  1. little update: I downloaded one of these demos (table hockey) with ds organize and then I could launch it just fine with moonshell....

    maybe stuff changed.. dunno =P

     

    tried a few more, from that site, and they work too!

    ..this is nice though, it means I don't need wifime anymore at all.

  2. Well, these roms have the .nds extension, which most recent flashcarts and memory card adapters are compatible with. I'm not too familiar with the GBAMP. What file extension do you usually use with that? :thumbsup1:

     

     

    .nds

     

    but there's a difference between commercial dumps, homebrew and these wireless demos, yet they all use the same extention.

  3. I also have the problem where Nintendo WFC works (with WEP), but homebrew applications using this lib will not when WEP is on; they will if it's off.

     

    However, that's with my router, a sitecom wl-114 (version 1). I tried it at someone else's place, and there the connection DID work, with WEP and all (a Belkin router).

     

    So, it's related to the router, but it remains odd that everything else works normally. I can't find anything weird in the settings either....

  4. KOF XI looks pretty by the way, and it is smooth.

    I think it's been long since I saw an SNK game that polished (I think, 1999?).

     

    The addition of new backgrounds for the PS2 version wasn't really nescesary (they're not bad though)... it's the backgrounds of the original arcade version that really stand out.

    In fact, all of the extra's put into the ps2 release I consider quite unnescesary. the game's good enough to not need it.

  5. mooney, you're late with getting an NGPC.

    A (half)year ago, bundles with a system and 6 games were all over play-asia. I was doubting wether to get one, but my waiting decided for me:

    Now the game bundles are still there, but the NGPC is not.

     

    and, as IJTF_Cinder said, getting separate games will probably be more worthwhile than getting a flashcard for it... if you can find a ngpc at all.

     

    As for emulation...

    dslinux, that wont run any emu in the state it's currently in (except maybe chip 8 in ascii mode =P ), and probably never will.

    Since dslinux is running "on top of" ds, that's not good for running an emu on, it eats up enough resources in itself.

     

    There's several emulators out there that are very portable, but DS homebrew isn't really picking up on it. Could still happen, though. I think a DS would be able to run a NGPC emu nicely.

     

    Or, one could save up for the (homebrew & emu-friendly) gp2x portable, it has a NGPC emulator (in addition, it also emulates an actual neogeo). PSP prolly does too, but I wouldn't like the firmware hassle myself.

  6. well, in my case, I was lucky to happen to have the right equipment for wmb/wifime already (before ever hearing of it), after that it was a matter of getting a gbamp and flashing the gbamp's and nds' firmware (flashme).

    So for me, it was very cheap and logical to make my DS homebrew enabled.

     

    I could imagine people not wanting to buy a passme or more expensive flashcard, or be afraid to flash the firmware.

     

    If it weren't for wifime, I wouldn't have been using ds homebrew right now. A gbamp I might've gotten anyways (my favourite homebrew app is the emulator Goomba, which is actually GBA and not DS - if I had the coding skills I'd try and port it to DS, but that's out of the question right now).

     

    That's another point - gba homebrew seems really popular, still...so maybe people would sooner develop for that.

     

    GBA homebrew works on DS, but with GBAMP, only a few things, because of the memory limitation. With a flashcard, that's no problem, of course.
