I don't have a video of the run, I only have a screenshot of my top 3 times in each category, so what should I do?
I don't have a way to record the game, I was able to get a screenshot of my top 3 time in the main category. The game displays a users top 3 times.
Without a video I don’t think there’s much you can do. I don’t believe a screenshot is sufficient for a game request.
If you have any sort of digital camera, point it at your DS and you can record a video of it. It's not ideal and it won't be the best quality, but the video doesn't need to be amazing, it just needs to exist. If you somehow don't have any sort of digital camera, you can get an acceptable cheap one pretty much anywhere.
I do however I'm visually impaired so there is no way the camera would capture my screen since I'd be too close.
I am like about 1 inch from the screen. at most, I don't think I can get that to work.
And not sure, this is the first time I'm requesting a game.
Hmm, it's a peculiar situation. I can think of a couple different solutions you could try. The main being getting some sort of capture device for the 3DS (or whatever specific device your using). They can be a bit pricey since it's such a unique object, but it is available. Another might be switching over to a 3DS emulator and playing on a computer. I don't know if this is a workable solution for you or not though. I see on Brain Age 1, for example, that pictures are accepted up to a certain time limit before videos are required. Maybe submit your game and your photos and explain your situation (so long as your capable of verifying other people's submitted runs). Ideally though, recording anything is ideal, and given that a camera is not much of an option for you (unless something like a GoPro might be effective), a capture device of some sort, or using emulation might be the solution to getting videos down.
I'm not too sure on the capture card thing just because of the price. As far as an emulator goes I'm not sure how well that'd work. I'm answering like 2 problems per second so I don't think I could enter in a number that fast with whatever an emulator would use. Not sure on the go-pro because I don't have one and I think I'd still be to close for that to capture the screen right. I'm more or else against the screen of the system.
Hopefully they are willing to accept screenshots.
Thanks for the ideas of how to help.
Even if you are slower on emulator you just need it to get the game on the site and after than screen shots as proof or summit ^^ could ask the current brain age mods if they have interest getting it on the site sadly ds/3ds capture is kinda finicky thought I hope you get something sorted :)
I was unable to find an emulator for the game.
Earlier I submitted a request for the game with a screen shot to my 20 Problem record and explained my situation. There are quite a few categories but I just submitted that one for now because I can add all the ones that need adding if it gets accepted.
Just curious but how would a game 100% reliant on the touch screen even work on an emulator?
Thanks for the suggestions
Yeah it does :) it is how normal ds emulation works ^^ you can use your mouse or if you have a touchscreen laptop/monitor you could use that :) graphic tablets can also be used but obviously mouse is most common ^_^
I'm gonna be straight with you: If you have no run, then you have no choice but to wait for someone else to request it with their run.
Okay thank you. I'll see how my request I had sent in goes, if it doesn't wok out I'll try that and hopefully it can get all sorted out. In my request I only showed my score for 1 of the categories, but the game has many. If it does get accepted I guess it'll allow me to create all the categories needed for the game?
"If it does get accepted I guess it'll allow me to create all the categories needed for the game?"
Yes, that's correct :)
