NDS Emulation

Volinteer Wanted!

NDS Emulation — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 11:22:58 +0000

We are looking for a volunteer to help with this site and possibly with some other sites too if interested. This would be great for someone enthusiastic about Nintendo DS games and the written word and would be a good foot in the door for someone possibly interested in online journalism.

We simply do not have enough time any more to update this site as much as it deserves, we have over 50 sites that we managed and NDS Emulation has sadly been neglected. Another site that we are always looking for volunteers for is www.blogbox360.com

Anyone seriously interested in being a volunteer contributor, get in touch.

Anything new to be excited about?

I’ve been away from the DS scene a little while. Are there any new games that I should be truly excited about? A new Mario game perhaps, or the next Zelda universe to explore? If so, please tell me here and I will see if I can source some roms.

A great little platformer. This is the USA version. I would give this game a 8/10. Kind of reminds me of Super Mario on the Snes - great fun!

Worth Upgrading To The Nintendo DSi?

NDS Emulation — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 16:53:42 +0000

So the DSi is out and it’s meant to be great. Well of course it is, the DS was great so any improvement is just a bonus. Ok so the new DIS has better media support, and yet it doesn’t support mp3 which is just crazy – saying that getting a homebrew compatible cart would sort this as is the case for the old DS. There’s the camera (well 2 to be exact) which is a neat idea, and a SD slot, again a homebrew compatible DS would have this anyway. The DSi Shop channel sounds good, but I guess most people reading this don’t actually need to buy games anyway. There’s a larger screen and better sound. In my opinion the only real advantages are these hardware upgrades and the camera. I really would have liked to see a processor upgrade, but then I guess the old DS would be come redundant. Still they could bring out a card add on that gives better graphical performance couldn’t they?

To conclude I think if you have a DS already, as I do, then its probably not worth the upgrade. If on the other hand you are new to the Nintendo DS system, then why not get the latest hardware.

Favourite DS Game?

NDS Emulation — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 10:23:05 +0000

What’s your favourite DS game of all time? When I think of the DS games that really stand out I think of ones from quite a while ago. Super Mario Cart and New Super Mario Brothers are up there for sure. Zelda was good. In more recent times nothing really stands out. Chrono Trigger is great, but that was made decades ago on the Super Nintendo. I think Nintendo should look at the DS’s strengths, it’s ability to run pixel based old school games well, and stop trying to be fancy with 3D graphics on a system that can’t really handle it. To be fair I think the DS is in need of a processor upgrade, maybe in the form of an add on cart. I’ll give you an example. I’ve been playing Zelda Age or Seasons and Age of Oracles (a truly great couple of games by the way!). They are old Game Boy Color games. The DS just can’t handle it when there’s lots of music and sprites all over the place. So instead I’m running them on my PSP. Imagine that. A Sony hand-held better at emulating an old 8-bit Neintendo hand-held from 10 years ago than the latest Nintendo handheld. There’s something wrong with that.
