@wizdum, The Nintendo dev community is quite large, maybe not as large as the Arduino community has become due to it's excellent speed of prototyping, I even favour atmega over pic's now for their ease of use.I made a pandora's battery for my psp and downgraded the firmware to run homebrew so nothing is impossible
Im not saying NDS is for everyone but it's a cheap way to get your hands on an Arm9 dev platform to program with c/c++
#include <nds.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int i;
consoleDemoInit();
videoSetMode(MODE_FB0);
vramSetBankA(VRAM_A_LCD);
printf("Hello World!\n");
printf("www.Drunkencoders.com");
for(i = 0; i < 256 * 192; i++)
VRAM_A[i] = RGB15(31,0,0);
while(1){
swiWaitForVBlank();
}
return 0;
}
I may have finally found a way to justify that C++ course I took at my university!
