So the Pokémon Mini (legaly "mini" but eh..) is a handheld system made by Nintendo with almost entirely proprietary parts, including the CPU, making it what I'm sure was quite a hurdle to reverse.
Someone at some point in time (DaveX, DarkFader, and JustBurn I believe did a lot of it) cracked the majority of how this little bugger works. I don't know much about how to do stuff like that - although I'm aiming to learn - but thanks to them we got what I do know about, the software. DaveX built the MindX assembler, which I haven't used, and DarkFader built pmas (Pika Macro ASsembler); which can be found in tools and on the PokeMe website (along with the MindX assembler).
Anyways thanks to their efforts, Lupin's tutorial, and a little creativity I was able to rap out the code for my first ROM and over time learn a lot more about the system.
I currently only have made one complete game, and it's not as complete as I'd like it to be.

Team PokeMe went to Breakpoint '05 with this video and their findings on the system before I started deving here. :)
Official Games
There were a total of ten different game releases, in a total of six (I think..) different countries. Not every country had every game though, only Japan had all ten. USA, for instance, only got four. Luckily and intellegently the system is not region protected, although the BIOSes for the system may be different from each country; at least between Japanese and English.
I think there were AU releases, but I'm not sure, so am omitting them.
I know there were Canada releases but I think they're the same as the USA releases, so am omitting them.
I know Europe is a continent, the EU carts were the English language European releases.
Here are the official games:

My games
As I mentioned before, I can make software for this system; and here it is! Not much to speak of yet. One game and a demo. I've got a book reader in the works kinda, but I gotta rebuild it. :(
Pongémon (Pong clone). Only release because I lost my source code. :(
Pokémon Orange Demo ver0.54 - Messaging system, signs, and teleporting added. In the middle of above hero sprites.

Translations
We're trying to get DarkFader to translate the text of Sodate so we can make an English version of it, as he's the only one of us that knows any Japanese.
Hopefully this will spread to the other four that are not in English, too. :)

Tools

PMAS - PM assembler, my weapon of choice.
RomTool - View ROM information and add or delete a BIOS.
bmp2bin - Convert a bmp to usable data (usually for a background) in a PM ROM, also included is a BATCH file I wrote that converts all bmp files in the directory. Makes it faster.

Emulators/Debuggers
Minimon, latest official release.
Now Minimon is imperfect and the author has dropped out of working on the PM, and it is open source; so I want to fix it so sound works (I believe it's in the timers, so it may just be fixing those) and adding IR support, both as an online thing (connect to an IP running Minimon and accepting IR input) and through a computer's IR port. I currently don't have an IR port, though. :( A man can dream, though, a man can dream.
