    Nintendo DS

    Thought Legolas would find this interesting. This site is packed full of all kinds of NDS information.

    This link here shows a chart with the hardware differences between the GameBoy Advance and the Nintendo DS: http://www.ndsemulator.com/nds-emulator.htm

    Well it seems that the NDS port may take just a wee bit more than the ARM. We're talking a new RTL [size=9px](I think a seperate one altogether, no?)[/size], hardware units, etc...

    But indeed it would be worth it. However this dream of ours would be easier done if we had more help. *hint hint*

    I'm resuming this old thread for some great news: after some checks, Florian has stated that the actual fpc compiler is compatible with ARM9 architecture, so it should be usable without changes for nintendo ds and gp2x ^_^

    In the next few days I'll try to start a new porting for ds: anyone wants to help? There is a lot of work trying to convert the dslib... :cry:

    About gp2x: because it runs a linux distro, it should be possible to use the arm-linux crosscompiler without changes. The only work to do is to port the gp2x sdk to pascal. It could be nice if someone with this handeld would try to help

    The only person on these forums that I know of, who has this handheld, is Sly. But he has been very very quiet lately.

    Great thing is SDL is installed as standard on the GP2x.

    As far as I can tell there are now 2 commercial games for the GP2x...
    Vekar - http://gp2x.co.uk/commercial.html ( an asteroids style game )
    Payback - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0M4IcAczQc ( a 3D GTA style game ).
