ROM hacks are also compatible (providing the unmodified ROMs don’t have issues). A compatibility list can be found here, which will give you an idea on what has been tested. I would recommend checking for more information about the required games, including the languages the game supports (it doesn’t tell you the method of how it loads the language, but you can easily find out by using the DS Emulator).īeware that not all Nintendo DS roms are going to work, or require a certain game for the rom to be injected into. The Wii U is setup in a similar way to the original Nintendo DS, and will use the required language that is set in the Wii U settings: This option was mainly used in European releases, but there are American and Japan releases that do this as well.
However, some games will run the game in the required language that is based on the language that has been set in the BIOS. Since the Nintendo DS is a region free device, it means you can inject any Nintendo DS (.nds) rom you like, regardless of the Game ID inside the game.
