ROM Hack I know this may sound stupid, but....

[misticknight]

i was on YoutUbe a while ago and i saw a LocoRoco flash game being played on the DS. It was a demo made by Sony to promote the game on the website and apparantly someone downloaded the swf file (i think thats what its caleld anyways)and somehow converted it to play it on his DS. My question is is this possible, and if so is anyone working on porting the many great flash games on the Web to the DS now, or was this video just an awesome fake?

There was a SWF player for DS, I don't know how advanced it became...

Only supported simple movies IIRC - no actionscript or anything.

Well it could be achievable...Java games run on many phones which sometimes have lower abilities...I know it sounds crazy but if i remember right flash is based upon java?

I would venture a guess that the DS isn't fast enough to run a full Flash player.

Some one make an exe executer. You could just convert swf to exe on a pc and run it.

Thats even harder!
