As promised, the gameplay footage featured in the lost media documentary without commentary! This was as far as I was able to get before the glitch. I'm going to be consulting someone to help debug this and if successful, I should be able to upload a full playthrough! but for now, here's the footage !

If you have an action replay, you should be able to dump the game via that USB port near the cartridge.

You jumped from dvd games to finding one of the rarest DS games... HOW?!

I still cant believe this was actually found, like, i dont really care that the rom cant be published or that its bugged this is an incredible discovery for everyone in the lost media community, you are a true blessing

This game is honestly more silent than I expected. It's a bit eerie.. I also wonder why the tracks are a lot more distorted than in its original form. Is it because of the emu? Weird.

I noticed that too, from what i remember it played a lot better on the actual ds than on the rom. As for the lack of music 10000% eerie😂😂

Even though the game crashed, you will still go down in history for solving this big mystery.

This will go down in lost media history! Such a big case solved

"New objective: survive the first day" oh I've been trying to survive every day, Mean Girls for the Nintendo DS.

The queen's giving us the goodies.

They spend this entire game's budget on the Paramount opening screen

Even if the public doesn't get to play the game This is more than enough! Thank you bobdunga for making this and clueless fashion part of History!

agreed this is good enough.

Regina telling you, you picked today to wear a pony tail and then they show you with your hair down 😅

Maybe the crash has something to do with an anti-piracy routine? Having that happen was a pretty common occurrence during the years of the DS scene, and since the game was almost ready to go gold it wouldn't surprise me if they were already putting them in.

@@chorusaura I know it been one year but yes dev sometime put antipiracy after around 15 minutes because that way, the one who create the .nds from the card think the game totaly work. And in a way you play a free sample of the game. All Zelda ds game get stuff like that but those are big hit so hacker put time and effort. Mean girls won't probably have the amount of time need (in that only if It was officially realised...) Hope my comment help

If Mean Girls DS was found, that means Polybius must be somewhere out there too.

Holy mother, I thought it would be more "decision-making" style or something more like the iCarly game, but... no complaints

I feel like I’m looking through a wormhole onto a sight not meant for human eyes 😂 Thank you for sharing this!

Very impressed by the determination on this project. You have captivated me on this and I have no emotional investment in this game.

I've been following the mystery of this game since I first got into lost media topics back in early 2017, this is one that always interested me since I LOVE Mean Girls and I'm so glad you were able to get your hands on it! Don't listen to those rude people btw, they aren't worth your time💖

May not be debugged but I’ll take it!

Lets goooo 🔥 Just happy to see it in whatever form!! Thank you for your work!

I can't believe it. You did it

You gotta be so proud!! I can’t imagine finding such an obscure considered lost game!!

thank you for documenting your findings so well!! i can't wait to see the game fully debugged one day!

It sucks that the person asked you to not share the rom publicly. This game was lost for more than a decade, many were questioning if it was actually real and now that we know that it is no one can play it? Doesn't make sense to me

the person might have been under an nda or some simalar disclosure agreement that doesn’t let them do this kinda stuff. Would explain why they asked to keep their identity hidden too

You are an absolute goddess. I still can’t believe the game has been found! You are amazing!!

I thought that i accidentaly lowered the volume during the dialogue part so i turned the volume all the way up and then the music startled me

You're a miracle worker! This is an incredible find

I just witnessed history

SO PROUD OF U GIRLY THIS IS MONUMENTAL

Amazing work on the two DS game documentary videos... hope you have success debugging the prototype ROM! Does it get stuck at the same point if you run it on real hardware (i.e. through an R4-style flash card)?

thanks for your hard work and for sharing this! hope to see the game get debugged in the future!

omg this is so amazing people have been looking for so ling and you come with so much woah this is just amazing

glad you finally found this.

Always great to see lost media getting found .

My goodness, Mean Girls DS is actually real?! :0 Such an amazing discovery!

Absolute legend

Honestly seeing the intro alone is such a big thing. Also, great work on finding it:D

DAAAAAAMN I CANT BELIEVE THIIIIIIIIIS !!!!! AFTER 11 YEARS OMG

YOO IM SO PROUD OF YOU

why are so many ds games lost media 😟 also why is this one in particular one of the biggest pieces of lost media?

It's big news because there was little to no proof it existed and no-one had seen or played it. The only evidence it existed was an defunct talian shopping site. Most of the other missing DS games people remembered owning or seeing but not this one

Legendary

Awesome. ♥

Hopefully your able to fix the glitch and play through the rest of the game

YOU FOUND IT!

Holy crap, how did you manage to get this?

you amaze me

My sister would have loved this game if it had been released. Heck for all i know i found it in a bargin bin somewhere and paid it no mind.

Wow!

What if it’s an emulation issue? Emulated games don’t always work as well as playing it on the actual hardware. Often times, emulators have to optimize for specific games. Maybe trying a different emulator, or playing it on a real DS would help?

let's gooo

AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS1

Holy shitttt

HOLYYY CRAP????

you found arguably THE RAREST GAME ON DS... wow.

It looks like the ok game I would play it

Ayy

Doesn’t even work on flash cart?
