Alternative rumble options #18

I'm considering buying a DS Rumble Pak so I can enjoy the rumble feature built into your cores. The paks are selling for about $60 on eBay and the like.

Before I shell out the cash for the DS pak, I thought I might ask if you could add compatibility with the motors in actual game cartridges like WarioWare Twisted or even older carts like Pokemon Pinball for GB/GBC (both of which I already own).

Utilizing the motor in those carts would probably involve some tricky coding, but if you're up to the challenge, I'd be so impressed and grateful. I'm sure other Pocket users would benefit from this functionality also!

UPDATE: I bought the official DS rumble pak. This feature request is still something I'm interested in seeing, both for the sake of other users, as well as my own.

The position and intensity of the DS pak good, but I enjoy the Pokemon Pinball motor also, and I think that having the option to use that motor would be swell.
