The only WonderWitch emu known as of now, this emulates the home development kit system for the Japanese WonderSwan Color. Several programming contests were organized, and some winning games were published in cartridge form and sold to the public, like Judgement Silversword -Rebirth Edition- and Dicing Knight Period. Those, such as the Wondermagic Color, are indeed much rarer for the WonderSwan than for the Neo Geo Pocket for instance, although the latter machine sold in much lower numbers. The WonderWitch is, for the purposes of amateur developers, a legal alternative to unofficial flash carts popular on other consoles. The software consists in a C compiler, tools for converting data files, and a utility for transmitting files to and from the console. Additional cartridges were also available to buy separately. The cartridge works with standard WonderSwan consoles, and can contain several games, depending on their size. The kit includes Windows software for developing for the WonderSwan, as well as a link cable that plugs into a DE9 serial port, and a special rewritable 128 Mbit cartridge. Everything related to the WonderWitch was handled by Qute. It was available only by mail order to Japanese residents. The WonderWitch is an official hobbyist development kit for Bandai's WonderSwan console.
