DS Homebrew Menu
The current devkitPro contains a hidden gem of an application a Homebrew Menu application that allows some of the newer features to be used correctly (nitrofs file system compatibility one of them that I am aware of), and while it’s nice it’s not the best looking application to show off the features of the DS. I’d put a screen shot here to show you what it looks like as there is no emulators that emulate FAT SD cards correctly at the moment, so the following is what it sort of looks like (it is in text mode on the DS.)

So yeah it’s crappy XD. Anyway what I’m hopefully going to do is a nice GUI for it, something along the lines of the DSi’s new interface. I’ve already got the basic sprites designed, and a quick test with the sprites put at static positions looks ok, so far. I’ve still got some work to do on getting the application to work correctly. Since the bottom screen is used only for the application the top screen can be used for other things, at the moment I’m looking at putting a calendar on there along with some of the features of the old DS firmware (Profile name, time, etc).
Since the current version is very limited (it’s static information at the moment) a working version may possibly take a few days to get right before I have something that works.
