DS had amazing music I think part of it has to do with how it was the last console where soundfonts were a thing, but unlike other soundfont-heavy consoles it could also handle recorded stuff with competence.

gonna drop some tunes

last one, unless something absolutely fantastic that isn't already represented here comes to mind

>>15924040

The World Ends With You. I was an angsty High Schooler when I played it, so I strongly identified with the story, but, hell man, that game dis so much with the DS and it breaks my heart every time I see it ported to mobishit or Switch. Amazing Soundtrack, great characters(for a Squeenix game), and the controls were so tight.

Fucking Hell, TinPin Slammer by itself could've been a great Eshop or Mobile Game. Way more fun than what's made for both.

>Last one

I've never seen a level completed in those webms. What game is that anyways?

>>15926315

Oh another thing to keep in mind is that the sound fond is already most of a GBA game's file size, so file size is another concern. 黄金の太陽黄金の太陽失われし時代 (I just did a play through of the games in Nipponese before this so I used that rom) is 16,777,216 bytes, but its sound font is 8,306,730 bytes (nearly half) of that.

Shitkings the lot of you.

>>15926413

No radiant historia either, for shame.

>>15926765

Think I've seen a copy of that around for $9 complete or so lately. What was it, a tactical RPG?

Pretty amazing how many solid titles were on it

>>15926315

>I just did a play through of the games in Nipponese before this so I used that rom

My nigga, I've been meaning to do that for some time now, I love those games since I was a kid. How does the script compare to the localization? I've read that the english version bloats the text too much.

Also the OST is amazing, too bad for the gba sound quality. Seems like someone redid the entire ost, seems its only on par with the first video you posted though https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B_O4xKWEcp5OaUQ4al8xbTJvQnM

>>15927092

I meant to say I did a playthrough in Nipponese before ripping the sound files. The actual playthrough was a while ago and it was likely me pointing out the bloated text.

>>15926775

Nah, a simple ARPG. I don't think 9$ is worth it. Why don't you just get a flashcart and play it, faggot?

>>15927128

Because my last DS flashcart anheroed about a month after I got it, and completely fails to boot after that. It didn't have completely up-to-date firmware available to download for it to begin with either, leaving the tail end of the DS library unplayable through it. Also inability to bypass copyright, in the handful of games I actually got to try through it.

>>15926528

HoD also suffers from the fact that Konami was forcing them to skimp on cart size, which means the samples are pretty terrible. I've heard it's responsible for a lot of the annoying level design too, though I've got no idea on that.

Where do you fags find all your roms now since all the sites have been btfo'd?

>>15927194

I've got mine archived: https://i.imgur.com/Lz4VTPS.png

>>15926131

I'm mad that this game doesn't have the option to enable FM soundtrack and I know it's all EO4's fault

>>15926219

>>15926207

Did anyone ever upload the DSi exclusive rerelease? I've only seen the base game and Coropata+ is supposed to have a lot more content.

>>15927168

So you got a shitty flashcart. Get an actual good one, nigger.

>>15928078

>Layton not under puzzle games

Every time I see one of these something is wrong

>>15928777

Heard the 3DS one was handled by different developers entirely.

>>15928785

it was. it really shows in the shmups tbh

The one I'd actually been wanting at the time was either out of print or simply banned from online marketplaces by Nintendo's market power. Not sure which exactly.

>>15924040

Off the top of my head, some of the DS games that I remember most fondly are

>Kirby Super Star Ultra

>Magician's Quest Mysterious Times

>Dragon Quest Monsters Joker

>gen 4 Pokemon

>Pokemon Ranger

>Mario Hoops 3-on-3

>the Mario RPG games

>Animal Crossing

I'd say most of these had aspects that made them feel uniquely like DS games. Particularly the games that had main mechanics that relied heavily on the the touch screen.

>>15930020

How did you break it?

3DS are still way too expensive for me, I bought a nice OLED Vita used but I'm not buying some toddler's scratched-up N3DS.

