I released my new WonderSwan and WonderSwan Color emulator, if anyone's interested in giving it a spin :D

Excellent. Now it just needs a debugger to go from accurate WS(C) emulator to accurate WS(C) development tool. :P

Ooooooh, that would be so incredibly helpful. I've been fixing emulation bugs by logging instructions to a text file, and then injecting manual fprintf hooks in various places for each game with issues.

I'm sure trap15 would also love a debugger for working on Fire Lancer, which as far as I know, is the first serious homebrew game for the system. It should be a more popular target, though. 80186-compatible, so you can write in C, very fast CPU for the graphical capabilities of that era of hardware, and extremely simple design compared to all the quirkiness of Nintendo hardware. Of course, we'd need ten times the amount of documentation for it to be a really nice system to code for.

Well, I don't have any documentation to offer. I do own a Wonderwitch, so I've got the CD with the SDK with all the FreyaOS headers and whatnot, if that'd be of any help. I guess you've already got all the Wonderwitch stuff covered though.
