I guess if you want to figure out "what is this account about", this is one-picture-tells-you-all as best as I can have.
An ongoing debugging session, featuring ARM disassembly, linux laptop, Nintendo DS showing a guru meditation screen, the desmume DS emulator paired with ddd debugger in the laptop and a notepad with top pens to write down hex numbers from the DS blue screen, investigate and all... Ah, all of this to find a bug in a little platformer of mine, inspired by '90s gold titles design and aesthetics.

I've revamped the GBA article with new info about backwards compatibility, hidden modes in the PPU (which I suspect they were meant for a stereoscopic mode, a la 3DS) and the wonders of the Link cable. This is to prepare for an upcoming book release. www.copetti.org/writings/con...

I tried a low-resolution aesthetic with this pixel scene. If you have any suggestions or thoughts, I'm all ears! I'd be as happy as getting an apple if you leave a comment!

On this day (November 21st) 21 years ago, we were all introduced to the dual-screened wonder that is the Nintendo DS!

With a library of close to 3,500 games, 4 different model designs, and so many system variants across those designs, its two screens ushered in a whole new era for Nintendo.

If I can use the #Cloudflare outage to point out that it makes all your website unreachable with my stylus device because ... hah ... I cannot "approach the checkbox with a mouse and click it like a human" :P

Mastery #80 - IkachanDS [Homebrew] (Nintendo DS)
Apparently this is related to Cave Story. It has terrible controls and combat. So floaty and easy to run into things. Feels like a knock off Starfy. =^]

I love when #demoscene escapes to the real world. I'm even going to excuse the use of 6502 opcodes to illustrate the first stunning x86 demo ;)
