Did some experiments with my DS Lite and ended up with this. Using DevkitPro libs (libnds, dswifi, calico). Apfel on macOS and a wifi (WEP) bridge running on a RPi Zero 2W. 🖤

    Yeah, that’s not impressive at all compared to what I thought. It’s not much different than playing Crysis on a DS by just using remote desktop.

      No actually, that would be impressive. The DS is barely capable of decoding video. Getting that to work in real time, over the network, and low latency is a huge technical achievement.

      This is just a text input and output connected to a remote machine.

        Maybe not the perfect example, but then again, getting Crysis to run natively on a DS would be a significantly larger achievement than running a video streamer.

          Uhm, I figured out that people don’t like it. However, for me, it was a nice little project and it brightened my day.
