The goal is to do things right and fast, akin to blargSNES (but hopefully better). But also to, you know, have a fun challenge :)

melonDS requires BIOS/firmware copies from a DS. Files required:
|
|
|
|
|
* bios7.bin, 16KB: ARM7 BIOS
|
|
|
|
|
* bios9.bin, 4KB: ARM9 BIOS
|
|
|
|
|
* firmware.bin, 256KB: firmware
|

|
Firmware boot requires a firmware dump from an original DS or DS Lite.
|
|
|
|
|
DS firmwares dumped from a DSi or 3DS aren't bootable and only contain configuration data, thus they are only suitable when booting games directly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DS BIOS dumps from a 3DS can be used with no compatibility issues. DSi BIOS dumps should be usable too, provided they were dumped properly.

As for the rest, the interface should be pretty straightforward. If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask, though!
