Until Nintendo comes up with apps as wonderful as some of those in the hombrew sector, this campaign on the DSi is crap. The amazing homebrew make me want to use my DS more, and killing them off like this has got to be the second worst idea Nintendo has ever had (the first being their giving Phillips the rights to make Legend of Zelda games).

To all who say "well, it prevents piracy, so losing hombrew is an acceptable casuality", I say "better to let a hundred guilty men do free than to wrongly imprison one innocent man". By killing support for these cards, in a campaign against piracy, is Nintendo not assuming that all who use such cards are pirates? What ever happened to "innocent until proven guilty", a cornerstone of democracy and humanity?

I think that Nintendo should either end their weak attempts at "stopping piracy" (something NO other company has EVER done), or at least open its mind to the ideas of superb homebrew developers who can't possibly afford licensing with Nintendo. These people do this for FREE, on their OWN TIME, and put so much HARD WORK AND EFFORT into their apps that many could be mistaken for professional designs.

Possibly Nintendo could implement some way for these small developers to have their software available on more legitimate channels, such as the DSi Shop? Heck, if these sort of apps were in the Shop, we wouldn't be hearing about how the DSi Shop sucks. I realize that it would be unwise to simply open the floodgates to anyone, but perhaps Nintendo could put a little effort into developing a system to get these things included in the Shop. So far, Nintendo has proven itself lackluster at best in any area concerning the internet. This could bring them out of their slump.

That's what the DSi Browser is for.

ALSO:

Before anyone says it, I realize that Animanitee has a better, Nintendo-made counterpart, Ugomemo / Flipnote Studio. But as with so many other things, Nintendo has failed to get this out of Japan, despite it being horrendously easy, and considering just how much time they've had since Japanese release.]]>Aug 14th 2009 11:11AM
