DraStic (Nintendo DS emulator) OUT NOW for pi2/3!

celly

@AlexMurphy thanks man, guess I just needed to update the script.

AlexMurphy

@celly Yeah. DraStic is brilliant. Have you tried lr-desmume on the Pi? It's great if you love 15-18 fps... Exophase did a great job. I just dislike closed-source projects. Pure jealousy.

It still looks like the Nintendo DS page doesn't list Drastic? https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Nintendo-DS

Hi, Retroboy here. Were you able to resolve issue of black screen when trying to get to config menu in drastic ds? I'm having the same identical problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

i am not sure if anyone having the same issue as i did...
i can exit Nintendo DS game... :(
I press select + start , it won't work...
anyone can show me the way to exit the DS game by controller/joystick....?
Thank in advanced...

@chinjw you need to be able to get into the drastic menu by pressing right on the right analog stick. If you get a black screen then you have the same problem as the rest of us. However if you do have the problem, if you could post your controllers config file on here i could make a working drastic config file for you as i had to edit mine manually.

@chalamannn read my last post. I could help you if you need me to.

@chinjw ok well you are going to have to pick a controller. I can only setup one. The others might work but no guarantees of button order. I recommend the ps3 controller myself. Also is your ps3 controller using regular bluetooth or the sixad driver?

chinjw

@edmaul69 OK， let pick PS3 (sixad driver) ... Thanks ya...

edmaul69

@chinjw alright i will work on it tomorrow.

chinjw

@edmaul69 Thanks for your help my friend...

edmaul69

@chinjw well i got it done. ps button is the quit menu and quit game button. right shoulder is stylus button. left analog is stylus. right analog button is menu. right analog up is view a. right analog right is view b. the views change between side by side screen view, top and bottom screen view, and full screen top screen view. since i have a ps3 controller i tested it out.

@chinjw i forgot to say, unzip this and put the config file in /opt/retropie/configs/nds/drastic/config/ in the config i was able to get the frame counter to stop showing the framerate but without being able to see the menu, i dont know how to make it disappear completely.
