Again, we feature another contender in the NEO Summer Coding Contest. It is always nice to see a new emulator for the Nintendo DS and homebrew developer, AronBS">AronBS, took advantage of that and concocted the Midori NES Emulator. In case you were too young (or not even born yet) when the NES came out, allow us to refresh your memory.

The Nintendo Entertainment System or NES is an 8-bit video game console which became available in Japan in 1983 and in 1985 in North America. It was billed as the most successful gaming console of its time and was the first console for which the manufacturer openly courted third-party developers.

So now that the trip down memory lane is over, let's shift our attention to AronBS' homebrew emulator. The creation is not perfect...for now, since the developer mentioned that there are still too many bugs in this release. A lot of things is still missing, but give Aron some time, and let's see if he'll be able to rise up to the challenge of perfecting this app.

All you have to do is run Midori with your nes game as parameter and it will create an NDS file for you with the game. It wouldn't hurt if you'll read the readme.txt that comes along with the download. Aron mentioned that Megaman 1 and 2 works like a charm, but sounds are still missing.

The point of your post being? It's not a game of catch up. Both have their good and bad points.



I use my psp as a "Snes on the loo" machine and I think it's well worth the money for that alone.



My DS gets used as a "Games on the loo" and gets programmed for and I think it's well worth the money for that alone.
