With the recent flux of decompiled and recompiled projects for retro games to play them natively on PC, which game do you want see tackled on? And why? Or do you rather want Mods and Romhacks for the actual Rom for emulation?

Oh yes! Most DS games would be perfectly fine without the touch screen.

I don't know much of its library, but most games I played can be perfectly ported to a system with regular gamepads. I could see an RTS benefitting from a touch screen, but those are rare and can perfectly be a virtual pointer like in e.g. Warcraft 2 for the PSX.

Edit: if ported to PC, a mouse is the superior choice for real time strategy
