One of my co-workers has had a side mini-project for a bit on creating a 
re-make for Paradroid on PocketPC2003.

Wonder when that'll be done.

Jumpman under Construction is something I was recently pointed to. A port for 
Win32, etc. Haven't played it yet, but it's on my laptop.

DTV review - albeit you can't always put the right set of games on there for 
EVERYONE, and there's licensing issues, etc. etc... Hard Hat Mack would have 
been one of my requests. Sadly MULE wouldn't have worked for one joystick. The 
only issue I've actually had with the DTV is the physical joystick itself. The 
direction handling is too fussy to make certain games (like Paradroid) 
playable. I love playing Temple of Apshai, but again the joystick directions 
get all messed up if you're slightly off.

CDTV issues - well, I'm a little annoyed. I got the CDTV unit home from the 
Toronto show in December and the main controller powers up, but doesn't work 
with the main unit via RF at all. Anyone able to help me/direct me on a 
solution?
