🥳📢After 4 years of hard work, we (LNH-team) are proud to announce that DSpico, our open-source flashcart for the DS(i), is officially released!
🌐 Find all the details on our website!: https://t.co/3Agf7idXWW
@cyothevile Totally agree. I thought about this a while ago. Bottom screen gaming on TV makes no sense if you constantly have to use touch screen. For touch-based games, not being able to tap exactly where you want is frustrating. Using it like a PC mouse, as in that video, hurts gameplay
@tetomizuki No, I have no affiliation with that IR version, and neither does any member of the LNH Team
There may be different hardware and software versions of DSpico circulating. However, everything official related to DSpico can be found in this repository: https://t.co/m3ofdOmZJr
Just a reminder: The official DSpico website is https://t.co/3Agf7idq7o Other websites claiming to be DSpico official website are scam, don't click on them !
LNH team does not sell DSpico
There's a website that appears in Google search results called dspico (dot) net that claims to be official and it's a scam. If you can help me report that web in Google search results, I'd appreciate it. In the next link
Thank you!

@natalie_thenerd Amazing work!!
Do you have any pictures of the other side of the PCB? I’m curious to see it
Was it difficult to do the reballing on the CPU and RAM?
@duneposter I didn't finish it because I lost motivation. But there's someone who did finish it, and it covers most DS models :

@SourceK_mnst You did a great job too! I know it’s really rewarding when you start seeing results
I’m still not sure what the most convenient way to have a DS consolizer would be, but I think just outputting the top screen while keeping the bottom one would be the most logical way to play
🎮Which of these projects are you looking forward to the most?
• GigaDS: A Nintendo DSlite with real bigger screens
•DS Lite Consolizer: A consolized DS Lite to play on your TV like a home console
•DSi HD Out: A DSi mod with HD video output for TVs or video capture devices
Thinking about DS consolizer 👀
At first, I thought about outputting both screens + an external wireless controller
But two external screens may be pointless. Most games need a touchscreen, so use the DS bottom screen as the controller and output only the top screen?
Thoughts?
My dream is finally becoming a reality
Nintendo DS for HDMI displays. And yes, I'll be making it open source for everyone! 🔓
Coming soon... still a work in progress!
@dorian_klees I understand. It's true that the HDMI cable can be a nuisance. But also, if the controller needs to have a screen, the image has to be transmitted via some cable. And I don't want the cable to be custom or uncommon
I need to think about it

@dshaynie For that reason I thought a screen on the DS controller was necessary, so I just thought of something like the Wii U, in this case using the lower part of the DS Lite and only taking video from the upper screen
@dorian_klees Hi! I’m not sure I understood you. I think you mean putting all the DS Lite hardware + HDMI converter in a separate box, and having a PCB with the screen and controls connected by a cable?
But in the end, you still have a cable, right? Unless I made it wireless
