yeah, now all we need is the working emulator (which may take a while) to run it.

The Sonic DS rom was fake, I'm pretty sure that was confirmed. And if it WASN'T fake, it was an extremely bad dump.

I find it funny that a demo (which usually wouldn't count in a release chart, I think) is #1.

I'm sure the rom will help emulator authors, but I still think we're a little ways off unless we get a Christmas surprise.

I would be surprised if "Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt" was the first game that can be emulated. Since it's usually the 2D games that get's emulated correctly first.

Well, I could see it being supported early. With glitchy graphics.

I'll take your word on SM64, although none of the release sites list it as being dumped yet - then again, updates can be quite slow today.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Mr. Driller: Drill Spirits is the first one playable.

Hopefully the DS doesn't get emulated for a long, long time. I mean, it's not even out yet in some places.

From what I heard the Sonic DS rom is not real. And even if it is, there would be no way to prove that it is

But then what's the 50MB I downloaded?

dan, why not?

Didn't stop the GBA from being emulated quickly... True, the first emu's weren't that great but that's to be expected.

Mainly because cheap bastards will pirate the games and play them on emulators than actually go out and buy the damn things. Like with the GBA

But heh, I really don't want to start yet another pointless debate on that subject.

Didn't exactly hurt the GBA's sales though. (Then again, when you have a monopoly... )

I think the PSP will be pretty secure emulation-wise (for a while) but then again PS2 emulation's moving at a steady rate.

I've read (in several places) that the SM64DS rom is FAKE... but as far as I can tell, the First Hunt Demo is real. Too bad there's no working emulator yet... oh well...

Random bytes, or goatse style pictures repeated 5000 times.

It does have a fake header, but that's it from what I heard.

And 50MB would DEFINITELY be an extremely bad dump. The 16MB First Hunt rom seems more up to par.

UGH! Im too lazy too buy a DS and I need to try it! But no stores have them to try around here and noone I know has one! WHY CANT THEY HURRY UP AND MAKE THIS EMULATOR! There probobly drinking NesTea while watching Baywatch not working on the emulator half the time. Ha! This reminds me of a story I heard about Bungies webcam showing them work on Halo2 but they where playing 4 player Mario Kart: DD instead and like 400 viewers saw it. lol!

It's the response like this that give emulation a bad name. If you want a DS emulator THAT badly, make it yourself. Otherwise, shut the fuck up.

Well, the biggest N64 games was around 32 MB. And thoose games was quite big gameplay wise.

Apparently DS ROMs are encrypted also, so emulating them will be even harder. Yay.

I wont be surprised if we never emulate Ds at all. If we cant create emulators that can emulate a PS2 AND it uses cd's so it would seem to be easier, why would we be able to emulate a DS?
