    Health Monitoring Tool Kit

    She's diabetic and wanted to make it so she could give her DS to the doctor and he'd be able to see the progress. Quite smart program to make, really...ever seen how much those dang machines cost?

    Homebrew new user with edge as of now what do u guys think are the best homebre

    nds-brewed hasn't even been around for that long, it couldn't have "ended up" like anything. And gbatemp is forum-centered too, does that mean it's broken too?

    No problem, it happens.

    Homebrew Am I The Only One?

    Point to where I said all homebrew games suck. If you can't find it, then I suggest you re-read what a person says before speaking with a confrontational attitude.

    Homebrew Am I The Only One?

    The people who actively complain about the quality of games are the ones to be ignored. I'm not talking about someone making a comment in passing, I'm referring to people who go out of their way to bitch and moan. But we can get just about anything "for free"...that's a moot point. But quite...

    Gaming Great ARPGs? Japanese Maybe?

    I've yet to find an RPG on the DS worth playing that wasn't a conversion from an older console.

    Homebrew organizational thoughts...

    Windows XP introduced a new "smart sort" method for filenames inside Explorer. It interprets whole values rather than actual filenames. anoNL, there's really no need for a docs folder altogether, just a single text file will suffice. Besides, you just drag n drop the binary and the folder onto...

    Homebrew Am I The Only One?

    OneMichael, that kind of attitude is one of the reasons why independent efforts rarely reach commercial quality. It's not about "what can we get for free", it's about "can I make this game the best I can". Furthermore, Dragonminded and Moonlight primarily make utilities, not games, so there's no...

    Homebrew organizational thoughts...

    Only game data is intended for the folders, not documentation. Furthermore, as a rule, documentation should either be kept apart from the game data, or tutorialized into the game itself. The .nds file can be put anywhere since you reference the absolute path. Finally, if your game has multiple...

    Homebrew organizational thoughts...

    I've suggested this to developers as well, but the end result is usually one of the following: -no way! I like my mess. -why don't we just use [insert name of obscure fat search algorithm] -I already use /data My proposal was to make one standard folder at root called gamedata, with several...

    Homebrew Am I The Only One?

    I too believe that there is a severe shortage of decent homebrew games. Just because they're homebrew doesn't mean there's any reason for making something second-rate. The best homebrew game I've played is actually a card game...Spider Solitaire DS by jt0. Solid gameplay, consistent interface...

    Gaming Nintendo sends a stealth bomb to the Industry

    Even if it did run at such a high clock speed, it wouldn't affect the power consumption all that much. A CPU running at 166MHz will not consume much more power than a CPU running at 66MHz. The power consumption does not scale the same as the clock speed, fortunately...if it did, we'd all be in a...

    Gaming How many retail DS games do you own?

    Just 1...Castlevania: Portrait Of Ruin. Used to own more but I sold them...both DS Pokémons (I had Diamond, my wife played Pearl on her coral-colored DS Lite, which she later sold for more than she paid for it!) and Brain Age 2 which came with my crimson DS Lite. I own a couple of GBA...
