Hi, I bought a Nintindo Ds Lite yesterday and a couple of games, I also bought a Games N Music pac to let me play games that the package said you could get from the internet , put my music on and play vidieos. I am trying to fined homebrewed .nds files (preferably puzzles and stradagy) but can't fined any. All i have found are sites talking about getting homebrewed games but none that acualy offer them. Could some one point me in the right direction? thanks

I've used Games 'n' Music before. You'll run into one very big problem there: data management. There's no way to save or load files while using it, and I can only hope they'll fix that in a later version, if one is to come.

But on topic, I have quite a few NDS homebrews, and I'd be making my own if I could only find the tools for programming them! My favorite pre-packed game is Tales of Dagur. Very well made! Beat it in an hour!

I hate trying to open folders on it you have to tap it like 15 times before it will take. As far as making your own i know they use C and C++ to make them but have no clue how to turn it into a .NDS file. , I found two games on the net for it, both of them freeze up on level two, then i tried downloading the warcaft towerdefence but it wont install right.

Well, you're right on the C++ part, but I too don't know where to find a DS compiler. My suggestion is wait a bit, and I'll ask Teric if he knows what the guys at Nintendo are using. I'm pretty sure he's talked to some of them.
