boy Advance)
- MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator)

Simple Wiimote Library for Linux (Libwiimote) is a simple C library for communicating with the Nintendo Wii Remote on a Linux system.
Even though the API strives to be minimal, it provides complete control over most features of the wiimote and nunchuk controllers.
Installation
Make sure you have BlueZ installed. Type make in the toplevel directory to build the library and sample applications. After the build is complete the library can be found in the lib directory.
Usage
In the test directory there are a couple of test applications that illustrate how to use this library.
Enhancements:
- Added support for the classic controller.

gbsplay emulates the sound hardware of the Nintendo Gameboy.
Also included is an XMMS input plugin and a tool to display information about a .GBS file.
gbsplay is written in C and runs on a variety of platforms: Linux, FreeBSD, Cygwin and MacOS X have been reported to work so far.
Enhancements:
- The sound routine now uses a bandwidth limited synthesizer, which results in truer emulation.
- Channel 2 was updated to interpolation and dc offset.
- The NAS output now honors a requested endianness.
- Several enhancements were made to the player code, including for 64-bit architectures, and the build process was improved and now has an easier ebuild implementation.

KWiideo is a video encoder for the mjpeg codec, which is supported by the Nintendo Wii.

You can use mencoder or ffmpeg as encoder. If you want to add subtitles you have to use mencoder, because ffmpeg cant add srt files to videos (maybe ffmpeg can do it, but didnt found a function for it).

You can set the quality of the output video using the quality slider. Available values 1 (best quality, largest files) to 30 (poor quality, small files). An other way to change the quality is setting the bitrate. High bitrates create better quality, but the filesize increase. It is not possible to use the quality slider and the bitrate setting function at the same time. Changing the bitrate seems not to work with mencoder and mjpeg as codec, you better take the quality slider when you use mencoder as encoder.

For splitting the video, you need avisplit. Comments are welcome.
