If you are willing to create a branch of Abbaye which calls SDL_SetWindowDisplayMode to set the video mode, then it will be easier for me to add the missing support.
Apologies dude, I didn't notice you requested this until now. I made a branch here: https://github.com/JeffRuLz/abbayedesmorts-3ds/tree/wii

First of all, I made it so it sets the display mode to 320x240 if it detects a file called 240p.txt (here). I'm not really sure if I did that correctly.
Also, setting SDL_WII_JOYSTICK_SIDEWAYS doesn't seem to change anything. The d-pad is still oriented like the remote is upright. It's set before SDL_Init so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong there.

And lastly, since this game runs at 256x192 I wanted to display it in the center of the screen with a border filling the remaining space. When the window size doesn't match the logical size then the game is displayed in the top left corner. I believe the standard SDL behavior is to center the screen to the window, but I may be remembering wrong.

Also, I (succesfully this time) ported Sonic Robo Blast 2.1.25 to the Wii, but the Joystick api reports there are 0 Joysticks avaliable, this prevents me from using any kind of controller, Wii Remote, Classic Controller or GameCube Controller.
Any ideas? It's not that great to need to plug a keyboard in.

The problem is that joysticks take some time to appear. You can either change to the polling API, or add this at the beginning of the game (after SDL_init()):
while (SDL_NumJoysticks() == 0) { SDL_PumpEvents(); }

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
