I was thinking since homebrew is now possible w/ GW3DS, maybe someone should open a request of homebrew they would like to see ported. I'll start:

- Quake 1
- Quake 3

If you have any HB you'd like to see on the 3DS, post here :)

Nice idea! (these also)

Homebrew I would see:

E-Mail client
GBA emulator (good old times)
PSX emulator (Grand Theft Auto 2 on 3DS)
DOS emulator (YouTube: Windows 95 on 3DS) :D
Web Browser (much better and faster than preinstalled)
VNC/RPC client (maybe server, if possible)
Multimedia Player (for movies, network streams, music)

Games I would see ported:

Half-Life 1+2
Counter Strike v1.6
Fallout 1+2
Grand Theft Auto 1+2
Quake 1+2
Doom 1+2

Im sure we need a DOS emulator to run it. But Im sure, I dreaming... :)
 
I'm mostly pulling for a GBA emulator, but I'd also like to see a DLNA player.

Maybe even some software where I could just rotate objects in 3D and play with the lighting.
It'd be really cool if I could import simple objects from Maya or Blender or whatever and just look at them.


Oh, and a file browser. I'd really like an SD card file browser.

I was trying to get a running port of gpSP (or at least the CPU emulator in it for a start), but it seems that on the 3DS in usermode you cannot execute from RAM pages, which is a huge issue if you want to do dynamic recompilation vs interpretation. That and ninjhax has a limit to the amount of .BSS objects you can have right now, so it's tricky getting things done which require large amounts of RAM. Although he said he'd release an update to ninjhax soon, so that's nice.

And for file browsing, I've actually just found FTBrony, which is an FTP server which actually works for me (on Linux might I add). Although an internal SD card browser would be good for renaming, moving, and deleting files occasionally.
 
Ha. Requesting is extremely easy, developing is the really difficult part. Plus with not much market most devs won't consider producing the homebrew, including myself, unless they themselves have a real need for it.

Aside a working GBA would be great!
