Hi, I'm still in school (13), and I really love to make computer games (built in C++/C#). Now, I would like to eventually get a job in the industry, and go to a school for game design as well. My question, however is this, can I legally make games for the Nintendo DS? Not to sell, yet at least,(maybe when I have left university) but more for a demo/portfolio base. If I can do this, what are the laws surrounding it? What software do I need, what hardware do I need, what licences do I need, and where do I buy it? Also, what about for the PS2/3 and the Xbox 360? Thank you for reading my question, Sophie
