Wokie Dokie. I hope some of you had some fun with my guide (click here) on running Neo Geo games on the Nintendo DS. Here are a couple of video that I shot to show that it works, featuring Metal Slug X and King of Fighters 2003. God bless the guys who made NeoDS. They [...]

I never had the opportunity to play on a Neo Geo arcade machine, but a couple of years back, I had the opportunity to watch a former colleague blaze through King of Fighters on one, in a single sitting, in an arcade right in the heart of Bangkok. That to me was pretty cool. And [...]

D-Pad Hero is a really cool homebrew game for the NES and it’s pretty easy to see where the game draws its inspiration from, which is Guitar Hero and its ilk. The game is freely available from the developer’s website in ROM form. While you can run the game on an emulator on a PC, [...]

The last ROM Report was written like months ago, on how to run Sega MegaDrive games on the Nintendo DS. Pretty retro stuff huh. Well, in this edition of The ROM Report, we’ll take a look at something that I can relate better, running an all time favourite PC game of mine, Quake II on [...]

Some of you might remember Nintendo’s late last year announcement that it will be collaborating with AM3 to introduce the first ever official Slot-1 flashcart for the Nintendo DS, the D3Vision.

Someone actually asked me on how to install Beup, a MSN client that runs on the Nintendo DS. I figured that this would make good material for nineoverten.com’s inaugural original Homebrew article. And it’s also a chance to try out really cool stuff. Prerequisites There a couple of things you would need to run Beup: [...]

This article could have been titled “How to Add Cheat Codes to Your R4DS?” as what am I about to describe to you is essentially that, but hey, I figured the title is eye-catching, so do bear with it . Produced by Taito to go along with its release of Arkanoid DS, the Paddle Controller [...]

Welcome to the Ninth Edition of The ROM Report, and a Happy New Year! Today’s post is partially inspired by Retrojunk.com, because I really like the site’s articles on NES and SNES games. Without further ado, here are the SNES games that I tested with SNEmulDS running on my R4DS/Nintendo DS: Robocop 3 – Runs [...]

Welcome back to The Rom Report, currently in Issue Eight. Here’s where you’ll find what retro games from the NES, SNES, Genesis, and Gameboy eras will work on a modern day device such as the Nintendo DS with the help of homebrew emulator software! I came across this back-issue of Retro Gamer at a local [...]
