<p>My favourite experience regarding Wii homebrew so far has to be NetBSD. I wanted to use my Wii as a computer for a while now, and NetBSD being available as an operating system you can install and get going on an SD card and a Wii with the HBC is definitely the highlights of my Wii homebrew experience. I don't use my Wii much at the moment, as I don't even have a monitor I can use for my Wii yet, but I have used it for a while on a TV and it was nice.</p><p>Networking is a bit hard, at least on the Wii however. I tried to get WiFi included in as a Wii image of NetBSD to burn, this was during my time on FreeBSD, and I just couldn't compile it. I was doing something weird where I would alternate between GCC and clang but that would have been a waste of time once it got to booting.</p><p>Other than that, it was nice writing a fetch program entirely written in C using vi and man pages to get by. It was a nice break from writing things without an LSP to help, although I still love using modern features many editors provide, obviously excluding AI, so I will stick with that. I also found that Lua existed on it which definitely helped whenever I didn't want to write C.</p><p>First *BSD post in a while, as I forgot to talk about the time I used NetBSD. I'll probably talk about Linux more at some point but I wanted to talk about *BSD a little again. Try NetBSD if you get the chance!</p><p><a href="/tags/netbsd/" rel="tag">#netbsd</a> <a href="/tags/homebrew/" rel="tag">#homebrew</a> <a href="/tags/wii/" rel="tag">#wii</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#tech</a> <a href="/tags/computers/" rel="tag">#computers</a> <a href="/tags/programming/" rel="tag">#programming</a></p>

<p>AmigaOS 4 Monthly Roundup – October 2025</p><p>Introduction</p><p>Hi everyone,</p><p>Thanks for visiting my <a href="http://oldschoolgameblog.com" rel="nofollow">blog</a>, and for checking out this new issue of the AmigaOS 4 Monthly Roundup!</p>My A1222+. Photo by Puni.<p>If you are new to this series (hi, and welcome!), it’s essentially a summary that covers the previous month’s news related to the AmigaOS 4 platform.</p><p>This month, October, has been jam-packed with events and news, almost too much to keep up with! News is spread on many channels, so there is a lot to keep track of, but that is part of the fun, and the reason they end up in a roundup like this. 😉</p><p>Anyway, October has been a FANTASTIC month for the AmigaOS 4 community, I dare to state that. It will be hard to top this for a while, I think!</p><p>Without further ado, let’s dive into what October was like in the world of AmigaOS 4!</p><p>Software News</p><p>First up is ReSrc4 from René W.

It supports skins, which means that you can change how the game looks in many ways!</p>Screenshot by Puni<p>In a field of stacked stones, your target is to eliminate groups of stones of the same color. Thereby, the other stones will fall down and form new groups. The game ends when no more groups can be eliminated.</p><p>The game works very well, and I enjoyed testing it. I recommend that you give it a try if you enjoy puzzle games like this!</p>Screenshot from an older version – By Puni<p>Version 35.31 of <a href="http://os4depot.net/?function=showfile&file=emulation/gamesystem/amiarcadia.lha" rel="nofollow">AmiArcadia</a> for AmigaOS 4, a Signetics-based machines emulator, has been released by James Jacobs.</p><p>According to the documentation, AmiArcadia supports the following systems:</p><p>Emerson Arcadia 2001 console family (Bandai, Emerson, Grandstand, Intervision, Leisure-Vision, Leonardo, MPT-03, Ormatu, Palladium, Poppy, Robdajet, Tele-Fever, Tempest, Tryom, Tunix, etc.) (c. 1982);<br>Interton VC 4000 console family (Acetronic, Cabel, Fountain, Hanimex, Interton, Prinztronic, Radofin, Rowtron, Soundic, Voltmace, Waddingtons, etc.) (c. 1978);<br>Elektor TV Games Computer (1979);<br>PIPBUG- and BINBUG-based machines (EA 77up2, EA 78up5, Signetics Adaptable Board Computer, Eurocard 2650, etc.) (1977-1978);<br>Signetics Instructor 50 trainer (1978);<br>Signetics TWIN minicomputer (1976);<br>Central Data 2650 computer (1977);<br>PHUNSY computer (c. 1980);<br>Ravensburger Selbstbaucomputer aka 2650 Minimal Computer trainer (1984);<br>Hofacker MIKIT 2650 trainer (1978);<br>Astro Wars, Galaxia, Laser Battle and Lazarian coin-ops by Zaccaria (1979-1981);<br>Malzak 1 and 2 coin-ops by Kitronix (c. 1981);<br>AY-3-8500/8550/8600-based Pong systems (Coleco Telstar Galaxy, Sheen TVG-201, etc.) (1976-1977);<br>VTech Type-right machine (1985)</p><p>It is packed with features, far too many to list here.

The original concept was created by Sinisrus, who worked on it in the years 2016 to 2020. Kimens from AmigaWave is now improving it further.</p><p>Pixy is a drawing program dedicated to pixel art and graphics with alpha channel transparency. It allows you to create several animations in a single project, and each image of each animation sequence contains its own layers. This makes it possible to work on all the animations of a character when creating video games, for example. The interface is intentionally inspired by Photoshop.</p><p>More information about Pixy, as well as a download, can be found here:</p><p><a href="https://os4depot.net/?function=showfile&file=graphics/edit/pixy.lha" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="os4depot.net/?function=showfile&file=graphics/edit/pixy.lha"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">os4depot.net/?function=showfil</span><span class="invisible">e&file=graphics/edit/pixy.lha</span></a></p><p>A new update to SDL3 is out, more precisely version 3.2.24.
