Nintendo DS (Lite / Phat)

greendocumented

Evidence status

Documented, not bench-verified

The toolchain path and proposed milestones are documented. No emulator run or physical Nintendo DS bench result is claimed.

Documented means the research path and planned work are public. It does not mean firmware compiled, a simulation ran, or physical hardware passed at the bench.

Documented entry point

Dual-screen ARM handheld, refreshed toolchain.

BlocksDS provides a current open SDK and a documented migration path from devkitARM. This case file will evaluate whether the experimental community blocksds-sys bindings can support a bounded Rust demo without presenting that path as established or verified.

Planned work

What the case file proposes next

Dual-screen Rust demo
GBATEK translation
Emulator-first via melonDS
