Hi to all, I'm rtnario, a recent fan of Cave Story XD

Ever since I got Cave Story, I played it, and on the same day I finished it. It was incredible, but enough of that, I'm here to discuss my idea.


"DOKUTSU MONOGATARI PORT to S60 DEVICES"

What's S60? This is the Symbian Operating System that most all modern Nokia mobile phones use. There already are many different applications and games made for this OS; including alarm clocks, flashlights, portable Flash Players (yes, .SWF), different game genres, GBA/SNES/GBC/NES emulators, even portable Doom, Pocket DDR and also the WIP that is portable QUAKE. Yes, I meant the ID Software 3-D FPS Quake.

If it has the ability to "emulate" all of this, why not Cave Story as well? Cave Story's already been ported to many devices, including the DS, PSP and even the freaking Wii. Why not one for mobiles, since it seems to have all the requirements of doing so?

So here's a challenge to anyone who knows their Symbian programming, and is a Cave Story fan. Sadly, I may have this idea, but not the knowledge of a programmer. I hope someone will make my suggestion a reality...for it will benefit the entire Dokutsu Monogatari fanbase as well.

Cave Story was never ported to the Wii, it was ported to Linux, GP2X, X-Box, PSP, Mac, and DS (not yet finished). There was to be a gamecube port (which would have worked on the wii assumably), but it was abandoned due to aaiiee's work becoming wiiware developers and disallowing him to do gamecube homebrew. There was also a GBA port but that later became the DS port.

@andwhyisit
My mistake. What you said was the complete and accurate information of Cave Story ports. And thanks for that ^^

@freezit4
My suggestion for you is to get a new phone that can at least transfer files from PC to Phone, and can play MIDIs. I'll gladly supply you with Cave Story remixes. =D

@jcys810
S40? Aww...you're missing out on a lot of S60 apps...but still Symbian anyway, so that's okay. We hope for the same thing, and that's why I give my idea. ^_^

Oh, and mobile org players? We'll need someone who's an expert programmer, and a big Cave Story fan. He could probably handle the making of the port too o_O

[stillofftopic]I have a lot of cs remixes from that remixprojectsomethinglikethat though they kinda suck
But the real reason I need mobile composer is so that I can destroy free times where you do nothing like while waiting for food at restaurants.... while producing something. Sounds nice?
btw I also need the real [offtopic][/offtopic] code.

...oh, basically a portable music composer in general? That's...something I can't even find. x_X

@jcys810
Is that even possible? ._O
