I'm posting this on behalf of someone called SoulAnger. He's the developer of a new OS for the DS called MENUdo. It's an in-development fully functional app that runs on flashcards. I say OS, because it has come a long way and resembles something of a mobile phone OS in terms of functionality. Actions speak louder than words though, so here's the latest video showing the app in action-

As you can see, the app really pushes the DS hardware like no other DS app has yet. There are all sorts of impressive scrolling, scaling, tilting, rotating, and transparency effects. That's just a small part of what it is though, but it really makes it feel professional and well made. Especially impressive within the confines of DS hardware. Reminds one of the iPhone OS. It's fully skinnable too, with lots of different themes to use.

I hope this is within the rules to post. I wanted to mention that more will be revealed in an upcoming chat on a site related to piracy scene release. The chat is called "Tempcast". No roms are hosted on the site, so i hope it's ok to post this-

A tempcast is being held today with new info about it. SoulAnger will be interviewed and will give his thoughts and plans about his work.

MENUdo has not yet been released outside of private beta. I have tested it myself from an early build last year, it has progressed even further by now. Bug fixes are currently being made. Hopefully, an official release can be made soon. It should be noted that menudo CAN be made to boot commercial roms, on Supercard DSONE in fact, when used with ysmenu and the triple loader. I won't go into how to do it, as it hasn't been released yet. When it has though, it can be another alternate firmware for the DSONE.

Fixed the video for you. Looks cool and all, but for F sakes why do these ppl always have to play "DJ" when they make youtube video and add shitty music?

looks good but has to work on ALL cards or its pointless no one that has a faithful reliable card will want to get a different card if it does not work properly on theirs!
