MPlayer CE is an unofficial port of the very popular multimedia player for various platforms including Windows and Linux.

It actually supports a huge range of formats and can playback media from DVDs, SD Cards, USB drives and over your local area network using Samba (SMB) shares. MPlayer CE also allows you to listen to radio streams over the Internet and watch YouTube.

Desert Bus 1.03

by tueidj
The aim of Desert Bus is to drive from Tucson, Arizona to Las Vegas, Nevada. The full trip is 360 miles long, which must be completed without stopping. The bus can only reach 45 miles an hour and pulls to the right ever so slightly. The only things you're likely to see while on the road (besides the desert floras) are a few scattered bus stops, which you can stop at and open the door of the bus. Note that you probably won't find anyone waiting (it's the desert after all). Driving off with the door open is not allowed as it would be a safety violation.

CHANGELOG v1.03
===============
-change the speed of the desert dirt because people thought the road was floating
air freshener is more realistic
-add tow truck sound effects
-avoid wiiuse crash when a second controller connects
