Games
+1 Still Alive

Apps/Emulator
+1 Colours
+1 Lameboy

Oh and on the point of formatting, you should underline Games and App/Emulator and when something gets say 5 votes it bolded, 10 red, 20 blue, 50 green ect and add a key biggrin.gif

i'm trying to decide between making different sections for homebrew with more votes or just doing what you suggested... doesn't really matter right now though

how about cart specific, homebrew/emulators
using "spoilers", so if I have a dstwo I can click on the dstwo spoiler and see all the dstwo only emulators/apps/homebre, etc

example for the dstwo..imenu, ds2 pong, the soon to be release Atari 7800 emulator

that way you won't get a bunch of questions from noobs asking if the imenu will work on their R4 clone

should I make a separate section for these or just label them (clearly) as DSTWO only?

Also, are those votes? I don't think so

I'm actually thinking I'll make an extra section for DSTWO only stuff, because not everyone will have access to them, and thus they will get a lower percentage of the votes

so, time to make an edit

+1 FileTrip Download Link Meteora Galactic Battle
+1 Lemmings DS
+1 NESDS
How come FileTrip Download Link MoonShell 2 isn't up there, it should be there without say

Oh, right, just remembered, you should use paragraph tags
CODE
[p= ]text[/p]


This is what it looks like



I just saw this thread, so i guess you Terminated my homebrew essentials laugh.gif

I suggest to continue here with the Dylan's list. It's a good base.

+1 for FileTrip Download Link Moonshell 2

PS: FileTrip Download Link DSbible essential ?!

sorry for the lack of updates recently, been busy

I'm going to try to simplify the rules, as some people obviously didn't bother with them

A vote for homebrew that is not listed must also have a download link (preferably from filetrip and must not be a hotlink) and a short description
no link or description, I'm not going to do any of that (except neoplat) Edit: I'm sorry for sounding so harsh, but please do follow the rules, I don't mean to upset you
what do you think i should use the tags for?

What is Dylan's list? I'll only add those votes if they're current Edit: actually, i see it's the old sticky, the most I might do is +1 everything up high on his list or slightly more likely this one
As for Moonshell 2, I kind of forgot about it, as it comes with my card (DSTWO), I'll add it up there and +1 it myself too

DSbible was a personal pick, it's just to kick it off, I doubt it will be up top for long

I don't know of a lot of homebrew. I have an Atari emulator but I can't remember what it's called.

Apps/Emulators
+1 Lameboy
+1 nesDS
+1 jEnesisDS (It amazes me how good this emulator actually is, maybe it's because Genesis is easier to emulate but it seems better than the DSTWO's SNES emulator)
