I finally got the SNESDS and NESDS to work on MMD.

[kcajblue]

and youre doing a good job of doing it.

Yay! I got NESDS working too. XD

But if you put more than one game in a .nds file, it has to be under 2MB, I think, otherwise it won't play. Personally, I put every one of my NES roms each in seperate .nds files.

Now to try SNESDS.

[sonikku88]

Well, I managed to get SNESDS to work, there are a lot of issues. The biggest being that it won't play games over 2MB, which I am gutted about because I can't play Super Mario All-Stars.

Will this always be a problem, or is it something that will be fixed in future?

Oh, and is sound normal? Does SNESDS play the music and SFX in some games? Because I got sound. Not sure if that's unusual. I doubt it is.

[kcajblue]

dont double post. use the edit button.

[sonikku88]

Sorry, kcajblue.

So can anyone answer my questions?

[Amethyst]

Yeah, I think sound is normal.

Too bad you can't play games larger than 2 Megs because Clock Tower is slightly over 2. BUT BE GRATEFUL!!! Just kidding. At least we gots us something.

Sorry, man. Zelda don't work. The game screws up the second the 3D Triforce appears. Mega Man works OK, though. Except for conversation parts.

Jesus, I was getting pissed off whenever I read how someone got the Max Media Dock running NES and SNES games yet when I did it all I got was NO ROMS FOUND.

Well, I was downloading the NESDS and SNESDS from the download links offered on the homepage of this site but for some reason those downloaded files always gave me the dreaded NO ROMS FOUND message after an eternity of gray and white screens. In a frustrated act I went to this site:

http://www.cs.utah.edu/~tew/snesDS/

(I'm assuming it's the homesite of NESDS and SNESDS) and decided to try out the files from there.

To my surprise it worked!

ive done all this and im still getting the NO ROMS FOUND message ... are there step by step instructions on this somewhere?

1.Download SnesDS and ndstool.exe.
2.Unzip SnesDS to a folder and put ndstool.exe in the same folder.
3.Run make_nds.bat.
4.Insert 1 Snes game file using the folder icon and click save.
5.Make sure the NDS file is under 2 MB and copy it to a directory on the MMD.
6.Double-tap to run.

Also some CF cards are just plain incompatible with Nes/SnesDS. If thats the case than you are out of luck. You can try the test file I made with some NES homebrew at: http://home.comcast.net/~swbfii/nesDS.nds and see if that is the problem.
