Support for Nintendo DS
Hello, first off, I want to say that I really appreciate your work. It works flawlessly. Do you think in some future your could add support for Nintendo DS? I assume it's quite some work, but it would be really appreciated.
Thanks, I'll take a look at adding this.
We probably need a group of 4 people to tackle Nintendo DS. It's a huge set, I would help do it.......but we would need other volunteers.
@BlackrosesXI would you be willing to help?
I've been an a-hole and probably didn't really look that hard or saw the number of entries and that was as far as I looked. If you want I can do a very course matching with my current workflow to get you started. Similar to what I did on some of the other platforms, but they were much smaller and the fallout was ~5 games. If this is much larger it may be dozens.
No rush SSELPH, this would be one of the final systems I think we would scrape due to the volume of titles, I believe 1400. I think others need to step up as well to help.
I did a naive match which covers ~80% of the games in thegamesDB (~750/950) but only ~30% of the No-Intro hashes (~2000/7000). It will be a start but far from finished.
@sselph Great job!
This platform will be one of the last ones I will probably get to because DS games are so difficult to play without native hardware. Hopefully someone who has interest in this platform picks it up and assists in mapping hashes to TGDB.

What do you think @stevetb ?
@robertybob - This will be one of the systems I am going to pass on. Hopefully someone else is interested and picks it up.
