Its been less than two months, yet there's already a new release of Yabause. Today, the Yabause team released Yabause 0.8.6 for all platforms that it supports . This version is mostly a bugfix release.
As for fixes, there was a change to the 68k core to make it so that the emulator doesn't crash if for some reason a game jumps to an invalid address. There were also a few fixes in the VDP1 core, most importantly however was a fix for a bug that caused local coordinate commands not to be executed.
Anyway, you can download it from here.

Some fantastic news about a new and free Sega Saturn Game released:
SPREAD THE WORD

via insertcredit
Return Fire originally came out for the 3DO, and was a bit like Mass Destruction, but with a bit more flag capturing. Actually a lot more. Quite a decent game, it was, and a Saturn version was completed, then scrapped. This is sort of the "lost" Saturn game, you might say, though there are a few more. Here's why the project was never completed, according to the developer, Prolific.
"The game was finished for the Sega Saturn. At about that time, Hitachi made a Saturn system that was not 100% compatible with Sega's, and the game did not run correctly on it.
We were asked to make the changes which would allow it to run on the "HI-Saturn," and after a bit of back-and-forth, we even received a loaner HI-Saturn test system. But, did not do this work because the project was stopped because the publisher did not believe the Saturn was going to make it. The Saturn version of Return Fire was therefore never manufactured on "protected" CDs and therefore never released."
But the game was finished, and through a lot of legwork, Mr. Saturn at Sega-Saturn.net has released it for download. You must have a chipped saturn (or emulator I suppose) in order to make this work. The game ships with a crapload of languages: english, german, french, spanish, portuguese, japanese, italian, korean, arabic, and russian. There's also full cover art and documentation if you want to make an actual retail-like version. Very cool news for Saturn fans - a new, full game in 2007!

Could this be the way to get more Sega Saturn and Dreamcast Unreleased Games gave to Public Domain.

The GameTap Online games service continues to add new titles each week, including the classic Wing Commander and Bug, which was a Sega Saturn title. Games added this week include:
Wing Commander: Electronic Arts’ sci-fi strategy game enlists players in an outer space aerial war to defend Earth from the marauding Kilrathi race. Wing Commander was a revolutionary game when it was released, blazing trails in the realms of 3D gaming, cinematic storytelling and the popularization of sound cards and game soundtracks, so check out the game that started it all!
Warlords Battlecry III: This real time strategy game from Enlight Interactive Inc. further expands the Battlecry tradition of featuring persistent RPG-like fantasy heroes with its retinue of loyal followers fighting massive battles in the Warlords' world of Etheria. As a true sequel to Warlords Battlecry I & II - both of which are also available on GameTap - it features many familiar races and troop-types, while also adding new ones into the mix.
Bug!: Originally appearing on GameTap last week in the form of an “Easter Egg,” this SEGA action title ushers in GameTap’s latest console – the SEGA Saturn. Bug is a big movie star whose film set friends are kidnapped, so he’s off to save the day in a hopping-and-bopping platform-jumping adventure. With some of the greatest Saturn titles on the horizon, this is big news for fans of classic console gaming.
Doki Doki Penguin Land: GameTap unveils SEGA’s Doki Doki Penguin Land, its latest addition to its library of games for the rare SG-1000 Japanese-only 8-bit console. As a penguin in the harsh arctic wasteland, it's your job to outsmart the burly polar bears and roll your egg to the safety of your underground home.
ThinkTanks: GarageGames’ ThinkTanks is a fast-paced tank combat game where only the smartest tanks survive in a deadly arena. The backstory is that the Terranians have been harvesting human brains and popping them into armored vehicles, all to create a game show where these captive Think Tanks do battle for the amusement of wicked alien overlords. You're one of the Think Tanks, but you've escaped! Now it's up to you to free your fellow brains and destroy the enemy.

New version of the Saturn emulator for PC.
A new version was put up, although it has not been checked much.
SSF Ver0.08 alpha R8
LFO processing of the SCSP was updated.
Dynamic Recompilation processing of the SCU DSP was implemented.
The Sleep command/instruction of the SH2 was updated.
Dynamic Recompilation processing of the SH2 was updated.
Since the SCU-DSP was greatly accelerable, the DSP Thread option was deleted.
Also, the synchronous processing of the main threads had to be removed...
Save State data version was updated.
Sound recording was enabled.
Key assignment is F9 for Sound Recording.
Since the sound recording is performed by a low piority conservation thread,
it may not work in case it lacks a surplus of machine power.
When recording sound, please do not enable Scanline Base Timing and the Always Running options.
Furthermore, sine resampling processing of PCM is due to be changed in the near future,
sound quality may change delicately soon.

New update of the Saturn emulator for PC. What the author said:
A new version was put up, although not many changes have been made since I don't have the time.
SSF Ver0.08 alpha R5
Subcode Q processing of the CD Block was updated.
The battle progress explanation screen in Gungriffon and the demo screen of Gungriffon 2 have stopped skipping.
Window processing of the VDP2 was updated.
Memory Access Wait processing was updated.
Mission Stick, Multi-controller and Mahjong Panel inputs have been hooked up.
Key arrangement (for the Mahjong Panel):
A-N = A-N keys
Kan = Ctrl key
Pon = Alt key
Chi = Space key
Riichi/Reach = Shift key
Ron = Z key
An option for the (SCU) DSP to be processed in an exclusive thread has been added.
However, since synchronization with the SH2 will become difficult, software with high (cpu) load may fail to work.
CPU usage for dual and multi-core enviroments has been set up.
Exclusive threads processed by the CPUS:
for 2 cpus (Dual Core):
CPU0 - Main Thread
CPU1 - VDP2 Draw Thread
for 4 cpus (Quad Core)
CPU0 - Main Thread
CPU1 - VDP2 Draw Thread
CPU2 - VDP1 Draw Thread
CPU3 - DSP Thread
Save State data version was updated.
Savestates from previous versions cannot be used. Since it's becoming difficult to maintain compatibility...
From now on, if save state data is changed, (backwards) compatibility shall not be taken into consideration.
Although analog input has been hooked up, it has not been checked much.
Since I only have a XBOX360 controller...

Well, the YouTube videos don't look as good as the original videos that I uploaded. Furthermore, I can't verify if the sound is still there.
Recording method was:
1. recorded with DVD-recorder
2. cutting and re-coding with VirtualDub
3. upload to YouTube (re-coded there, again)
