DS Misc > Modding A DS to use keyboard and mouse?

#87518 - Yata^Duck - Wed Jun 14, 2006 7:21 am

Im a pretty avid gamer and as a result im pretty good with my good old mouse and keyboard setup, which got me thinking...

would it be possible to mod a DS to use a mouse and keyboard for games like metroid prime?

If anyone has done this, has heard of this or whatever, please tell me what to do or where to go!

That is pretty cool and would make playing Metroid a bit easier but I kind of like the sylus control for the game, with the exception of the occasional hand cramps that is

What I would like is to use my DS as a keyboard and mouse. I realize this kind of already exists in the Win2DS or Ds2Key but just have it be its dedicated function so I can type from my bed when relaxing.

I'm lazy.
