My first (yellow) DMG should be arriving soon. It isn't modded and is just a normal DMG. I've been sseing a lot of mod posts, and I am wondering which mod I should do first, based on ease and the margin of mistakes. I've never modded anything before, so, yeah. What do you guys think?

Re: LSDJ on Ds lite (8 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I'm using LSDJ on the DS Lite. It works fine, doesn't sound as good, but it works properly (although sometimes I have to press the L bumper to stop the tune after pressing start). Honestly, it's a good start before you get your proper DMG. I am actually waiting for my first to arrive. But anyway. The Silph Scope is right. I'm using an r4 because I bought one to use with roms. My cousin sent me LameBoy and I'm now using LSDJ with it. It's doable. PM me and I can send you LameBoy.

Interesting!
So why would you need more than 3 gameboys?
It's personal preference. It just depends on what you use them for and stuff. I don't necessarily have a bunch of DMGs (I only have one), but I have a GBA SP, DS Lite, and DS XL and one DMG. They all get good use (mostly gaming). As you have seen further up, people want to mod a lot, and others just like to collect them. You might only need one, but others may need many, just because they want them.

All I know is that with experience, the bright red backlight does make everything much easier to see, and is also really useful if you want to use it with a DMG in dark light.
Take into account colour blindness though when you buy (if that sort of thing affects you), because I've tried out red backlights and found them to be the most difficult to see hands down. Green/blue/white are really bright and clear.
It really just depends on personal preference and experience. Green seems to be really clear as well, but it also depends on the make of the backlight.

Seriously guys, how does it taste?
Well, judging by the way that the GameBoy is made, and based on how the frying is done, it would most likely taste like burnt plastic and electric shocks. But that's my opinion. I'm sure that if you are used to eating other materials like glass and old tires, you might find this a delightful little snack when salt and lemon is added. Enjoy dude. I hope you like electric shocks and pointy/thin wires.

I have actually settled for Shit-Talker. It is quite basic to use and is really all I need. And I don't really know much about vocal anatomy.

First design your logos. The less colours, the less expensive for the inks. You could make them into stickers using home sets that you can buy, but I don't know much about that stuff.

That's a cool idea. Gotta try that sometime.

I was really pissed at the time of putting together the chip, so I just continued what I had.

Topic: Music Project (2 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)
I have made a demo of a tune that I am supposed to make in music. I used LSDJ for the 8 bit and background. Then in GarageBand, I edited it and added some extra instruments.
This isn't entirely chiptune! There are other instruments added due to the specifications of the project.
This is just a little bit of the basics of the song, I am hoping to make it longer in a few days. I just need some advice from the "professionals" before I go ahead and complete the song. Please rant about it as much as you like, stuff that should be edited and all that. I need it, because I have to pull the whole thing together in a few days, and I don't want it to sound like crap.
Oh, and don't complain about the chip. I'm a beginner.
Here's the link:

Topic: Voice Simulation Help (13 replies, posted in General Discussion)
So for a music project, I need to fit lyrics with chip. I don't want to sing either. So. I was listening to "This is the Hook" by BSOD, and Steve and Joel use some form of voice simulation program to get a robotic sounding voice. Can anyone help with this? I need some form of freeware where I can control the timing of the voice. I have a link for the song: This is the Hook BSOD
Thanks

Re: How do I fix noise on the audio coming from the on-switch of my DMG? (8 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I have seen other people open the tri-wing with a small flat screwdriver. You could try that. Although it will probably strip the screw. Anyway. When you can, you should open it. I had a search and I can't find any other internet threads on this topic, so it is difficult to pinpoint this. I also am not much help with this anyway. I'm getting my first DMG in a couple of weeks, and I have never taken a look inside of one. Just remember that you may be sidetracked when trying to mod, due to problems you may face. It wouldn't hurt to spend some extra hours just sussing everything out, making sure that everything works properly.
