This is great news!

For getting these onto our G6's, do we just open the cart in a file viewer and copy the files over to place these in the root directory? Do we still put the nds files through via the Game Manager, or can we just add those at the same time? I was reading the ScummVM DS page, and I assume we use the "Zip method" for games on the G6?

Can't wait to try these out!

Cheers,
Tom

Afaik, a library is used when you write the program, so you can't do anything with it, the developer has to compile the source with the library, and release that.

For ScummVM DS download this file. Transfer the three .nds files to your G6 using the U-Disk Manager's "Directly Copy" option. Copy the three .ini files to the root of your G6. Then create a folder called ScummVM on your G6 and copy your unzipped Scumm-games into it. Works for me

Thank you very much for that great walk-through! I am digging out my old discs now to give this a try.

Cheers,

Hello, I don't know if this is the best place to ask, but.... Does anyone know how to get the G6 version of DoomDS running, I am still getting that same error, survived graphics initialization. Thanks in advanced!

  • 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".

    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
