Nintendo DS
« on: December 02, 2004, 01:19:15 AM »

Hello all.

I'm here to inform you of a website a friend and I have started.  We need users.  There's not much content on it but it will be forthcoming.  One thing I did do was put proper downloadable link to some QuickTime files of Nintendo DS games being played.  Nintendo's site has then stream through a tiny 640x480 window.  This was you can download it yourself and full-size the window.
Thanks for your support.

I've added another downloadable movie and another developer announcement.  We need more registered users.  Don't be shy people!  User submissions are strongly encouraged!

Thanks,

Lou

What does this have to do with the contents of THIS site. Its not Amiga related in any way, shape or form?

Nintendo DS is not an OS, nor is computer related (see section title of "Not Quite Amiga but still computer related category").  Perhaps it belongs in the Coffee House/General or somehing.

Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Not computer related?

See here:- www.dslinux.org

It has dual ARM CPUS's.

In theory AROS could be ported to it.

A small linux kernel + sdl + E-UAE would make an excellent portable amiga games player.

the list goes on............. ;-)

DSLinux doesn't exist.  Nor does a Linux + SDL + UAE that would fit into 4MB of RAM.  In theory lots of things could be ported to it.  But, for now there are no homebrew cards, so you'd need an official Nintendo SDK.

Which can not be used at the same time.  In DS mode the ARM9 is used.  In GBA mode, the ARM7 is used.  Either way a ~66MHz ARM9 is nothing to get excited about.  A modern PDA is much more capable, and has RAM!

All of this doesn't matter because the link was just about a NDS game site.

Awesome site I got my DS on launch day and
I am amazed with the quality and potential
of this system. I have SM64, Mr.Driller,
AsphaltGT and FeelTheMagic already. Your
site seems to contains a lot of good info
I did not read on other sites. Maybe I'll
write some reviews or contribute some
other way. :)

Nice site, it's no www.spong.com but it's VERY nice.
Best of luck with it, I love my DS!
BTW, DS does NOT stand for Dog S***! To spite what Sony says!!

Game consoles don't really use Operating Systems.  Games run in kernel mode and must simply follow a number of strict coding guidlines.

Ah, I just realised why I can't understand half of what you just said, and I bet you can't either - you're from Canberra  :laughing:  Seriously though, the DS is one damn inventive piece of kit, regardless of whether Nintendo is going bankrupt (or 'backrupt'), which they're not, and it's a shame that a company that strives to offer quality and inventive design over conforming to the mainstream is so often the subject of jokes and criticism.  (Quite a few parallels between Nintendo and Commodore/Amiga Inc. I think)

;-) I've seen the Nintendo DS systems on display at my local games shops, and they're quite nice.  there really is a lot of potential in them.

:-? I wonder whether four megabytes of RAM are enough to run AmigaDE?  That would open a whole lot of gaming potential, to be sure....
