So, I'm trying to play my nintendo DS games on my TV. I've heard there are 2 ways to do this.

1. Open up your DS and install an adapter.
2. Buy a bulky camera to set on one screen.

I know where to buy the second one, but it doesn't look to promising. Does anyone know where I can buy an adapter to install in my DS?

I found the info here.

I wouldn't recommend it. If you go for option one then all warranties are null and void, and option two is just bad (how heavy is that thing, seriously). Just use the DS screens, they're big enough.

I would use the touch screen that is on the DS and watch on the TV.

My warranty is already void from FlashMe I'm sure.

Wouldn't it be a bit pixelly on the big screen? Somehow I doubt that it's at a very high resolution, considering the usage of double screens. And small ones, at that.

Of course, if you really wanted it on your TV, you can wait for the DSWii connection! (Yeah, right, like Nintendo would make that.)

Oh, well. Looks like I will resort to projecting crappy emulators on the TV.

Each screen is 256x192, for a total of 256x384 ... NES and SNES were 256x224 (256x240 on PAL), the Master System was exactly 256x192 itself, so even a single DS screen wouldn't look bad on TV

Fullscreen GameBoy Advance (240x160) on my 27" does have pretty large pixels, though, or would without video filters

Interesting. Although that means it might be a bit awkward to fit on TV, without borders or some part of the TV screen not being used, of course. Otherwise it'd be a little bit stretchy.
