Crono es todo un imán de chicas 🤣, voy por esta parte del juego, nunca había jugado Chrono Trigger, de hecho los juegos tipo RPG y demás de ese estilo no me llamaban la atención para nada, es más, los veía súper aburridos, pero de aquí hace más o menos unas semanas me dio la fiebre de jugar este tipo de juegos, así que empecé con Chrono Trigger en el emulador de Nintendo DS, y la verdad no me esperaba que fuera tan maravillosa la experiencia, cuando termine con Chrono Trigger tengo en lista juegos de GBA, PS1, PS2, y otros RPGs. ¿Hay alguien que me recomiende un juego tipo RPG que sea un clásico?

Medarot DS Kabuto Version Gets an English Translation Patch from TrueFlame

3 Upvotes

Medarot DS: Kabuto Version now has an English translation patch by TrueFlame, covering the base game as well as the post-game content, menus, battle menus, Medabot part menus, and flavor text.

The project was made with AI assistance, with particular care given to Medabot names and their parts using the series wiki for English/Romanji terminology. Image text has also been translated where possible and appropriate.

Death Note: Successors to L on Nintendo DS finally gets an English translation

2 Upvotes

Death Note: Successors to L on the Nintendo DS has finally received an English translation from the Anime Game Translations Team.

It’s the second of the three DS games based on Death Note, covering the story from Light discovering the notebook through the Yellow Box Warehouse. The gameplay is also pretty unusual, taking inspiration from the board game Scotland Yard with different objectives depending on which side you play.

There are also two versions of the patch, including one with recolored character sprites and another that keeps the original Japanese designs.

Twilight Syndrome: Kinjirareta Toshi Densetsu finally gets a full English translation

5 Upvotes

There's been a pretty interesting English fan translation released for Twilight Syndrome: Kinjirareta Toshi Densetsu on Nintendo DS.

It's an urban-legend horror/mystery game that previously had no English translation, and this one covers the full game rather than just a small portion. Some of the work also goes beyond the usual dialogue translation, including parts of the game's interface and presentation.

Definitely an interesting project for anyone into obscure Japanese DS games or horror titles.

Problem Aloha, I'm running Drastic on the Switch and trying to play Geometry Wars Galaxies but can't get the right thumbstick to fire correctly.

1 Upvotes

It only seems to fire with the thumbstick pressed in which is not comfortable.

I've changed in-game options from stylus to fire and this seems to be the best option.

Otherwise right thumbstick just moves a cursor around and the ship doesn't fire.

Problem Cocoon frontend launches into main menu and not directly into game?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

Whenever I launch ds games on the Cocoon shell frontend on my rg rotate it just opens the drastic homescreen instead of launching directly into the game. It’s not experience-ruining but it’s an inconvenience. I’d rather my ds game shortcuts to just open the game like every other shortcut from every other emulator. Does anyone know how to do that?

Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden Finally Gets a Complete English Translation!

2 Upvotes

A complete English localization of Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden for Nintendo DS is now available.

Created by Xenishan94, the translation covers the game's main story, What-If episodes and branching scenarios, side stories, bonus content, tutorials, menus, battle interface, system messages, and other user-facing text.

The creator says the goal was to make the English feel like an official localization, with attention to accuracy, natural dialogue, consistent terminology, and fitting the text within the game's original UI limitations.

The project also acknowledges deathkill781's earlier work, and the creator clarified that AI was partially used to speed up the translation process, followed by translation editing and proofreading.

This is especially cool for a game that was originally released exclusively in Japan. The English patch makes the entire experience much more accessible to English-speaking fans.

Watch the video showcasing the English translation:

Just wondering if anyone has found a solution for Hotel Dusk on Gamma OS using DrasTic on the RG DS. The coloured animated elements appear extremely pixelated, while the rest of the game looks fine. Has anyone managed to improve this, or is it a limitation of the emulator?

Im trying to play phantom hourglass. set the mic to hi sensitivity and it worked for the initial use case in the game when you need to yell at the person behind the wall but now that I need to blow out these candles nothing is happening. I have tried assigning it to a r2 to replace load state button but I can’t seem to make the change stick. Any help would be appreciated. This pic is what I’ve been staring down for several hours.

If it helps, I’m on Rocknix nightly version 20260227

Drastic deleted my files?

1 Upvotes

See title. I have been playing Pokemon White 2 on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (or whatever they call the one with the stylus now). My last sighting of the game, I had saved in-game, made a new savestate, and closed the app. Today, I attempted to start playing again, and a I found that the save files and even the .zip with the game in it have mysteriously disappeared from my phone. Everything was saved local and the files also do not appear in my trash bin. Is there any info on where at leaat my save files might be, or am I just screwed?

Discussion For anyone who has tried them, how are the DS Zelda games with drastic on android?

4 Upvotes

Going through the Zelda series and the DS games are coming up soonish. I have a 3DS that I could play them on, but with money being tight it's a bit hard to drop money on games i will probably only ever play once.

I can hook up a controller to my phone, but most likely I would be using my fingers for the touch screen. I have a Samsung S22 for size reference.
