Consider that the official emulator for DS games on the Wii U Virtual Console didn't have any networking support at all (and that the Wii - and by extension the Wii U - is perfectly capable of locally networking with the DS) it may well be a tall order to implement LAN crossplay between hardware and emulator.

Remember that Echoes of Time, a game that supported Wii/DS crossplay, only allowed a Wii to join a DS online, where the full Wi-Fi standard protocol was in practice. In LAN mode, the DS has to join the Wii.

DeSmume can with Wiimmfi



DeSmume worked even better than MelonDS on my PC.
I was never able to do any kind of multiplayer with MelonDS, possibly due to the terrible frame-rate it has on weaker PCs.

Cool! Pokemon WIFI battles between PC emulator and real DS. And, this job requires faster PC spec to works properly! :yaynds:

Not really, DeSmume is not MelonDS after all :v

My PC Specs :
4 GB DDR 3
Intel Celeron
Intel HD Graphics

I didn't have any problems with the Pokémon (just remember to disable the voice chat function otherwise DeSmume will crash.)

PS:
Also for some reason, your router has to be compatible with the Nintendo DS.

For example, in my parents' house whose I can't get my Nintendo DS to connect to the router there even changing the network to WEP or without a password, DeSmume WiFi presents the same error as Nintendo DS.

But in my house, where I can connect without problems on my Nintendo DS Lite, DeSmume also worked perfectly.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
