For some reason, the Lode Runner and Rocket Slime Tank Battle don’t work for me (I use wmb), but the rest is great!

Hello. Nice work.. I work at a game store, and dumped the actual Demo Download station rom. If you’re interested let me know. It’s a 32mb file, and works with m3 under safe mode when patching to SD card.. Any how, great work, and take it easy.

Hey I won a New SuperMario Bros Demo at a Anime and vid games convention…
I would dump it but my M3 mini-sd cant use the dumper.nds file for some reason.
The demo has the entire 1st world… Anyone else played it…
@Davr - email me if u want it.

Wow, I had no idea there were demos for this thing. I had the idea yesterday that someone should probably have ported a graphing calculator to the DS by now. I found your site today, and I’m both pleased and amazed.

I was into the PC demoscene in the 90s, but largely ignored it for the last five or six years. The fact that people still make demos for modern hardware is pretty cool. You should consider presenting at Notacon, which is a tech-and-creativity conference held every spring in Ohio. This year, “Blockparty 2007″ is happening concurrent with Notacon. An honest-to-goodness north-american demoparty!

Calculator software is a little niche of computer culture that most non-students are ignorant of, I’d guess. Portable gaming systems are their own world, and now that they’re fast enough to run emulators for various other systems, things get truly weird. I’d be fascinated to learn more about what happens at the intersection of all these things, from someone knowledgeable and involved. Consider submitting a proposal?

Thanks for showing it to me (and the others who read :P).

I never used GD to that extent (never really did anything with GD besides basic text output in an image and experimental stuff like a chatroom inside an image).

Anyway, I like it (not just the GD parts).

For the PHP script, I wrote it myself. It mainly uses ndstool to extract the data, then I parse the icon manually and convert it to png using GD.

Here’s the main part of the code, it will parse out for a single nds file:
