The compass is wrong in that East/West are flipped, specifically. If you assume that the coordinate system of DS is typical computer coordinates, in that they go right for positive X and down for positive Z, then logically North is negative Z and South is positive Z, which the compass matches correctly if you assume it's going off the camera orientation, and not the character orientation.

Of course, if you assume it's off the character orientation, then not only does it not match the typical computer coordinate system, but it's still wrong, because rotation has rotational symetry. (Who would have guessed)
