GDC 2007: Square Enix reveals DS game design tool

Successful, largely Japanese, serious games, such as Brain Training, More Brain Training, English Training, Training of Common Sense, and Cooking Navigation prove that fun and serious functionality can meet. Who wouldn't like an application developed by a reputable software house that enabled you to design your own games? No additional expensive or over-complicated hardware required, no jargon or bothersome coding languages, just a single cartridge that teaches the fundamental principles of game design and provides tools to put those principles into action.

Surely that sounds like the best idea since sliced bread, the wheel and indoor toilets combined?

Square Enix thinks so. At yesterday's Serious Games Summit at GDC, Tadashi Tsushima – a producer from Square's recently formed GB Lab – demo-ed an application for the DS that promises all of the above.

need serious dev tools ^.- Nice to see Square Enix shine onto the DS as much as they have. FFXII: Reverent Wings, FFCC, and It's a wonderful world! Three titles and all of them look really good

Infinite Space: The Story Of A Forgotten Space Opera And Sega's Negligence

I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.

How long until they get sued and it gets taken down? I say a month or 2

Sued for what? It's just an emulator no ROMs are with it. ROMs are easy to get anyway, but with iPhone you can't just copy and paste like Android unless it's jail broken I think. Anyway Nintendo should be more concerned with their ROMs up to torrent for years for all of their concoles, but then again they can't do nothing about it, they never will and I love it. 🤣

As long as it isn't emulating the Switch, it'll be fine.

Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.
