Homebrew n64 games on ds?

[KnuxTheFox]

Clearly, this isn't about making an N64 emulator, but finding a way to recompile N64 roms to run and be understood by the DS architecture. A practical porting algorithm. It would probably take a programming genius, but I'm sure with word of work being done, donations would come. So, money to anyone who is willing to take the task of creating a porting algorithm.

EDIT: Sorry i thought commodore 64 was a nintendo 64 emulator

I feel so old...

Me too. =(

you had to install that ram pack into your N64 to play it for those old enough to remember.

Somehow this made me feel uneasy and needlessly old. I don't consider N64 to be an old console. It's around the same age as PlayStation, right?

Replace the N with a C and you're slowly getting to old hardware.. Colecovision and Atari 2600 are old - N64 has 3d graphics for crying out loud..

You had to sit on your tape drive before hitting enter with your C64 to play, for those old enough to remember.

I'm off to sit on the porch and yell at those damn kids again..

EDIT: Being the old fart I am, I didn't read through the topic. It's a good thing I didn't. If I'd read this before posting, I would've just gone off to the porch and leave the int-aah webs for the youngsters to frolick in

I wish they ported super smash bros.

Damnnabbit, these pesky youngsters don't remember the joy of

load "*",8,1 or 1,1 for them wickedly fast cassette drives...


now do they !! oh the joy of them groovy loaders from the uridium/delta shooters !

Nor do they appreciate the inbuilt game. My Atari XE has Missile Command and Bug Hunt. What do you get these days? Nothing!

So how come this thread is stickied? Is it in order to avoid further questions regarding N64 games being compatible with DS?

If so, why not just delete this thread and have a mod make a new one making it clear in the very first post that it is not possible?

 

[paul3100]

Anyway back on track to what this thread is about!

So lets get this straight, An N64 emulator is possible

BUT

It would be very slow and to be honest a joke! playing at 0.1 fps and thats if we are lucky

So not feesable

I like the idea of a N64 rom converter

We load the N64 converter program in windows (pc/mac) and locate the N64 rom , then press convert on the N64 converter.
2-3 minutes or how ever long the game has been changed into a .nds file and fully playable on the DS WOOHOO

Now this i imagine is possible if you are very clever ( not me!)

Fully impossible because the controls will mess up. Nintendo knew what they were doing when they were adding the controls of SM64DS.
A program doesn't.

dont kill his dreams lol

iv got a fully working 100% no lag mischeif makers lol but its shit so ...

PM me if you would like me to send it

 

[asiekierka]

I dream of a PS1 game recompiler for NDS...
...using DLDI and external memory of SuperCard etc...
...but it will be just a dream...
...i think it'll be easier than N64... or am I wrong?

 

[dualscreenman]

You'd get 0.2 frames per second instead of 0.1.

 

[Lumstar]

Well... DS at this time doesn't run either N64 or PS1 games at all. There's not even a proof of concept emulation attempt to my knowledge.

 

[Chotaz]

I wish there is a super smash bros ds.

and that's what i think of it xD

nways, i dont think that's possible, n64 wuld loose a bit quality o NDS, just play them on Project64 emulator with a 3d acelaration 128mb graphic card, and youll play just fine

 

[Lumstar]

Don't try to play something like F-Zero X with a keyboard though. Yeow! Hardcode gamers only for that...

 

[piemastr]

Although its not much, why cant you overclock it. At least it will be over 100 MHz

 

[DanTheManMS]

How do you plan to overclock it? You can't do that in software, so you'd need to do a hardware mod. Even then, you're not increasing the speed enough to emulate the N64 at any reasonable speed.

Don't get confused by the so-called "overclocking" of the PSP. The PSP's CPU was meant to run at 333 MHz but was underclocked by games to save battery life. Homebrew programs that "overclock" it merely bring it back up to the 333 MHz speed the chip was designed to run at.
