Great news, i tried two games: Mr. Driller - ingame, major graphics glitches, around 16 fps
Bubble Bobble Revolution - ingame, around 25 fps, i don't see any glitches in game, but freeze if you try play classic mode
Yeah, a lot of games seem to boot and actually run (with various small or big problems of course). Unfortunately if you wish to play a game that requires to touch the screen forget it. As stated in the readme, it's "hacked" to semi-working status, I couldn't even get homebrew software that use the touchscreen to work. However, the progress of the emulator is indeed impressive so far.
--------------------
I'm not insane. YOU are insane... You are all insane!
About the homebrew issue, it's part of the rewriting of the code (will be fixed in the next release, with the introduction of the new control code, which should allow the touch to FINALLY work once and for all) and there are some crude multiple settings in the Options tab-
Most of the games do run, as we focused mainly on 2D and a primitive palette management plugin for the 3D counterpart, and the missing layers/crashes/black screens are on most cases a game's attempt to use the 3D capabilities of the DS system. Just like Trauma Center.
Anyway, 3D is only the last stage of the project, for now, we have to get that damn Polarium to work - aka fix the touchscreen without becoming mad.
And before I forget, I'm sure you want to check the site again...

Fantastic!! Half the games I tried, at the very least booted past the black screen I always hate having to see. The best of them was Mario & Luigi 2 - Partners in Time, which played right up until the first battle scene.
Now I am no emu wiz, but I think most of the graphics problems are with the Sprites. Two notable things are that they don't display properly and that the Palettes are wrong (ie Baby Mario was blue). But iDeaS is still miles ahead of every other emu out there!!
Provided it is okay, I would like to start a Compatibility List Forums post, so the number of working games and their progress can be collected. I really can't wait to see DS Games working at a point where they are reasonably playable, especially my favourites!! Great Work So Far!!
There was a compatibility list, once, but it was closed down - along with the entire iDeaS board - for the unbearable amount of n00b questions being asked.
