Homebrew Minecraft DS (in 3D !)

[Dann Woolf]

I'm pretty excited about this, seeing as my shitheap laptop can't run Minecraft anymore. I need my fix, man.

The demo is really great. If you add a save function, remove crashes and add more blocks, It would be awesome

Indeed there's quite a bit of interest in this project. A couple of days ago I looked at the bottom of the page here and it showed "290 User(s) are reading this topic"

So.... How long before the inevitable C&D?

I hope never. This is gonna be good if it's complete. And I think that the guy behind this all will not stop, seeing the large amounts of Praising comments

that's what they said about Crimsom Echoes and Streets of Rage 4...

when it all comes down to it..the dev wants to secure his bottom line...

but it would be a epic dick move to C+D something that is normally free

this is so awesome, classic is nice, but if you made a classic with doors and torches, that'd be so awesome

This is how I imagine interface of MC on DS.

I wish I had a DS to test it out! Any chance of a wii homebrew port when you done?

This is being made with the specifications of the DS hardware in mind. If people want a Wii version, a Wii homebrew developer will have to jump on that. It's an entirely different beast to tackle.

well when he is done with the DS version I am sure a wii dev will find a way to port it.

 

[Nathan Drake]

A Wii version could be much more full than this is likely to be. I would hope a developer wouldn't just be lazy and port it, but rather, make it from the ground up.

The Wii dev might as well make a port/remake of the actual Minecraft, a port of a port seems like more trouble than it's worth.

I feel like making a Wii homebrew like this, but I have no programming skills whatsoever. i can only recognize some usages of code.

 

[newo]

Homebrew games take along time to make and some games as very "tricky", I know because I've been making one for six months. Seeing that nobody has made a wii version of minecraft yet, i presume our best bet would be to get a port of one as a starting point. Even better if its already done.

Why? The original Minecraft is written in Java, this is C++. C++ compiles on everything? Yes? Won't take long to adjust it for the Wii compared to building it from the ground up

I believe it should be like this.
