Homebrew developers nervegas, dshadow, and the rest of the NES.app team have been pretty busy lately. In case you haven't heard yet, they just rolled out another update on their program which fixes some of the minor issues with the virtual control pad.

If you're not familiar with this application, it's essentially a NES emulator for the iPhone based on pNesX. The most recent update, NES.app v0.99.02, fixes the bug when sliding your finger from the virtual direction pad to the select or start buttons would cause it to keep registering movement.

In addition to this, the corners of the pad have been expanded, making the controller far more responsive than before. If you've been using a previous version, you may want to upgrade to the latest version for the fixes and improvements.

If you decide to do so, be sure to go over the Readme document included with the download package to avoid any problems with installation.
