2013 was a year full of promises for the Pandora – there was a plethora of excellent software releases (including Drastic, for one), and a lot of activity all around. While 2014 was very much under the sign of the upcoming Pyra, things have nevertheless progressed nicely on Pandora as well. Let’s come back on some major events and releases.
Here’s a long overdue update for this month’s C4A compo ! This month’s games may not be appropriate for every gamer out there, but that did not prevent Asmo and Matti from fighting fiercely for the top scores.

As you may have heard, the final 1.71 firmware is out. Since there were issues with the 1.70 release it was pulled out, and now a fresh release fixes the last bugs in the image.

While this is certainly sad, it’s quite understandable as we move to a new hardware base in 2015 with the Pyra (while no clear schedule has been announced yet). Here’s a guide for a full clean reflash on 1.71.
Last month of the year… and 3 difficult games to compete on to keep you playing until New Year’s eve! This time we have Not Tetris, Super Methane Bros, and Puzzle Tube.
I am a couple of days late for the results of November – sorry about the delay, especially since the competition was raging till the very last days. The piece of news this time is that we have a draw at the top, and that’s a first.
