Hi,
is there any way to take screenshots of the games I play on Nintendo DS, like gamespot/ign do? Or to record videos sending the output to PC or TV?

Thank you

well, you can use a digital camera... or maybe a USB/pc camera type thing.. it'll be easier if you have emulation on the PC. So.. if you were taping an N64 game you can probbaly using a record function to tape a video.

I think they actualy made that cable... I'm sure you can find a guide somewhere for it. I heard rumors about a USB charger for the DS, sounds cool :D

Found this one: http://qmark.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008800014212/ProductDetail/Video-game/product_id-1001954796/action-GetProduct.htm
But it says hard wire instalation and do not show how it is installed...

I found about IS NITRO CAPTURE, a hardware unit developed by Intelligent Systems, the team who developed Nitro (DS name while in development). EGN uses Nitro Capture, and I think gamespot and others too. But it is too expensive and not for sale to normal customers, because it is a DS development tool. You plug the game card on NITRO CAPTURE and nitro capture in the ds card slot on DS.

yeah, I was searching about this on Google, where I found this page...

Best solution would be the DS Nitro, which is really expensive.

There is also, as someone mentioned above, the Q-Mark solution, as well as another solution. You'll see both if you <a href="http://www.siliconera.com/2006/08/24/play-your-nintendo-ds-on-your-tv/">click here</a>.
