Holy crazy coders! I’ve seen 3 DS homebrew music apps in just the last week. What is going on? This “cellular automation” app, Glitch DS, seems the wackiest, but the Protein DS app blows my mind for awesomely simple and therefore beautiful UI. Anything with dots rules.
Glitch DS:
Protein DS (i think the person is filming under a waterfall):
There is something cute about having to load the software from the card and then take the card out to insert your MIDI interface. It reminds me of having to boot from floppys.
But at least not a rickroll. Anywho once you click the buy link it comes up with the prank message. Believe you me it’s not a far-fetched game idea and I’m not ashamed in the slightest to say i’d buy 20 copies in a heartbeat. The video is awesome, go checkit!
Originally i became aware of this concept from the MIT Whiteboard Physics demo. So how badass is it to have it in your pocket for some hyper-creative Line Rider-esque (although Line Rider is coming to the DS soon) sketching? Very!
Out of pimpin’ control. I don’t know if i am more amazed that Nintendo is admitting there are creative adults that use (ie. have been hacking their own substitutes for ages) the DS for more than games or that a big name like Korg got involved, especially using one of their classic synths: the MS-10. So, whatever, this is what happens with Mothra and Godzilla start dating. This product is interesting because Korg is starting to make their adult things more like toys and Nintendo is trying to make their toys more adult.
