A shame they still havent made acekard usuable on 4.4...
I'm guessing acekard is as good as dead for 3DS, havent updated 3DS yet as I've had no need to. I guess the next 3DS game I want is luigis mansion 2, so I guess that will force me to update and acekard will be lost forever, h ha.

Imho Nintendo obviously is making a point to thwart the AceKard and it probably is mixing up the team as to how and when to release an update. Personally I feel that it is quite possible that the updates are not changing the amount of AceKard products sold, too, so they probably don't have to be in a real big rush to release said "beta patches". But I can only speculate.

It would be cool if someone reverse engineered the whole thing and made it community based to update this card. Then nobody would have to worry about them closing up shop. But this idea of mine, too, may be a bit far fetched and unrealistic for some reason.

But for me personally, I own four 3DS consoles, a DSi, and a regular DS. So if they block AceKard or anything else, I can still use it on the console that I choose just not the 3DS that I update all the way. Thankfully, SuperCard team is quick to release an update for theirs which imho is very unexpected from that team with their shoddy product track record in the past. Does anyone remember the original SuperCard and how terrible compatability was with it (and what I mean by that is either games not working or running way too slow).

AKAIO has nothing to do with firmware compatibility...

It was my understanding that they literally can't make an update for Acekard that will make it work on 4.4. The 3DS firmware now has a way to detect the Acekard in such a way that a simple firmware patch won't hide it. Or so the rumor mill goes.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    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."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    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.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @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:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    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
