Console Grab changelog

v1.2 · Jul 14, 2007

The original Console Grab v1.0 gives you control of a giant hand which you use to grab consoles and handhelds for points. Yes it's weird, and yes it's also fun as heck. Anonymous D on the DCEmu forums released jos newest update which now has a two handed mode.

Yup, you heard that right, a two handed mode which should allow for some pretty fast and frentic action, or some cool co-op. Before you get all excited, note that this is a LUA game, so be sure you know how to install it. Anyway, here are the controls for the game since there is no readme file included with the game.

Hand 1:
l = grab
dpad up = up
d pad down = down
d pad left = left
d pad right = right

Hand 2:
r = grab
triangle = up
cross = down
square = left
circle = right

The game has quite a few modes making this the perfect time waster. I'm particularly partial to the newly added two handed mode since it adds another layer of depth to the game. Be sure to keep checking back here for the latest homebrews.

v1.0 · Jul 10, 2007

Over at the DCEmu forums, Anonymous D has released the homebrew game Console Grab v1.0. In Console Grab, you're tasked with the control of a giant hand, which you use to grab consoles and handhelds for points. As is standard with games of this sort, you want to keep on picking up these consoles and handhelds to beat your high score.

Anonymous D notes that to get the game to run on your PSP, "Place folder in psp/game150 or psp/game with 1.50 as you game kernel. 1.5 users will need to kxploit the eboot."

Here are the directions for the game:

  • d pad = move hand
  • triangle = exit
  • x = grab or confirm
  • circle = increase hand speed
  • square = decrease hand speed
  • L = increase console speed
  • R = decrease console speed

Note that by increasing the console speed or decreasing the hand speed will increase the number of points you get per successful catch, while decreasing the console speed or increasing the hand speed will lessen the number of points you acquire.
