Proposal: 3DS WG

Discussion
1

Me, @otterlord.dev and @trezy.codes have been working on a little project to bring ATproto to the 3DS family of systems. @essentialrandom.bsky.social then decided to post about it as a joke. Now we have people that are interested, and we’d like a place where people can collab on stuff! Sounds like a WG to me. We’d like to:

  • Figure out ways to work around the constraints of the 3DS, like an outdated browser and the low-power specs
  • Figure out ways to improve the protocol based on our findings
  • Make cool apps and libraries people can then use to make more cool things

This could, in theory, be changed to a wider “Consoles WG“. But the 3DS is the only system we’ve played around with for now.

This is the post that got a bit of traction. Might not be enough for a full WG just yet, but I wanted to get ahead of the interest that clearly seems to be there.

I’d agree with 3DS for now, then we can expand later. Also, volunteering as co-chair.

Yeeeeeees! I’m gonna be building a version of Trezy’s Pets with Lua and LÖVE Potion, which supports Wii U! We’ll already be half way there! :exploding_head:
