Hello everyone :D

I'm Simon and I work at Neofid Studios ! We create new games for retro consoles ! :yaysp:
I'm 31 and I started my Gamer life with a super nintendo and a gameboy color, my first games were Zelda ALttP and Zelda Link's Awekening, I got a GBA later, sold second hand with the KuruKuruKururin cartridge included, I spent a lot of time on it! :toot:
My favorite GBA games are Golden Sun, Final Fantasy Tactic Advance, Advance Wars and Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, timeless classics :D

My father introduced me to gamemaker at the age of 8, and that's where my passion for gamedev was born. Now I've created an Indiegogo campaign for a new GBA game coded with Butano, let's hope it succeeds!

How do you even mKe GBA games in the first place... I've seen many developers make homebrew apps for said system, and ive always wondered what do you need to do in order to have your game be even ported in the first place.

Devkit Pro comes with example projects that you can edit and compile. It's a pretty good place to start.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    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
    for people with beefy hands.
