Access Your Computer with your DS

Today I will talk about how to use a process called VNC to control and view your computer from your DS. This is a bit more complicated than previous things I have shared with the community, but I hope it will interest you anyway.

First, you need a way to load the program on your DS. I cannot guarantee compatiblity of this with the DSi, but you might be able to homebrew that easier since it has an SD card slot built in. But as for the original Nintendo DS, and the DS Lite, you would need a Flash Cart like this. Remember, this will also allow you to run other DS homebrew, like Emulators for retro gaming, and it might even let you run backups.


After you do that, you'll need the program for your DS, which is named PointyRemote. This includes a server for your computer. So after you have all of the above, you might have to tweak some IP address settings and then you'll be good to go! (Refer to the Readme included in the zip for operating instructions.)

You should get a result like this:
