D_Skywalk, who is already known for his CPC emulator Pituka for the Gamepark GP32, is working on an CPC emulator for the Nintendo Wii. He already finished the graphic modes and added support for sound and the USB keyboard, but he wants that the emulator will look a bit more like a “Virtual Console” application, so he has some work to do.
Hopefully there will be a CPC emulator for the Wii in the future.

Krusty, Cloudstrife and PulkoMandy started a new project which is called CPC-DSK. Its intention is to bring all the development tools for Linux cross-development together in one SDK and hopefully speed up the development of new demos and games. You will find image viewers, image converter, tools for writing floppy disks, a port of Ramlaids CPC Tools and an upgraded version of the Caprice emulator in the SDK.
You can find the CPC-SDK on its project page at Google Code.
