Here's an interesting new homebrew app from developer Maximus32.

Contrary to the initial idea its name gives, Bricks-OS is an operating system for several platforms and allows them to share resources. Here are the release notes:

Hello Everyone,

I would like to announce the Bricks-OS project. Bricks-OS is an operating system for game consoles.

The list of currently supported game consoles:

- Gameboy Advance

- Nintendo DS

- GameCube

- Playstation2

- Playstation Portable

- Wii - i386 PC (not really a Game Console :-)

The list of current features include:

- Preemptive multitasking (even on the GBA and NDS)

- Message passing

- Hardware OpenGL implementation (on some consoles)

- Software OpenGL implementation (for all consoles not supporting hardware 3D)

It doesn't do much right now, but the concept is interesting and it could go far. Hopefully we'll see more of this in the future.
