DeSmuME Emulator - Nintendo DS

DeSmuME is a new Nintendo DS emulator by YopYop.
Emulates pretty well Meteos's demo but there is a small problem with the mouse. It is called DeSmuME which we guess comes from merging DS EMU and ME. Emulator is progressing very fast and many commercial NDS roms can be booted on it.

DeSmuME is up to it's third official release. This Nintendo DS emulator is starting to run (with alot of graphic glitches) a few commercial games with decent speed. More work has been put in correcting CARD_REG bugs in this version.

For the next release, yopyop will be working on graphic problems which should greatly help the playability of some games.
