    Is there any way to make this excellent NDS homebrew work?

      SeaWolf DS is one of the most polished DS homebrew arcade ports I've seen, accurate and beautifully presented with loads of atmosphere, a real enhancement of the coin-op.

      The only problem is it works on almost nothing. The online emulator on that site runs, and it runs in NO$GBA, but nothing else. I've tried it on a real DSi and a real DS, and in lr-desmume and DraStic on the PI, and in iDeaS and the latest DeSmume on PC, and they all just give me a black screen.

      Can anyone tell what's up and whether it can be fixed? Are there any other NDS emus on the Pi? It's a shame to let it be all but lost to history.

      Raspberry Pi 3b and 8GB Raspberry Pi 4, both running Retropie 4.7.1 installed from scratch using Raspberry Pi Imager, with wired keyboard, wireless mouse and double arcade joystick attached.

        You can try and the lr-melonds from RetroPie-Extra repo, for me it's the best Ds emulator:https://github.com/Exarkuniv/RetroPie-Extra . If nothing works, then maybe the game have a protection or your rom have an issue.
