The State of DS Homebrew (it rocks!)

Justin writes "PSP homebrew always seems to get all the attention, but the DS homebrew scene is surprisingly active and robust as well. Modojo has an in-depth feature examining DS homebrew, including such things as PDA applications, indie games, and ScummVM DS (for oldschool LucasArts adventure games). From the article: 'My initial reaction to homebrew was little more than a shrug. I summed up the entire idea very simply with: Why? Why waste time on exploring less than impressive independent titles and old emulators when there is already so much new and interesting content for the DS? Luckily, at that time I couldn't have imagined the amazing world of homebrew I was denying myself.'"

  1. PSP's better for homebrews by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Ya know why PSP gets more attention? Because you can put full length movies, PSP games, and all sorts of other stuff on that tiny little memory stick duo. I invested in a 4gb card and I pirated games to my heart's content.

    It's easier to do, you can plug your psp right into your computer. As long as you don't get those worthless firmware upgrades Sony spews out. Death to Sony, they eat babies.
