People would need to own PSPs for that to look enticing.

Yea, same with DS though too, and Stefan already mentioned DS only has 5mb of RAM, which would be extremely hard to port to the DS, so the PSP would be the best thing, right?

[Inverness]

Thats pathetic, they can fit a gig on one stick easily, with 8 chips per stick of RAM each with 128 MB, and they couldn't fit something like that into the DS? Or maybe even if it did have enough memory, the processing power would probably be lacking, same with resolution.

[OMGosh]

Graal doesn't have the support to make it onto a platform system, I believe.
Who the hell COULD or WOULD just make a game for free? Lol, DS or PSP (maybe) although, anyone of us would work on those for free, I'm sure.

Space-wise. You, obviously, don't put ALL the images we have now. You can limit it. And if you're going to make it for online use, as well, limit the amount of levels 2-4 people can share. =]

Like a small GMAP you can edit and add things to.

Bah PSP sucks, If you barely bump it, the thing shatters. and it's not all that better than the DS.

Do you own a PSP? From the looks of it you don't. I've had mine since it came out and its not broken at all, what are you talking about it shatters if you barely bump it? I love my PSP, it comes everywhere with me, perfect for music, perfect for browsin the web, perfect for gaming, perfect for movies on the road ((when your laptop dies)), and perfect for just about everything else. The DS doesn't even compare to a PSP at all. The PSP beats it in all ways around. I don't understand your "it's not all that better than the DS" lingo, because it definitly ISN'T!

DS has way better games.

Technically the PSP is much more advanced, it's better than a PS2 which says a lot. On DS there a lot of nice games though, there is the touch-screen which makes it possible to make some special games which are not possible on the PSP, and it's overall more a game platform, loading of games is instant most of the time while the PSP is more like a PC where it takes some moments to load games or new maps. Both platforms are quite interesting, it almost looks like that they are replacing the stationary game consoles (PS3 etc.) in the future.

Pictochat owns everything the PSP has to offer. I tried a PSP and the way the controls felt just seemed wrong. But for putting Graal on the DS you could take the original Graal the Adventure and break it up into seperate files so it wouldn't be too big. A good amount of people I know have flash cards for thier DS meaning you can store information from the computer onto them.

There's a memory extension pak out for the DS now that ADDS 8MB of ram... It currently comes packaged with the DS Browser, but I'm sure other games will be taking advantage of it in the future.

But even still, you mean to tell me that you couldn't compile a make of Graal to work on the DS when I can play 3D N64 ports like Mario 64 and Diddy Kong Racing? 0.o

I must not be understanding how this works.

[OMGosh]

Yeah, c'mon Stefan! Please try again!! For me? <3 lol Graal DS would so be, for the rest of my life, my favorite game! xD

Um... touchscreen control?



I find it very easy to type on my DS.

The DS is already home to a few touchscreen keyboard games. It would work out pretty nicely if the screen didn't require the tiny stylus to press the tiny keyboard buttons.
