A PC 80286 emulator for Nintendo DS. Its purpose is to allow you to run old DOS games on your Nintendo DS game console.

DSx86 supports DSi mode, while DS2x86 is a version of DSx86 recompiled and improved according to Supercard DS Two capacity.

DSx86 It was presented in the GBAtemp Homebrew Bounty 2011 (DSi, 1st place; SCDS, 2nd place).

Features

  • 80286 processor, including the protected mode features.
  • MCGA, CGA, EGA and VGA graphics.
  • SoundBlaster (including AdLib-compatible FM sounds) sound card.
  • 83-key US keyboard.
  • Mouse.

Installation

Note: DSx86 does not have an inbuilt command interpreter (or shell), so you need to download a DOS program that provides the command shell features. Currently the only supported shell is 4DOS version 7.50, freeware by Rex Conn & JP Software. The only file you absolutely need is the 4DOS.COM program, but if you have space on your SD card you can download the auxiliary files as well.

Download the current version (DSx86 or DS2x86).

In the root of your card create a folder called data, within that create a folder called dsx86 (e.g. c:\data\dsx86\).

Copy DSx86.ini (right click save as) to the dsx86 folder you created above.

Extract and run dsx86config.zip in the dsx86 folder that you created.

Copy 4DOS to /data/dsx86/4dos/ directory (/data/dsx86/, /4dos/ and root directory also work).

Extract your games to anywhere on your card (best to use a short folder name without spaces).

User guide

Use DIR (list directory) and CD (change directory) to browse to your game folder then type the name of the .exe to run the game.
