OpenTTD DS (Alpha 6) (NDS Game Port)

OpenTTD DS is a port of OpenTTD for Nintendo DS.

OpenTTD is a clone of the Microprose game “Transport Tycoon Deluxe”, a popular game originally written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features.

OpenTTD is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2.0.

Changes:

based on r12452 (internal rev1926)
the NDS port now has a different toolbar, more suitable for the small screen
for better access with the touchscreen the toolbars have been moved to the bottom screen
a fully customizable on-screen keyboard has been added (click on a text field to open it)
a newsticker display on the lower screen has been added
some windows have been adapted for the NDS screen (more will follow in future releases):
– intro menu
– game creation menu
– minimap
– build vehicle window
when building depots and stations only one preview image is shown which you can rotate by clicking on it
information regarding accepted cargo when building a station is displayed as icons now
switching screens (left shoulder button L) now only switches the windows
many windows (e.g. confirmation dialogs) are now centered on the bottom screen
the amount of free ram (in kb) is displayed in the middle of the status bar. This is only a temporary change to help with tracking down a memory leak
additionally you can view some memory information by pressing the B button
always use new global pathfinder (NPF). the original TTD pathfinder crashes due to too many recursions
fixed loading screen glitch

Changes:

* Amazing new speedhacks to make some games run faster
* Fixed some graphical garbage while rom menu scrolls out
* Rom menu no longer shows game codes of GBC games

Shooting Watch DS v2.2 (NDS Game)

Shooting Watch DS has been updated!

Changes:

Added Lode Runner skin
Built with latest tool chain.
SoundFx and music now use AS_Lib as with latest PA Lib beta.
Save file can now be in any directory. As default the game searches for the location of a previous save then location of the nds file. If neither are found (if you rename the nds file), the save file will be created in the root directory but can be moved afterwards.
WiFi transfer now retrieves rank correctly (Up to 100, was only retrieving rank 10 maximum before).
When you win on the slots, you can now hold A or B button to make the coins count up twice as fast. (Fixed 4 slot mode, only worked in 3 Slot before).
Can hold B button to make text scroll faster in the shop.
After playing Shoot mode, the rank shown is now how you ranked for your last go rather than your best rank overall.
