Hello people
I haven't really looked into these kind of posiblities yet, but I was wondering wether it would be possible to run 3DS roms (when they can be ripped) on a flashcard designed for the older DSes. Is it purely a software thing, and do you only need a firmware update for your flashcard's OS, or does it also involve major parts of the card's hardware?
Why I want to know? Mainly because I intend on buying a 3DS soon, and don't want to buy two flashcards if I just have to wait for a bit to get a nice, working one. I'm also getting a bit more interested in how it all works and everything.
My best bet is that it depends on the hardware, though. Not entirely sure, but I guess the 3DS games come in a new type of card capable of transfering more/different data?
Thanks,
~ Fang
