Hello everybody, this is my first post on a new forum so please be gentle. Might also be in the wrong place, so directions to a play where I could find the right sort of people would be much appreciated...
In the spirit of http://thecontrollerproject.com/, I have a case where I have a man with learning disabilities who is having some problems with his Nintendo DS and I was looking to you guys for some helpful advice.
The user plays a lot of homebrew games using an R4 card for his Nintendo DS. The homebrew games are great because they are (mostly) about the right level of cognitive difficulty for him. The problem I have is that the R4 menu system is overly complex and that if you press 'X" rather than 'A' when highlighting a rom to play then you delete the rom rather than play it. Obviously if you are pre-literate then you regularly end up deleting the game- this is very frustrating for everybody involved.
So I'm looking for advice on any of the following
a) write protecting the MicroSD so that nothing can be deleted (not formated for Chmod at the moment )
b) using a different menu system for the micoSD that doesn't have the delete option
c) anything I've not considered.
I'm happy to write code, and I'm happy to get a soldering iron out. I'm just not sure what about overall plan. Help me Obi-wan Kenobi...
