The red button is for switching games one advantage the DS series has over this card you can have more than 10 roms this card only allows for 10 games you would have to carry a 2nd micro SD for more than 10 games
I can't believe people still don't get it. It's 10 games per sky3ds card. Not per micro sd. You have to buy one flashcart for every 10 games you wish to pirate. 100 games = 10 sky3ds cards + 10 micro sd cards. At $90 each for the sky3ds alone that's $900. They are seriously smoking crack if they expect to sell alot of these.

10 games for 1 card? Are they serious? Don't get me wrong, everything is better then nothing, but this is.. well, it's just not practical.

Let's say I don't know the game and put it on the card, then I notice that the game is just not for me - congratulations! You wasted 9 dollars [archievment unlocked] :mellow:

Next time, watermark your video with the GBATemp logo. It's being used to sell on R4Gateway.com (The most unoriginal name ever that just screams scam).

Do you think I should file a copyright claim? :tpi:

I jest, I jest - it's just a video, re-ups are no big deal. Anywho, the review is almost ready, I just have to test a few more games for the compatibility list. ;)

This seems like a throwback in 3DS scene and people should not support this kind of policy. I just hope someone appears with a better choice than that one soon.

Can't wait to see how the market looks like in 1 year from now. I'm sure it'll be full of competitors, lower prices and more options.
Very entertaining week for the 3DS

Ah, and I was hoping it can bypass region lock.

It is an impressive achievement, but it remains to be seen if this card can survive future firmware update. Also the 10 game limits also needs to be addressed in the future.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
