I purchased a DSiWare game on one of my old Nintendo DSi systems a long time ago called "Flametail." I have been unable to find a ROM of this game anywhere online, yet I would still like to have a rom of it for emulation purposes. If possible, I would like to be able to dump the game from my own DSi so that I can still play it after that system breaks for good. Unfortunately, Flametail is NOT a game that's on the 3DS eShop, so I cannot re-download it there. In fact, this old DSi that is about to break seems to be the ONLY way I'll ever be able to play this game again, so I would really like to be able to obtain a .nds ROM of it before it's too late. Unfortunately, I have no idea where to start. Would somebody please point me in the right direction? Thank you very much.

Transfer the game from your DSi to your SD, grab a tool called dsi_srl_extract, then take the game bin from your SD and drop it onto dsi_srl_extract.
