AMAP4DSIf you're like this writer here who has an awful (or bordering to none) sense of direction, you might wanna seek the help of Christ. Not only will he show you the way, he'll even guide you to the right direction -- with just a few touches and strokes.

Lest I be accused of blasphemy, let's clear a few things up: Christophe Andreani (or Christ) is THE Christ we're talking about here. And this Christ shows that one need not be crucified to lead the people to the right path, all ya gotta do is show them the way through...maps.

His map-viewing homebrew app called AMAP4DS literally shows us the way...through subways, cities, and metros all over the globe. We already brought you guys AMAP4DS v3.1, which even included the source code for the app.

So just in case Christ wasn't able to cover some locations you need to get to (he's not "everywhere" after all, eh?), you can add your own maps and use your DS to view them. Good news though, Christ has just added five more maps for your viewing pleasure, so just in case you find yourself in Switzerland, Sweden, or Japan, these new maps might prove to be very useful to you:

  • Geneve transport
  • Stockholm Subway
  • Yokohama Subway
  • Zurich S Bahn
  • Zurich Tram
And just in case you've forgotten how to use it, here's the control system to refresh your memory:
  • Scroll the map => Stylus or Pad
  • Zoom "+" => "Plus" icons, or Space between the two "Plus" icons, or Zoom indicators top, or "A", or "X", or "L"+Pad.Up button
  • Zoom "-" => "Minus" icons, or Space between the two "Minus" icons, or Zoom indicators bottom, or "Y", or "B", or "L"+Pad.Down button
  • Setting distance between the two screens (screen space) => "Black box" icon, or "SELECT" button (not available in the lowest zoom level)
  • Show credits => "?" icon, or "START" button
