I've been looking for a little ebook/text file viewer for the DS, for use in the same way as the Brain Age game works, so I've put a little something together, and this is where I'm at.

Currently it is programmed to read a book that is hardcoded into the nds file, but by later tonight it will be reading .txt files straight off a memory card in the GBA slot! :)

Was there a release for this? It seems like a great idea and I would love to be able to read my text files on the DS in this format.

I did actually nearly finish this and I've used it to read text files on the DS. It works lovely :)

If anybody here wants to test it, PM me!

Hi

I'm really sorry to bump this thread, but I can't send PM's (New account?) and I really, really want to get hold of this reader.

Its not just me. I'm the admin on gbatmw: http://gbatmw.net/index.php?topic=1212

A 3 page thread full of people looking for something like this.

Anyway. If anyone has this file...please, please can you send it to me. Anything but rapidshare, or email it to leorampen (at...) gmail (...dot**) com

So...this has been abandoned?

Because this hasn't been spoken of forever.

It really hasn't been that long. Only a little over 2 weeks. Compare that to the last gap of posts which was a month and a half(8/2 - 9/17) and it actually seems kind of short.

No - it hasnt been abandoned at all. I've recently had a bigger, faster memory stick for my DS and some support for other storage cards (CF, etc) as I was only ever testing it on the SD cards for supercard.
