Well, it was about time. It seemed like there was no real Bad Apple rom for the Nintendo DS yet, so I decided to make one.



It runs at 60fps and with 48 kHz stereo audio. I'm using a simple video codec I created just for this video. It simply encodes each frame into a character bg for the ds, merging tiles that are the same into one. Each frame is then LZ77 compressed to reduce the size of the remaining data by about 50%.

The source of both the player and the encoder can be found here: https://mega.nz/#!xhNQlRqZ!Iez6e-diTYIKyIrjLfXZD2fWJrps0_TPAMWxADaPmak

We have the sources though, so maybe there is a way to replace the audio...?

Crazy thing people would do for a meme.

 

[ov3rkill]

What the hell?! Oh well. TIL.

 

[Pomegrenade]

Ah yet again you never fail to impress me with you're DS skills, hats off to you @Gericom

Well, demoscene was almost the memes of the 80s.
It is only natural people would use memes as a base to do crazy things.
Like when you want to do something small with your skills but need some weird simple inspiration.

Okay, for all people desperately waiting for a Japanese version...

Here it is: https://mega.nz/#!tx9gVLQJ!rUCiZhHBDKX4ZB2x07BnlgQAqcUjb26EnnzZcpsF1Bs

I'd rather not. That would take me about 40 minutes to upload as my upload speed is shit. Maybe you could try the Mega app?

 

[Byokugen]

Lol! And in a silver platter please!

No need to be an ass... i just cant access Mega
Mega app just refuses to work for me. I will find a way. Thank you for your work @Gericom

 

[Something whatever]

What's so special about this animation?


Is it just me, or are weebs way too picky?

Way too picky... I

 

[sarkwalvein]

You can't access mega, or you can't access it in your phone?
The message reads as the latter, and if that is the case and you only need to wait until you get to a computer then it reads as asking for too much.
It reads like "hey, solve my problem because I can't be bothered to wait, and in all flavours please!".
It reads kind of rude.

 

[Pandaxclone2]

This is truly bizarre but awesome. I suppose this would be an developer encoder's "hello world" in a sense?

Also, both English and Japanese dubs are great IMO.
