Well, you can download the source from here and it's based on SDL, so I don't see why not

Vader249 was working on porting it. He finally got it to compile, but it only gave him a black screen. As far as I know he dropped the project and left the wiibrew scene after that (shame too, he was one of our better and very helpful coders).

:S i see... Because i have seen good ideas on the things that are already done on wiibrew, for example the keyboard on the quake, and the wiimote as mouse on the scummvm... that things should help on the DOS screen once (thats the tricky part of course...) u have the thing on the wii working... im going to check what can i do... :)
