While waiting for graphics on my main project I am fooling around with another idea so I can learn more about DS programming. I am going to get a motion detection unit for the DS at ndsmotion.com. I think a labyrinth game would be awesome. You know those wooden labyrinths, right? Well, here's what one night of playing with PAlib created.

You guys aren't going to see too many new screens.  Right now since I have the hardware to run the stuff (finally) I noticed we are in a new era for DS homebrew.  Also, I need to get graphics from my friend yet.

You can see some development pics here.

Any DS owners that read this if you can run homebrew I'd like a tester.  Until I get the equipment to run my own homebrew all I can do is use emulators right now to test my app.

Last night was a blast.  Oshkosh has this thing called Waterfest.  Every thursday in summer there is an outdoor concert.  Being that my compaby sponsered last night I got to go free.  The bands that played last night were Three Beers ‘til Dubuque, St. Paul, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.   What an awesome time. 

rabbermasterflash and I have started a new team intended for the GRAW ladder matches.  We are calling ourselves the BYOB - Bringing You Oldman Beatdowns.  If there is anyone that wants to join (that is reading my blog) send me  a message.  Ive sent out a couple of invites to those who are interested.  If we do get enough members for a team I will look into a centralized comminication area like an IRC channel, forum, AIM, MSN, etc...

First, the router.  I am holding off on it.  i picked up a Netgear WGT634U.  It has tons of Kamikaze OpenWRT support.  I found it pretty cheap so I decided to get it.  It has a USB port and mini-pci slot.  That means it has tons of expanding capabilities.  I will be using it as a print server too so I can print from my laptop without having my desktop on.  The linksys will just become a bridged AP for the 360 (for now).

Woohoo. ;; I received the SD card and socket from http://www.sparkfun.com. ;; I will have an extra 512 megs of space. ;; Hmmm, unlimited log file space...

Hell yeah!  Its a bit expensive but I can finally do full analog with the PC version of NFL Blitz that I run on my arcade cabinet :)
I dont know when I am going to be able to pic one of these up.  My arcades computer is toast.  For some reason I can not plug more than 1 USB device otherwise it freezes.
