from www.Gamepro.com
"Courtesy of Joystiq, a hack has surfaced that allows for control of a PC through a Nintendo DS. Here is the tutorial from 1emulation.
While there is currently no practical use for this, it is quite cool and opens up a wealth of hack potential for the DS.
Sony's PSP has been subject to numerous hacks over the last year, while the DS has remained mostly protected against unwanted break-ins. We'll just have to wait and see if anything comes of the new hack."
Seems like this is nothing new to the hacker community and I do question it's usefulness (as in why would I use my $150 electronic to work on my $2000 PC?) but it is interesting that the handhelds have moved from being game consoles to baby computers (as I have noted somewhere else). This is why I'm not impressed by the so-called "cool extra features of both the NDS and PSP. All of the music/movie veiwing features are nothing important and simply wastes of power that could be put to better use for say...providing better gameplay experiences. |
