Blite00/castle-crashers-ds: Early build

Local multiplayer through the DS ad-hoc local connection works as well! Levels just take a looong time to port over.

I'm bringing FNAF 2 to the Nintendo DSi — here's my homebrew project!

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm Felipe, a Brazilian developer, and I've been working on an unofficial FNAF 2 homebrew adaptation for the Nintendo DSi / DSi XL.

The idea is to adapt the experience to the handheld’s two screens: gameplay on the top screen, with camera selection and security controls on the touchscreen.

The project includes cameras, the Freddy mask, flashlights, the Music Box, night progression, and custom interfaces for the handheld. Working within the console’s memory limits and getting these systems to cooperate has been a big learning experience!

It’s still being improved, and I’d love feedback from people interested in FNAF or Nintendo homebrew. If you try it, let me know:

• Which device or emulator you used.
• Any bugs or crashes you encountered.
• Whether the difficulty feels fair.
• What you think of the touchscreen controls.

This is an unofficial, non-commercial fan project. Five Nights at Freddy’s belongs to Scott Cawthon and its respective rights holders.

Thanks for checking it out! What do you think of playing FNAF 2 across two screens?

Unlaunch, Hiyacfw and format system memory

Post image
2 Upvotes

I’ve recently bought my GF a Ndsi Xl for around 50$ and painfully managed to install unlaunch and hiyacfw using a laptop running winxp, a 3ds, and a really slow tablet disguised as laptop.

However, I’d really like her to experience it as if it was brand new(or almost there, considering the scratches lol)

So I was pondering if it’d be ok if I clicked this button, or if it’d brick/unsettle the jailbreak and etc

R4 not recognized by DSi

Post image
7 Upvotes

It's been a while since I played with this console because the r4 isn't working, but I recently had the idea to try and download games on it if I could make it work again.

The DSi is reading other games, and the logo of the r4 appears, however when I try to play it shows the message "no card". If my r4 is dead, is there a way to know using a PC ?

So... 3DS is fast enought to run Starcraft

92 Upvotes

Because we live in the best time line for gaming... I'm porting Starcraft to 3DS. Test build to check FPS and TPS runs just fine and terran vs terran with AI playing works. So, the first 5% are done, now the rest of 95% have to be done.

How do I mod a ds? I have an old sd card adapter and a 32 gig card but I need to reformat it, do I reformat it and mod my dsi? If so give me reasons why.

NDSL bluetooth mod help

Post image
6 Upvotes

I'm completely new to modding, and recently looked at a guide on how to use a USB bluetooth dongle to add bluetooth connectivity to a DS Lite. The parts arrive this week, so I'm not backing out, though I'm lost on one thing.

The negative pin on the USB dongle, where exactly does that connect to? I'm fairly certain the two dark dots on the right image are brown, but the negative pin on the USB dongle appears black. Does this black connection just go into GRND on the topside of the PCB?

Tried reaching out to the original modded with no response, so... I'm a bit lost

Resident Evil 2 DS Port

Post image
592 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a side project for a few days now: a port of Resident Evil 2 for the Nintendo DS, built by reverse engineer anything and Claude Code. It's still rough, but the core loop is playable.

What works so far for example:

- The first 2 cutscenes (with Claire and Leon and in the gunshop)

- Core Loop: Picking up items, combining them, shooting and killing zombies, getting damaged and dying (You Died Screen works)

- Sound effects and music

Known issues / what's missing:

- Music sounds weird for example in the police station

- every other cutscenes

- you can see through some walls

- the DS Rom is already nearly 300MB large but i think it will not get over the Limit of 512MB

Feel free to share! It would be nice to have more collaborators because I only have limited time/resources.

The code is on GitHub if you want to take a look or help. You can follow the Readme notes to create your own .nds File Git-Repo
