A guy named B@ndit released this on the GMForm.org (No link, it's full of WAREZ).

What it is, is a version of DSDoom that allows you to select which WAD file you want to load from a selection of up to 40! No more waiting to get to a PC to switch between Doom 1 and Doom 2.

Installation Guide from lolmasta_again

After downloading the 2 parts, extract them into a folder inside your hard drive. You should have a folder named data.
Here is the folder’s structure:
data>Game Menu.nds
data>dsdoom
data>dsdoom>(Loads of folders, which are the wad’s names)
data>dsdoom>prboom.cfg
data>dsdoom>prboom.wad
data>dsdoom>wadsel.ini
data>dsdoom>Tranmap.dat
After making sure you have these, copy the whole data folder in the root of your flashcard.

Adding extra WADs
First, you need to have the wad…
For the example, we’ll use the file “whatever.wad”.
Go to data>dsdoom and make a new folder. Name the folder as you have named the wad (So for the example, the folder is going to be named whatever).
Inside the folder, put your wad.

Now open
data>dsdoom>wadsel.ini
with Notepad or whatever program you use for text editing.

Now, go to the bottom and add this:

[Whatever]
savpath = Whatever/
wad = Whatever/ Whatever.wad

Don’t forget to edit whatever to the name that your wad has
Make sure there’s an empty line between the wads you’ve added into the file.

And now, random analysis

[Whatever] <- Name that will show up in the wad selection menu
savpath = Whatever/ <- Folder that your saves will be saved
wad = Whatever/ Whatever.wad <- Wad path

* If you download the version above this guide (the one that says "DSdoom Emulator:You can 40 Game wads in the wadsel.ini write"), then instead of
data>Game Menu.nds
it will be
data>dsdoom>dsdoom.nds

Downloads
As well as releasing this new version, b@ndit and the other inhabitants of GMForum have kindly converted a few WAD files that work with DSDoom. There were more but all of the link appear to be dead, or packed full of warez (Namely commercial Doom WADs).

A lot of populaur WAD's had been converted for it, Scythe for example, but they were only uploaded to ZShare. I would recommend using one of the other options for downloading.
The Wolf3D pack is amazing. I need to set up a Prboom server and play multiplayer.

They picked a bad WAD because it seems to be pretty laggy. I've played most of thw WADs posted and they run fine.

Have you DLDI'd it? If so, just make sure that you've set out the files just as the instructions say:

Everything in root:\data\dsdoom

What DSDoom needs is mouse control. I need some up an down aiming so bad.
Also jumping. And crouching.

Isn't that how quake came about?

I think the simplicity is one of Dooms strengths. For the time it was very frenzied.
