Hey, I'm really sorry if this is posted in the wrong catergory, but I was just wondering where I go to learn more about devkitpro and where to begin basically... I want to develop a game, but I (so far) lack the know how...

I recommend that you install devkitARM and take a look at the samples. the first step would be to compile the samples. then try to get them to run on hardware or an emulator. then try to modify them. do you have a specific project in mind or just general curiousity?

It's going to be difficult programming a game without (I'm assuming) knowing a programming language first. Since you haven't mentioned knowing C or C++, I recommend learning one of those. For C, you can get
The C Programming Language, or for C++ you can get
The C++ Programming Language. These are both great primers to the respective languages, and will definitely help when attempting to write code for the DS. After that,
GBATEK and the examples should help serve as explanation for getting started.