OGDS PATRICIAN PICKS:

>Picross DS

>Picross 3D

>Trauma Center + 2 (F)

>Dawn of Sorrow

>Order of Ecclesia

>Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime

>Front Mission

>Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey

>Henry Hatsworth

>Professor Layton

>Monster Tale

>Advance Wars: Days of Ruin

>Ninja Gaiden: Shadow Dragon

Think I bounced off everything else I tried. I never would have played it after ~2008 if I didn't buy a flash cart.

>>15930020

>photo dojo

I dont think I spent more than one autism enriched afternoon playing that game, but it made me think of Flipnote Studio.

>tfw will never scroll through hundreds of poorly drawn animations on Flipnote Hatena again

its probably better left in memory anyway

>>15930570

Does it hurt your feelings?

>>15925897

Wish for Avalon Code and Steamboat Chronicles remade as AA console games and an actual budget. The system is solid and could really use an iteration to iron out the jank. What happened to Matrix Software is an infamy.

My recs.

WiZmans World (Jaleco's last hurrah)

Nora to Toki

Would have said Ni no Kuni DS before, but it's already translated so enjoy it.

Anything IntiCreates that's not MN09, including lots of JP only quality license games

There's the strange situation of Harvest Moon a Tale of Two Towns.

>DS game by Marvelous, localized by Natsume

>comfty game

>3DS port of DS game entirely by Natsume

>janky as fuck, NA only

>Marvelous and Natsume have a falling out

>all new games are published as Story of Seasons by Xseed overseas

>Natsume can still rerelease older games

>AND use the Harvest Moon name for their inhouse Minercraft / facebook farming sim clones

>3DS remake of DS game by Marvelous happens, has quite a lot of extra content

>japan only because of the title's situation

>people actually think it's the same as Natsume's janky port

>despair

>people are feeling nostalgia about the fucking DS

fuck I'm not even that old argubly a newfag myelf 2014 and thats degenerate

>>15930625

Avalon Code would be terrible as a console game. What it needs is a PC remake, but it will never happen. Fix the FPS and resolution, make the random points that you need to inspect not absolute bullshit, get rid of the really tiresome delays when you want flip through pages and generally iron out all the awkward shit. And add a place to put codes that you need to move as well as a search function for codes of certain size and shape. It had great ideas that unfortunately were held back by the format.

>15930335

The DS Zeldas were shit though, because they were so obsessed with shoehorning in though screen nonsense where it didn't belong just to show it off. PH would have been significantly less shit if you could just use the d-pad to move and the stylus for things like aiming.

>>15930699

The DS is over fifteen years old, you fucking retard. "Nostalgia" doesn't mean "NES and earlier" or whatever utterly moronic definition you think it has. Nostalgia has no set time limit; what qualifies as a long time ago is relative. Or what, do you think that only the currently oldest person on Earth is allowed to feel nostalgic, because everyone else is too young? Is anyone alive allowed to feel nostalgic, or are they too young compared to already deceased generations?

>>15930625

Wait, so Story of Seasons IS Harvest Moon?

I've thought for a good while now that it was just another farm game series and ignored it

>>15930748

hotel dusk is so good. i hope more detective/mystery games with creative or interesting mechanics come out.

>>15930625

>3DS remake of DS game by Marvelous happens, has quite a lot of extra content

What kind of fluff are we talking here?

>>15930746

SoS is Bokujo Monogatari which used to be known to the west as Harvest Moon, yes.

>>15930831

You need to go back.

<J.B. Harrold

7 episode detective VN series set in North America, written in English first, yet mostly JP only or with chaotic english releases. Made by Riversoft, who went bust after Blue Chicago Blues and most of its staff joined then CING who worked on Hotel Dusk, Another Code and more VNs for the DS (all translated), then Chase on 3DS after they too went bust.

