Well, my break is ending and I actually did manage to implement a few things in Highscore this week. First, Victoria enabled WFC support in melonDS, so now we very technically have netplay. Kinda (it does work, setting WFC up is just a nightmare - it involves finding WFC settings and changing DNS server to one of the third party ones, then exchanging friend codes - assuming it will connect - all of the available WFC services were rather flaky in my testing and would randomly fail to connect) This also involved adding shutdown support, since erasing WFC settings reboots the system. This in turn involved reworking how snapshots work, but we'll get to that - let's list DS-specific changes first. Next, closing the lid is now supported. Incl. things like saving snapshots while it's closed. Finally, mic input was broken since october. It was broken in a way that Spirit Tracks' mic test looked fine, but blowing out candles in Phantom Hourglass wasn't working, so that's how I hadn't noticed that. Fixed. So - I think the main major DS feature missing now is ability to insert a GBA cart? And wireless multiplayer ofc, but that's a separate can of worms.
