I wanted to play the Pokemon rom hack on my DS. Spent ages and it won’t work. Tried DSi and same thing. Found there’s a newer version of an emulator that might run on the hardware. Downloaded the build tool chain, setup a whole load of stuff, but it didn’t build because versions of blah blah blah. So I tried on my 3DS. Worked straight away after installing the software. Runs natively and works great. Just doesn’t have the nostalgia of my original DS. It’s all because it’s based upon Emerald, which is a bigger game and causes all sorts of issues.

I don’t know why I bother. I’ll probably quit it after 10 mins.

I was looking in the game cartridge holder and saw how many Pokemon games I have for 3DS and Switch that I’ve never played. Don’t think I’ve played one since the DS back in 2013 but bought every game since. Perhaps I should play one…also not going to happen. I did see Pokemon Z-A Legends is due this year. Probably buy it. Switch 2 also.
