Again your only looking at people who only play graal. There are loads of people all over the world who have Supercards, M3's etc. that play homebre stuff, im merely suggesting make graal available on DS for them as well and graal will gain more players and more money.

Okay, now work out the time of converting the entire source for homebrew.

Oh, right, 2-3 months if you work straight. If it's a set decision by graalonline we might have it by 2010!

It's a horrible idea, if you are going to go on your DS to play graal... you require internet.. you have internet at your house. Use it there.

Not necessarily 2-3 months; if Stefan's really got Graal boiled down to Kernel And Emulator by now, it'd only take him about a week to make another species of emulator. (As in, it's PCGraal->Graal Kernel/MacGraal->Graal Kernel/DSGraal->Graal Kernel, and all these Emulators do is say "They pushed the Up key. Draw graphics.g? Okay" while the kernel does all the complicated - but platform independant - work.)

But that's an If, and such things are doubtless the highest possible secret.

Stefan needs to script the graphics-drawing for the ds etc.

graal hasn't even opened it's game world and it's been 4 months...

i dont think they have the resources to do stuff like this. just my guess though, what do I know?

This "kernel" method (although it's not really a very good word to describe it) is sort of how Graal works already I think, however the problem is that it isn't platform independant. It would still have to draw things to the display/framebuffer in a way that works for the current platform, etc.

I don't think you could use too much of the existing code, which is the problem.

While I agree that it's tricky to script, it's also an inevitable part of any platform's game. Thus it Should be fairly easy to either find a reference on it, or find someone to partner up on it. (Unless Nintendo's decided to make it as hard as possible to make games on the DS, in which case they can go to hell)
