for when you get around to the GB KISS(id imagine that a IR USB device would help emulation for those that can't afford to get it or to try and mitigate scalping) http://nectaris.tg-16.com/intro-nectaris-GB-KISS-LINK-FAQ-gameboy.html the full scans of the manual seem to be missing, the insert ones though are here http://nectaris.tg-16.com/gbim/insert1.jpg http://nectaris.tg-16.com/gbim/insert2.jpg you could try and contact him to see if he still has the manual scans, but i don't know how much luck you'll have the passion he displayed reminded me of you

and just because i guess ill post a list of accessories from the ds accessories wikipedia page wich im quite sure you know all of them already: Nintendo DS Digital TV Tuner, DS Direction Sensing Card, DS Direction Sensing Card, Beypoint Reader, Piano Keyboard, Ranger GPS System, Hyperkin 3 Game Selector, Dragon NDS Lite FM Radio Converter, FM Radio by Futureronics, The Bling Tunes FM Radio, Cyber Famulator Lite, Hoshizora Navi why did i do that?, well because AND due to the last one not being on the wiki meaning it might be new to you, on this link you'll see what the cart does https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/top10/2745-the-top-10-nintendo-gameboy-generation-cartridges-with-built plus i did find some videos on the bayer didget https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xctzgFfMEJg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYS2QkqbLb0 http://thisiscaleb.wordpress.com/2010/06/01/bayers-didget%E2%84%A2-review-by-caleb/ i think the mother could be contacted, but i don't know if after 12 years they still have the didget https://www.ydmv.net/2010/05/bayer-didget-first-look.html https://ladyandtheblog.com/didget-bayers-diabetes-care-system/ https://vgcollect.com/item/63398 a collector has it it quite likely will lead to nothing, but still

Thanks for posting all of that information! I actually referenced that Nectaris site quite a bit while writing my upcoming book. It's a shame some of the pictures of the GB KISS LINK are so low-resolution though.

I still have my eye on quite a few DS accessories to work on. I've had most of the items on that list in my possession for a while (including the NTR-030, e.g. Hoshizora Navi). Still looking for the Bayer Digit though. Unfortunately, the DS is going to have to wait until I finish up with the rest of the GBA stuff. We're actually very close to having all of the officially licensed DMG/GBC/GBA accessories/peripherals/cartridges emulated in some form or another, so I want to see that goal taken care of first before doing more DS work. Unlicensed products aren't a priority at this time either, although I have my eye on them (such as the Shark MX, for instance).

Regardless, I appreciate your enthusiasm for exotic Game Boy/DS hardware! Feel free to post any more research you come across here. It's a slow process, but we're gradually preserving things.

Thank you for showing enthusiasm in obscure accessories too!

I also am excited in emulating or at least virtualizing (making a full Linux VM) for old Smart TVs.
