Nintendo Pokemon Mini LCD Game Hacked
Team Pokeme writes "Nintendo's Pokemon Mini LCD mini-handheld has been hacked by us - you can check out the videos on our site for more information. The cartridge pinout has been reverse engineered by using logic analyzers (thanks to DarkFader), and also the instruction set by disassembling (thanks DaveX!) the Pokemon Mini emulator that is built into Pokemon Channel, a GameCube game.
DaveX wrote the first homebrew game, SokoMini, after finding out the tilemap stuff."
... you realize that you spent your time hacking *pokemon minis*.
Cool! I always wanted to play Pokemon vs Street Fighter.
Something about the 'shout-outs' in this article that keeps me from taking it a bit more seriously.

Can NetBSD run on it yet? :)

Um...well, I guess I can respect your optimism.
Maybe they are hacking it to make the game fun?
/sarcasm
Otherwise, I am impressed that a team of 8 year old girls had the know-how to hack their toys.

Now that you are done with the LA, could I take it off your hands for $100? :-)
I want my rights back. I was actually using them when our government stole them after 9/11.
pretty hardcore...i'll be sure to tell my eight year old brother that he'll probably have pong on his pokemon mini
port linux to it
port bochs86 to it
run windown on it
play the windows version at an astonishingly bad fps/resolution
given the current state of trolling, maybe gentlemen is also a bit optimistic :P
DAMN YOU, I'M A WANTED MAN! ::runs and hides under bed::

And who is going to be the first sad person to use this as a basis for a wearable head-mounted display then?
:v)

This is starting to shit me - I'm all for shameless self-promotion but goddammit make sure you've got a server that will last more than 10 seconds!
Can I also please make the Ob/. joke that the page is clearly being hosted on the pokemon-mini they've hacked?
Hey, I think you misspelled "Linux"...
Please help metamoderate.
1) post your website on slashdot to boast it
2) change your website to "bah come back later"
3) everyone who wants to see the page from slashdot doesn't get to due to said message, thus defeating the purpose of being posted on slashdot
4) ????????
5) profit!!!
What a great idea! Plug your own site on slashdot, when you have no idea what you're in for.
a game involving all of the above, as well as Natalie Portman/grits. Use ASCII characters, and call it SlashHack. Make it massively multiplayer, and get this: at random intervals, everyone else who's playing begins thrashing your box with corrupted packets...
At the end, you have to defeat CowboyNeal...
If my answers frighten you, stop asking scary questions.
You've lost me. Why would the Dept. of Homeland Security be in charge of getting rid of stupid people?
Banaaaana!
I only have Pokemon cards, you insensitive clod!
(first edition too, muhahah....let the kids tear theirs up...mine are sleeved and waiting for them to enter the prime earner years...ok I'm lame)
Guess I should have sold both Charizard cards when it was up to $900 on eBay...wonder who bought that? I bought mine at the comic store when they came out, since I was so into CCG cards at the time.
So we can have a pokemon mini beowulf funfest...
I can combine that into one healthy line.
*big breath of air*
In Soviet Russia, CP/M thinks of the children illegally while Windows XP is stable and unreliable and profits from insensitive clods who live near Iraq and Brazil.

Looks like their web server was running off of a Pokemon mini.
