Been a long good while since I've made a post on GBATemp publicly, but I just wanted to stop by and express the same thanks many others have in this thread! I absolutely despised how blurry the DS games look on the 3DS because of the filtering Nintendo used. It was enough to the point where I'd usually use another DS model to play the games I wanted to play despite how nice the form factor is of the 3DS and how flash carts/TWiLight Menu++ made the 3DS a really convenient 'all-in-one' system. It was the homebrew I was wishing would happen for ages. Great to see it's a reality now, and all the options are really appreciated!

Tested the patcher myself and went with Sharpen Test 1. Super Mario 64 DS already looks so much more crisp.

Thank you again, Sono!

CTR_Redshift will be included in the next version of the patcher, which is expected to come out in 1-3 weeks.

(white balance is mucked up by the camera, but to my eyes it's much more red)

Fantastic! Excellent work! There are so many great DS romhacks I've been missing out on because I can't handle the blue light eye burn. But technically you will need to call this one TWL_Redshift, no? :P

No, because it runs on the ARM11 :P The DS hardware doesn't know anything about this.

What's the point of that though? Something for Virtual Boy fans?

Why not...

But no, it's to filter out some blue lights for those whose eyes are irritated by it, or to prevent the prevention of melatonin generation due to the brain still thinking that it's not past 17h yet.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
