I demand DSi browser shmups ...pretty please

Post by DJ Incompetent »

Hi.

I want a smaller DS for my pocket, but I want to keep a few games on me, pocketing extra cartridges is inconvenient, and DSiware is supposedly useless on quality for the time being.

I guess that means doing the same thing like when I first got the wii, playin' flash games in the browser with the console controls. It was a good past-time.

Anybody on the dev scene know of or wanna create any javascript STGs?

Supposedly, DSiCade is getting the ball rolling, but that shit isn't troubleshot very well. It looks like all games are in javascript. Dunno if the browser can even handle flash. There's no youtube support, so I'm guessing no.

I haven't been able to find much on what the browser can and can't handle. Whatever 133 MHz processors and 16 MB of RAM can do, I guess. Jack and Shit I suppose.

Any name drops would be fun and useful.

Looks entirely Javascript based. Too bad ..

Not like Nintendo really wanted people to be playing browser games with it anyway.

yeah, but you know somebody made some ghetto-ass STG from 1996 internet on Windows 95 that could probably run on this thing.

I wanna play that stuff. and laugh.

Chances are Javascript that old won't even work in modern browsers.

I have Javascript I wrote in 2001-2002 that won't work anymore.
