DS development > My DS button mod

Why didn't anyone do this sooner? I think the A and B buttons on the DS are difficult to use for GBA games so I installed a switch on the bottom of my DS that lets me use the X button as the B button in GBA games. Download the video to check it out.

You can choose which screen you wanna use. That's up to you.
