So I'm one of those 4 people who still use a vita daily, and long story short I was messing around CSE2's source code when I found out that VITASDK does have a SDL2 library and so I thought "what would happen if I rewrite the CMakeLists file so that it would use the vita's libraries? no way this is gonna work lol."

...it worked first try

so anyway the next day (today) I got to work on fixing whatever quirks it had (the controls being awkward, saving not working due to it trying to write to a read-only partition) and it's pretty much done.
I'm not gonna bother adding all the fancy stuff like widescreen 'cause I don't know jack about how the rendering backend works and the last time I tried to decipher it it made me want to blow my brains out it so I'll just leave it as-is.
EDIT: Never mind, I actually managed to get widescreen working.

More proof that we are in a simulation. Nothing ever works right first try, has to be a glitch in the Matrix.
I was about to scream "Lies, damned lies!" when I first read it, but I remembered that I too had "compiles-on-first-try" lately, so maybe we are nearing the end of times.

Thanks Iruzz, best CS vanilla experience ever, had nearly completed the game on xbox but framerate wasn't as smooth and consistant as this.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
