PlayStation3 homebrew seems to be picking up some tempo. A Japanese coder recently released a NES emulator for the console using BD-J. Aside from being an emulator, the program also acts as a filer that displays certain kinds of images (PNG, GIF, JPG).
Check out our forums for more information on the program courtesy of Cooguy1212. The forum thread is linked below. Anyhow, here's a video of the homebrew in action, playing the classic of classics in video gaming, Super Mario Bros. Visit: QJ.NET PS3 Forums, PS3 BD-J NES Emu and Filer UPDATE: Here are instructions for how to install the homebrew, with instructions, thanks to Cooguy1212. Download link below.

Great stuff, seems we are picking up momentum, but is anything more possible outside of Java? I dream of the day.

well i guess the programs have to be re-written or so to run according to what its running on. plus controls would have to be mapped anyway...

» Sony's definately learned a thing or 2 since the PSP.
With the OtherOS feature and BD-J(unknowingly of course), Sony has successfully developed a homebrew-compatible console without being in jeopardy of pirating. (BD-ROM based games anyway)
Then again, there's always the problem of PSN downloadable games being cracked.

Wow,this is cool.And its just the start,too bad no sound,but im sure it will happen soon. Also note that the dpad only works in 4 way direction and not 8 way. So if your playing something like contra you cant aim diagonaly up or down,only left right up and down.Hope they fix that too.

this is awesome!!! the only problem i had had nothing to do with the actual emulator, i was searching for ROMs and it took a very long time because i guess quite recently ESA has cracked down on most of the ROM sites! so good luck finding ROMs, it's not easy.

Actually, this may very well be the limit of what can be done. Look at how it's implemented: the "popup menu" button, Square, and the confirm button, X, are the only buttons that can be translated into input. Unless keyboards get support in BD-J, more buttons are going to be assigned to 3-0 on the keypad. This environment is designed for interactive elements of movies, not software or games.
As for sound, I'm a bit curious as to how it will be implemented. My guess is a cache file generated by the java code, then streamed as the sound for the current "scene." Somebody should just do a PS3 Linux distro for the homebrew community, developing this sort of software on that instead.

» re: ...
Yeah unfortunately the limitations suck alot, and it's unlikely that will change. But developing for linux on the ps3 just isn't as exciting.
It's like installing linux on a mac and claiming you're developing for the mac. No you're not. You're developing for linux.
Anyway i'm pretty sure there's already emulators for linux.

Over $1000 in nextgen games, over $700 is a PS3 and accessories, over $2000 in HDTV and home theather... play your favorite NES games (even without sound) in a BDJ emulator is price less... There are somethings money can’t buy, For everything else there's Mastercard.

» I can has Printscreen Program?
While emulators are indeed really nice applications, what I long for is a decent screenshot application, without decompression and with nice navigational tools with it.
Any Java coder out there who is up to the challenge?
