If I make a really good game with darkbasic pro and want to release it for a console, would it be possible to get somebody to convert it over to C++?

1. This is the Dark Basic Classic forum. Please go to the Dark Basic Pro forum for your question, before this thread gets locked.
2. There is no direct conversion method to C++, since they are 2 completely different languages. However, Dark GDK is sort of a bridge from DB to C, but I'm not sure if that would help.
3. What console to you plan to release this on? You would probably need to hack the console to run homebrew.
4. The above question is irrelevant because this thread will be locked by sundown.

I was checking out how detailed the conversion would be between dark gdk and DBPro and the commands in DBPro are very similar to the gdk library. The syntax is a little different but the parameters are essentially the same.
It was a very friendly conversion. I'm not sure if its me but dark gdk did not seem compatible with some original C++ libraries.
