For all you who miss seeing Mario and Luigi slay dragons and save the Princess on your screens, here is the chance to relive that classic game of Mario Brothers. Homebrew developer dan369 has just released his creation—Lua PSP Mario, which can be played on your trusty game handhelds.

According to dan369, the features of this classic game are as follows:

• My own little animation function (taken from a mini – animation lib I made)
• Most of the classic animation is there (the walking, jumping etc. )
• Breakable blocks (brick)
• Solid blocks
• Question mark blocks (do change to solid if you collide no coins yet though)
• Jumping blocks (isn’t the same as in classic Mario with the spring though)
• Uses a Tile map system
• Has Gaps in the floor as-well like classic Mario games
• Has the scenery from classic Mario games (including clouds, bushes etc.)
• Better graphics (doesn’t use the classics Mario 8 bit gfx)

Although still in its demo stage, you can already enjoy these cool features reminiscent of the popular and well-loved game. But because this is not the official version yet, more tweaking need to be done with the homebrew. There will still be changes and added functions as soon as dan369 gets back to improving it.

This homebrew only includes level 1 of the original Mario Brothers for the NES so try to contain your excitement… and wait patiently for the official release.

In the past, owners of the Playstation Portable 2 and 3 would risk bricking their handheld consoles if they board it with CTF themes. But thank to Total_Noob’s unofficial version of Poison’s CXMB for Custom Firmware 5.03 Gen-A, PSP 2 and 3 users can now load CTF-based themes in their consoles and enjoy the different interfaces of a CTF theme.

Total_Noob also said that CTF 5.02 is already compatible with the PSPs 2 and 3 with this new unofficial version of CXMB custom firmware. But he failed to mention whether CTF 5.00 is also compatible with the two handhelds so for security’s sake, don’t try it out until we posted something here again from Total_Noob.

If you want to try out some more CTF themes than the ones posted here before, check out http://www.psp-hacks.com/category/61 for more theme downloads.

Holler below for your comments on this new CXM custom firmware.

Remember that a couple of weeks ago, I posted a download link for the Dayviewer plugin. Unfortunately, the earlier version of this version was created only for the Playstation Portable 1 and 2; meaning, this could not be installed in the latest version (at least before the PSP Go was released) of the popular console game, the PSP 3000.

Total_Noob, the homebrew’s creator, just released the Beta 3 version for the PSP 3000.  The Dayviewer plugin would allow PSP users to see the day of the week besides the time and date at the upper right corner of your PSP screens. I wouldn’t exactly know what to make of this homebrew, but I guess it makes for a very apt organizer application since it coherently puts into one frame the most basic of our daily lives—day, date and time.

The Dayviewer plugin beta 3 includes the following changes:

• Added in the config a function to view the day left or right
• Supported PSP 3000 with 5.03 GEN-A
• Added more support:

1. 3.80 M33
2. 3.90 M33
3. 4.01 M33
4. 5.03 GEN-A for HEN

• Fixed the slow bug

For PSP 3000 users, get a hold of this one. It’s not often that something so simple would be concocted by our homebrew creators as most of the time, we’re blinded by complicated plugins that are no use for us.

A new Lua game for the Playstation Portable called the Mac 10 was released recently by homebrew coder MrX256. This game is based on the Nintendo DS game Make 10: A Journey With Numbers. With the new Mac 10, you can play as a guy shooting Make 10 characters using an Ingram Mac 10.

The game allows you to receive 10 more bullets each time you kill a Make 10 character. The control settings are easy enough to understand: the navigation buttons / analog stick will control your movement. The cross button is for firing a single shot while the circle button ir for rapid fire succession.

Combine a bullet to a person to make multiple deaths and you’re good to go with the new Mac 10.

Intended for visual and active fighting scenes, the new Mac 10 is an innovative creation from its maker, finally bringing a game from the Nintendo DS to the PSP.

The popular Rubik’s cube, which can be practically bought from any local stores, is now created to be enjoyed by PSP users in their consoles. Rubik’s Cube v1.6, thanks to Exter, has finally been released for the Playstation Portable.

