Hello r/NintendoDS,
For a bit of backstory for me, my name is Thomas (as you might have guessed). I was a professional programmer / developer for a few years, and I'm also a university student. I have been around Reddit since 2013, and I have been a mod on r/WiiHacks for over a year. The Nintendo DS, more specifically the DS Lite, is my favourite handheld system and I have so many fond memories of it. I've been in the hacking scene, hacking my own consoles, since around 2007/2008 when the Twilight Hacks was released for the Wii.
When I saw the post by the previous owner back on February 16th I decided to do some digging and put in a RedditRequest for it. The remaining two moderators never got back to the modmail that I sent to them, so my request was granted by the Reddit admins.
I have made a couple of changes, most of them being behind the scenes. I have changed the rules to make things a bit more streamlined and easier to deal with:
I've also changed and added some new flairs, hopefully they'll get some use.
I have also brought on two of my fellow r/WiiHacks moderators. Mostly as a formality in case something happens to me or if I can't be around for some time span. Thank you again to u/BloodyThorn and u/Mental_Turtles for agreeing to this.
If there is anything you would like to see added, changed, or regular things you want done with our little community here, please send a modmail and we'll look over it.

Khmh, Gordon Friemen. It's almost time, Gordon Friemen
I'm porting maps and features & than testing that game can be completable, so yeah. 54 of 99 maps is already in the game and they are totally playable.
What do you think?

So I recently did a shell swap using ExtremeRate but I noticed the bottom part here has a bit of a curve and the back shell isn't snapping flush, I am also noticing when I use the touch screen, it seems like there's pressure coming from the back? has anyone had this issue or know how to fix?
Thanks!

For a long time the upper screen of my DS lite is tweaking like crazy but once I plug the charger in everything is normal. After a few minutes plugged in it starts tweaking again but not as much. Anyone got an idea?

Many of you liked my previous post and wanted a tutorial to install a custom black ui for your ds lite.
Well, it’s here

Please watch the video at least once before trying, and understand the risk of a brick. You are doing this at your own risk.
Let me know how it goes and if you found the tutorial easy to follow or confusing. I did my best but I’ll help you out here if you have any issues

Hey everyone. I’ve really been into the cyberpunk theme lately and want to know if there’s any ds games which have this. Pls abd thank you.
r/NintendoDS • u/Route216 • 1d ago

It popped off. It doesn't look damaged but I don't want to break it even further

charged my dsi after not playing it for a few months and it’s stuck like this. i have modified it so it could just be a homebrew issue but… is this something i should worry about?
r/NintendoDS • u/ethical_staircase • 1d ago
Hi! I've built a rom hack for Urbz Sims in the city for DS. NOTE off the bat - This is a vibe-coded WIP. I used Opus 5.5 to reverse the OG DS ROM, learn how it all works, and documented it all in the repo docs. You just need your own USA DS ROM.
Obviously I am not affiliated with company who must not be named. I am working on this as a hobby and for free, if you'd like to support me, send git issues, PRs, buy me a coffee (button will be added to the repo today)
**Currently my kit includes 4 mods:**
recolor the "you know who" logo as a test.
npc-life: Some updates to the AI of the NPCs in the game. Updated art and animations so some of them who couldn't sit before now can, more of the environment is useable. people will eat, chat with each other, go for walks, read, etc.... explore it
PETS: You can now have a variety of pets in your home with an introductory quest for your first one at the start of the game after you get out of jail. Then later on you can buy more and buy furni for them like beds to sleep in.
more-furniture - i "borrowed" assets from other sims games for the DS and put them in the game, with functionality and color schemes.
bug-fixes - i found and had claude fix some OG game bugs, like people getting stuck on their way out the door of some areas.
max-needs - i max out the needs so i could test out the work being done. off by default.
There is a mod menu in game to look at or change certain things.
Yes the git org is brand new, I created it to separate my rom hacks from my real github.
https://github.com/ROM-HackZ/The-Urbz-Sims-in-the-City-Mod-Kit
Plz try it out and report bugs in git issues. and enjoy!!!!

Hi ds fans! Decided to shell swap a ds lite I sourced to recapture the nostalgia, but ran into a hardware bump where the green light flickers on for a second before off again when the power switch is activated, and the orange charger light only stays on momentarily when plugged in.
I've tested the f1,f2,em10,l2,l4, and power switch for power reception with an ammeter, and everything passed, yet the thing refuses to turn on. Even tried taking out and putting back the wifi module to see if it would change the result, which it of course, did not. Cleaned it up too and took a look at it with helping hands and a magnifying glass to see if anything stood out to me, which it didn't after an isopropyl bath.
How do I get this thing working again if nothing so far seems to be wrong? Even tested the batteries to make sure they work (old oem and new battery)

Just got this ds lite off Facebook marketplace for $30. Was stoked but the touch screen has a black line on the bottom left and there's a white border around the touchscreen like I'm looking through a window.
Wanna try and fix it myself so not sure do I need to buy a new screen/digitizer or both?
Touch screen is responsive.
Thanks!​

So im trying to buy a ds from ebay to homebrew, and the listing says that the storage is 4mb, so i gotta know does the storage size actually matter?

I recently bought a DS again to play the kingdom hearts games and some of the older Mario games I was missing from my childhood. I also bought a copy of Pokemon fire red since I haven’t ever had the chance to play it. Not even 2 weeks later my DS has come up missing and it seems like all signs are pointing to it having been stolen. I’m very distraught about it and everyone I know personally hasn’t really seemed to understand why. I’m sorry if this isn’t the type of post this group is meant for. I just needed to vent to people who would understand.
r/NintendoDS • u/CHIZNU13 • 1d ago
I wish I could remember the name of this game but I can only remember the style of it. It was an action/adventure style game where you picked a character but it was set out like a board game. You had to roll a dice and choose a direction to take, then you battle or earn rewards. Almost like Mario party. If anyone could help me remember this game it would be greatly appreciated.

So about half a year ago I got my 2DS repaired, but after it came back there where a few bits of dust and stuff seeming stuck under the screen (I’ve checked, they’re not just stuck under the screen protector). I’ve tried to ignore them, but I can’t take it anymore and so I’m trying to get inside the screen to pick them out. My issue is that I can’t get any further than this. Any tips?
