DS icons:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=45360 if you want to do it manually.
There was an editor called RomeR not so long ago by Kyuzumaki for all DS code and Rominator does it (RomeR was more or less integrated into Rominator) for commercial roms as I recall.

PC icons
If you mean DS roms them the cycloDS team made an app/plugin to make DS roms have their own icon in windows.

If you mean in general there are many ways but the simplest is to make a BMP file with the extension .ico and set it manually
This is one of the few times you will ever see me link to wikipedia but for once it has it correct enough:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICO_(icon_image_file_format)
To set it in an explorer window hit tools -> folder options -> file types browse to the extension you want to change and hit advanced -> choose icon and browse to the .ico file.

    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
