Hello, I'm not sure if this has been answered yet (if it is I’m sorry, I couldn't find it) but I’m wondering how I can put my .sav file back into my ds flashcard. I was able to transfer over my .sav file into an emulator on my mac and now I’m trying to put the .sav file from the emulator back into the flash card. They both have the same rom (Pokemon Moon Black 2) and when I look into my flash card before the sav file was a .nds.sav file, and when I exported it to put it back it was a .sav file and Idk if that makes a difference. The game still works it just doesn't have a save file in it and when I do try to play the flashcard it basically makes a new .nds.sav file and doesn't load the .sav file. Anyone know why this might be? (I’m sorry if english is bad ) Any help will be appreicated :)

Of course it's not going to load the .sav file if it's creating an .nds.sav file.

Delete the .nds.sav file that the game creates and rename your .sav file so it has the same name as the file you deleted.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM

  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:

    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
