KORG DS-10 Software Hits Nintendo DS

Though I sold my Nintendo DS a few years ago, the amount of creative homebrew applications for it has gone through the roof. I’ve seen everything from VoIP apps to sequences and drum machines. This latest piece of legal software, KORG DS-10, stays true to the homebrew movement and offers an emulated version of a KORG analog synthesizer.

You’ll be able to control the knobs of the KORG and patch in sounds just like Keith Emerson did back in the day. You can bash keys and create plenty of unique sounds and even trade songs and loops via WiFi. A four-part drum sequencer/machine is also included for creating those fresh beats. Currently, KORG DS-10 is only available in Japan for $46 but importing it or pirating it shouldn’t be difficult.

N5 DS Card Reader Now Available

For those not familiar with the storage device known as N5 let me be the first to tell you: it’s illegal to use this device for downloading Nintendo DS games off the ‘net. Of course, that doesn’t mean you won’t do it. 100-percent of the gamers interested in purchasing the N5 or it’s predecessor the R4 have every intention of downloading a slew of DS games. It’s pretty much its only use aside from loading up shitty Robert Palmer MP3s.

It does have the capability of storing other data types, after all it has a card slot for Micro SD and supports FAT16 or FAT32 filesystems. Don’t be worried about online or multi-card play either, as the N5 supports it so finding people to play against shouldn’t be hard if you grab the Metro-Wardrive with it. A one time fee of 70 bucks only to have access to every DS game in existence? What a steal. Literally.