The Rubik’s Cube v1.6 is a 3D mechanical puzzle (very much like the actual Rubik’s cube) invented in Ernő Rubik. Each of the six faces are covered by 9 stickers, or multicolored cubes. There are six colors: white, red, blue, orange, green and yellow. A pivot mechanism would allow the cube to turn independently, mixing up the colors for the puzzle. As in the classic goal of Rubik’s cube, each face must end up having the same solid color.

Changes in Rubik’s Cube v1.6 includes:

• Move animation speed is now 40% faster.
• The colors now match the colors of a real rubik’s cube (parallel sides were previously inverted).
• Timer (starts when the cube is scrambled and stops when the cube is solved).

Get ready to challenge your friends and colleagues in a beat-my-time game with the Rubik’s Cube v1.6.

A new update for the Vice PSP has just been released by uberjack. The Commodore 64 emulator for the Playstation Portable features an option to select between PAL, NTSC or the old NTSC selection. There are also some more new features and options available in this latest release.

Here’s the changelog for Vice v2.1.2:

• Added 4:3 (fit screen height) stretch mode, visible in NTSC mode or when border is disabled
• Added border toggle – shows/hides the border surrounding the main display area
• Added PAL/NTSC/Old NTSC mode selection
• Added vertical blanking (VSync) support, only available in NTSC mode
• Bugfix: PRG loading now works
• Bugfix: “fit screen” stretch mode aspect ratio was incorrect; now fixed
• Minor fixes

If you really think about it, there isn’t much with this update but the option to choose between PAL and NTSC would be useful especially for our traveling PSP users. Some countries’ default video format is PAL, while others stay with NTSC. Provided that PAL has better resolution and quality, NTSC is much easier to use.

Please check the video format you need before installing this homebrew.

The Power Saver v0.0.8 for the Playstation Portable is probably one of the most indigenous creation made for the PSP. But when the version was released, there are some few bugs that caused problems to those who installed the PSP Power Saver v0.0.8.

Luckily, Warlock—the creator of the PSP Power Saver v0.0.8—made a few changes in the log and came up with the bug fixes for the Power Saver.

Changelog:

• Fixed a few bugs, having to do with the powersaver battling for ram against other prxs causing random shutoffs
• Psppacked it now it runs alot smoother

The Power Saver is a mighty tool for the PSP. Many PSP games run your battery dry after a few short hours, especially if you did not charge it properly (drain it before you plug it in). This homebrew does not only saves an unusual amount of charging time but it also gives us more hours to play Tekken, Need For Speed, or even Luxor and some quiz games.

Aside from the importance of the amount of memory you have in your Playstation Portable’s memory card perhaps, the next best thing (if not parallel to the memory space’s importance) is the PSP’s ability to recover unsaved games when and during electric malfunctions.

The Recover Flasher v1.60 by Hellcat is sure to beat all homebrew applications out there. No decent PSP user can ever say he / she does not need the Recover Flasher v1.60. If you’re into games as much as I am, or at least you’re easily pissed and forgetful of low batteries then, the Recover Flasher v1.60 is exactly the kind of thing you need.

Recover Flasher v1.60 features can be found here:

• Flash a fresh version of Custom Firmware M33, which can be useful for recovering a semi-bricked PSP, upgrading and/or downgrading between different CFW versions, etc.
• Make and restore NAND dumps
• Backup/restore your XMB themes, system settings, PSN activation and flash memory

Did I mention that all these can be done without Pandora? See the README file before going head-to-head with Recover Flasher v1.60.

There’s some Pingpong game on play here. First, the Defense Station Portable was released for the Playstation Portable (take note of the “portable”) then; a version was made for the iPhone. And now…. They are taking the Defense Station Portable back to the PSP.

Danzel’s originally crafted Defense Station Portable’s objective is simple enough: you set up shop in the area, cannons, laser towers, anti-air guns, etc. There is always an impending attack on your domain so you might as well be on defense (thus, the name Defense Station, see?). And once you take out each wave by the enemy, you’ll save some cash allowing you to buy or purchase more accessories or at the very least, upgrade your current weapons.

The interface, bless Danzel, is not much to boast about. It’s a sore to the eyes. The endless monochrome of greens does not leave much to be glad about. But overall, the game is reminiscent of those old Nintendo games I used to play on our Family Computer.

If you’re currently an iPhone user, download the game from the App Store. Enjoy!
