6. 6 NDS HardWare (Front Face)

7. 7 NDS HardWare (Back Face)

8. 8 NDS Homebrew ■ Politics of the Nintendo DS Homebrew Movement  most people will never receive the contract with Nintendo  Dedicated hobbyists spend weeks reverse engineering the Nintendo DS hardware These people make up the homebrew movement ■ Is Homebrew Legal?  Homebrew is legal for a number of reasons  impossible to publish a game made with homebrew tools ■ The downside of homebrew  software pirates often steal from the discoveries of homebrew

9. 9 Passthrough Device ■ The purpose of the pass through  allow the running of programs on the Nintendo DS through the Game Boy Advance (GBA) cartridge slot or the Nintendo DS (NDS) card slot  The Slot-1 port : DS Flash Cartridge  The Slot-2 port : GBA Flash Cartridge

10. 10 Installing  Installing on Windows devkitARM : devkitPro updaterdevkitPro updater PAlib: PAlib InstallerPAlib Installer Install it to the same directory as devkitPro.Net framework : PAlib now requires for you to have the.Net framework installed  Get it here !Get it here ! that PAlib is not yet compatible with devkitARM release 21 so you need to downgrade to release 20release 20 reboot your computer!!

11. 11 Compiling Test ■ Emulators  No$GBA No$GBA contains almost full NDS emulation support including 3D and WIFI emulation.  Dualis Dualis it works pretty well for home brew, but isn’t as accurate as No$GBA.  iDeaS iDeaS It was the first to support 3d and sound, and... well,  DeSmuMe DeSmuMe maybe the fastest emulator for DS. doesn’t support sound and zooming/rotation

12. 12 Using PALib With Visual C++ ■ Using PALib With Visual C++ 2005 or Express  Environment Setup DKP_HOME  C:\devkitPro  AppWizard: Get the AppWizard hereGet the AppWizard here extract the contents VC8_Express_Setup.js VC8_Setup.js  double click

13. 13 Using PALib With Visual C++ ■ Building the First Project  the “make” tool we use to compile PALib project doesn’t like long filename and directories with spaces Tools  Options  Projects and Solution  General Change the field “Visual Studio Projects Location” to a folder with no spaces  Execute Visual C++ : File  New  Select New Project

14. 14 Using PALib With Visual C++ ■ the files that were generated by the wizard  logo.bmp → this is the image your app will show in DS Loaders.  logo_wifi.bmp → the logo to use with WiFi.  main.cpp → the main program file, with some code already written for you.  Makefile → a PALib makefile optimized for Visual Studio.  ReadMe.txt → some info. ■ Add Include  Tools → Options → Project & Solutions → VC++ Directories  select “Include files” \include\nds \libnds\include ■ Bulid  F7

15. 15 Using PALib With Visual C++ ■ Compiling Error 1  Invalid conversion error  C:\devkitPro\PAlib\include\nds\arm9\PA_Sound.h  add (u32*)

16. 16 Using PALib With Visual C++ ■ Compiling Error 2  File Open error  C:\devkitPro\PAlib\lib\arm7\arm7.bin add arm7.bin  current project folder

17. 17 Setting Up an Emulator inside Visual C++ ■ setup a NDS emulator as an External Tool  Click on “Tools”, “External Tools”  click on “Add” to create a new External Tool Command: Select NO$GBA.exe Argument: TargetDir)\$(TargetName).nds Initial directory: $(TargetDir)

18. 18 Setting Up an Emulator inside Visual C++  Make a keyboard shortcut “Tools”  “Options”  “Environment”  “Keyboard” Tools.ExternalCommand9  Assign Shift+F10

19. 19 First NDS Programming ■ Template's Main Code // PALib Template Application // Includes #include // Include for PA_Lib int main() { PA_Init(); // Initializes PA_Lib PA_InitVBL(); // Initializes a standard VBL PA_InitText(1, 2); PA_OutputSimpleText(1, 1, 2, "Hello World!"); // Infinite loop to keep the program running while (1) { PA_WaitForVBL(); } return 0; }

20. 20 First NDS Programming ■ Decoding the Code !  #include : include PAlib into my code  int main(int argc, char ** argv) : the start of your program  PA_Init(); // Initializes PA_Lib a general initialization  PA_Lib PA_InitVBL(); // Initializes a standard VBL VBL(Verticle Blanking Interrupt) synchronize the program with the screen, at 60 frames per second If you don’t initialize the VBL, either the program will work way faster (like 100000 frames per second, which is unplayable) or not work at all

21. 21 First NDS Programming ■ Decoding the Code !  PA_InitText(1,2); //Tell it to use text on screen 1, background number 2 Argument 1: screen (0 for bottom, 1 for top screen) Argument 2: background to use 0 for topmost layet, 1 for next, 2, and 3 for the bottom  PA_OutputSimpleText(1,1,1,"Hello World !"); //Print the text on screen 1 Argument 1: Screen (0-1) Argument 2: Horizontal (X) from which to start (from 0 to 31) Each tile is a 8×8 pixel square Argument 3: Vertical (Y) (from 0 to 23) Argument 4: Text  While(1) { PA_WaitForVBL(); } synchronizes the infinite loop (60 fps). 256 x 192 pixels