>1- Murder Club

English translation available on PC-Engine (uncut), has truncated home computer conversions

Also (no translation) on DS (remake)

>2- Manhattan Requiem

English translation available on obscure LaserDisc addons, and iOS/Android/Switch multilingual versions never released outside Japan

Also (no translation) on DS (remake)

>2.5- Kiss of Death

Spinoff of Manhattan Requiem, no translation, part of the DS remake of 2

>3- DC Connection

No translation.

>4- Blue Chicago Blues

Audio only English translation, only in full on an obscure Mac version (also ported truncated on Saturn). Rumored English text version.

>Three more episodes for Japanese phones

<Jake Hunter

Long running VN detective series.

>Originals on Famicom

>Continued on PS1 onwards with original games, still ongoing

>Mobile episodic series begun with reimagining/remake of Famicom games, then original content for 24 episodes

>DS/3DS has a series of ports for all of the mobile episodes, 5 at a time

>PSP and Switch got (besides original games) a best of compilation from the mobile episodes too

Only three games localized.

1- DS: First game in the mobile remake series that had the very first cases in the series from Famicom remade. Badly translated, then rereleased again with a different name.

2- 3DS: Last game in the mobile remake series

3- Switch: Daedalus, an original (TBA, but leaked)

<Detective Conan vs Kindaichi on DS

Dumb, short, fanservice plot, but has its moments.

Has a serviceable fan translation.

<Famicom Detective Club

Nintendo series. 3 games, only remake of 2 on snes translated but good.

Fun fact: came at a time most nintendo games had hidden horny easter eggs (checking boobs in marvelous, checking pants in retsu and go / super mario rpg, nudity hidden in level design in yoshi's island and kirby dreamland 2…) but this time it involved the skirt of a corpse.

>some semen slurping soyboy posts the heaping shitstain that is devil survivor

>no strange journey to be found

A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do it seems

I remember the skirt. The first professor layton also has one of the those when you have touch part of a picture of a girl. Layton kindly warns you to always behave like a gentleman if you touch her breast.

>>15932220

>Powerpoint games

Fun fact: This is a thread about fun.

>>15932370

is the 3DS remaster any good?

>If middle school you didn't cum buckets at that then I don't know what to say.

I think I filled all my buckets in that one afternoon or something because I made like 4 fighters and didn't really come back to it afterwards. I was even in middle school at the time.

>>15934067

I hate weeaboos. I don't conisder myself a weeaboo, I'm actually Japanese for real, well almost. I will be when I live in Japan though. Right now I'm studying japanese, japanese history and I'm following Bushido, the way of the warrior. This is why I hate weeaboos that know 5 words in japanese and use them all the time, kawaai baka DESU NE MOTHERFUCKER. I'm actually trying to become Japanese for real unlike all these faker wees. FUCK YOU WEEABOOS

So my question is, how good are my chances of becoming Japanese for real?

>>15934074

are you saying bug people speak is normal

>>15932723

You're better off sticking to the original.

>>15930748

>Another Code

>Outreaching hand on box cover

>Trauma Centre: UtK

>Outreaching hand on box cover

>Contact, located between the previous two games

>Two hands reaching about to make "contact"

Interesting coincidence of box layouts.

>>15934211

What makes it better? There's a touchscreen knife mode isn't there?

>>15937018

You don't have to play that mode if you don't like it. There's a classic mode where it's like the PS1 version.

>>15937120

I've been playing it and it's pretty nice for a handheld game.

>tfw I'll never get a friend as autistic as to play the game with me.

>>15937379

It would be nice for a gamenight. How hard is to set a NDS emulator for netplay?

>>15934211

Missing a ton of music and heavily compressed the music that's still in. Also the contrast is way too high on the backgrounds.

>>15934067

>hoverhanding your waifu

So, what's the best r4 or similar card for use on the Original 3DS to play DS games with? I have one it says 2016 or something and didn't run Another Code.

lost in blue

Did anyone ever play or fan translate that Ni no Kini game that came with a physical spellbook for the drawing of runes onto to NDS touchscreen?
