Misc Project 3DS web browser hidden game ported to PC and mobile

[AtexBg]

So as you may already know, the 3DS web browser have a built-in hidden game of Breakout, but did you know that this is just a little Javascript game?

It's located into the Web Browser app, precisely at this path:

romfs:/browser/page/e.js

the input handler in the script uses the gamepad API of the 3DS (called "navigator.webkitGetGamepads()") so i had to rewrite it to use the keyboard on PC
and because it uses the touchscreen of the console too it works for mobile users!

Here's an image with the game running on my 2DS XL and my PC (srry for the bad quality) :

I'm not sure but i think the game is also included on the Old3DS browser, if it's not i think it could work, but i bricked my Old3DS so i can't test ;TwT;

Yeah, go to the browser and load the game (tap a few times on "Most visited favourites") or try using my port at https://atexbg.github.io/breakout-3ds-browser/

It should work with your console

Same for me with the github version, my 2DS get stuck on "l'écran blanc de la mort" as i call it, but yeah on a Switch or a phone it should work normally

Edit: i think i will try to port the game to the Wii tommorow

Lol me i call it the "putain de 3ds tu va marcher espèce de saloprie" but yes i know maybe why it’s because your website is in https and i think it should be on http and on the wii maybe but remember it have 78Mo of ram so yeah but the wii already run linux so go try it i will also try on my wii u 5.5.5-E maybe but i wonder on the js page is it possible to put like custom words on the javascript like "MAIS QU’EST QUE J’EN AI RIEN A FOUTRE DE TA PUTAIN DE DEMANDE D’AMI (ref de tk78)" or "SALUT C’EST FRANCK LE BOEUF" lol

"putain de 3ds tu va marcher espèce de saloprie"

Nope i tried to host the website on my own PC with most basic HTTP 1.1 and it still wont load, it's because it uses a custom HTML canvas to being displayed on PC/mobile, but the 3DS uses a native function from the browser

Btw the Wii have 88Mo of RAM (64 of VRAM and 24 of normal RAM iirc), i already booted Windows 11 on a Wii so i think launching a basic browser would not be a problem lmao

And technically it should work w/ the WiiU browser and even use the touchscreen natively, but i don't have a WiiU to test

Could it work on older windows version and i don’t speak of windows 7 or xp but i speak of windows 2000, windows me (version de merde) ,windows 98,windows 95 and windows nt 4

I have NT4 running natively on my Wii but it doesn't support networking, and Windows 95/98/MerdeEdition runs on DOSBox that doesn't support network either, but on a real Win2K or XP computer it would probably work great

I will try on virtualbox on my shitty pc from 2011 because my switch can’t install windows 98, xp , 7 etc because of kvm something on qemu and gnome virtual machine app so i can do it on my switch with android but i dont want to take like 420 hours for like installing lol but i wonder if it works on the wii with linux but could it work on dreamcast web browser (rare thing from japan ) i have to try on flycast to test or could it also work on the olds blackberry like the phones with java and wap

I'll make a VM too to test that, for the KVM problem you have to disable it because it's used to interpret natively the OS instructions (x86 code on ARM, it obviously wouldn't work).

And for the Dreamcast browser i don't know the specs but if it can run Javascript and basic HTML it should be possible to make it works, and for the olds BlackBerry phones it may work even if the browser is not that advanced tho

Dreamcast has 16MO of ram and 8MO of vram and a gpu of 78 or 100Mhz and to have network working on dosbox try dosbox-x its far better than the outdated dosbox also it works on my Galaxy S3 4G with android kitkat and jellybean (it’s from 2012 lmao)

I could try DOSBox-X but the only ports of DOSBox for Wii (and also 3DS btw) are using the SVN framework, that doesn't natively support networking, and for the Dreamcast i don't think it would run the game

What you made make me think of a game that got decompiled and now it’s ported to everything (it’s lego island lol the famous you have to put the cd on your computer lol)
