Looking to get some cheap extra stuff like a charger, stylus pens, case, etc... Anyone know of any cheap online store (DX, focalprice, etc.. don`t seem to have much)
AND/OR also does the DSi use the same charger and do the stylus pens fit into the DSi the same for XL.

A stylus is a stylus it'll work on the screen no problem, but a DSi stylus won't fit in the slot of a DSi XL, since it's a completely different shape.

It'll be a little while yet before the Chinese cheapo places get some DSi XL accessories out to the mainstream sites. You should be able to use a DSi charger with it, but not a lite charger. The lite charger uses a completely different connector and even outputs a lower voltage.

The XL comes with 2 stylus pens though -- one in the DSi, and another that's in the shape of a large pen. No chance you'll be losing that one!

Me, I'm waiting for a case that fits the damn thing.

Has anyone seen a charging dock that is powered over USB for the XL? I know plenty of em exist for DSL and DSi, but I haven't seen any for the XL outside of ones in the expensive 15135-in-one combo things...

i bought http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Nintendo+-+Tra...p;cp=1&lp=6

in brown for my bronze dsi, really nice case.

but i also picked up screen protectors at the same time (they are made by rocketfish but the brand isnt stamped on the front) and they are some of the worst quaility screen protectors i ever tried. tossed em right in the trash. what a waste of 6 bucks.

Oh my god. I bought those screen protectors also. Put it on and bubble city. I know I'm probably not the best ever at putting screen protectors on but it was just ridiculous. I immediately took off the protectors and threw them away and kept the cleaning cloth. Now I gotta buy two more sets for my XL and the girlfriend's XL.

RenChi have DSi LL/XL cases and screen protectors...

Don't forget... the LL has been out in Japan for many, many months... so lots of Asian online shops have had accessories for a long time already...

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
