No, it would need to be much more powerful than the N64 to be able to emulate it successfully. The DS isn't even powerful enough to run N64-level games natively.

That looks really, really good for a home-brew project. I wonder how hot it gets after a few hours?

That looked cool until he flipped it over, revealing a fully exposed 12x GD-ROM reader on the underside of the case. This seems downright dangerous and is bound to destroy the motor by accident with any amount of use.

Jesus... in the Kamikaze, he built a BREAKOUT MULTI-CONTROLLER BOX that uses headphone cable to allow you to plug in real 64 controllers. This is just a bit crazy.

He mentions in the video that he has a cover for it, but it's not finished yet. The Gamecube portable, on the other hand, leaves the disc exposed. He said it doesn't spin fast enough to injure you, but I'd be more concerned about damaging it.

Exposed high speed CD drives that pose an injury risk are the new force-feedback controllers.
Well, it will resist movement to some degree because it is basically a one axis gyroscope.

I wonder how the disc systems would perform on a bumpy car ride. My guess: Not so well.
They're very pretty, though.

Do you reckon it would be possible to get an N64 emulator running on a DS using a flash card? there are already a few N64 ports
