free games if that doesnt make u switch im lost in humanity

Believe it or not - not everyone gets CFW in order to pirate games. Like the OP himself (apparently). To put that into perspective .. if CFW was like a flashcart where all it would do is let you play games for free, there would be more people who don't have CFW installed because that's not the feature they want out of CFW.

I don't have R4 ... only Supercard DSTWO and Gateway. Frankly I don't know what moonshell is but I'm sure you understand the point I was making nonetheless anyways. CFW opens up a lot of possibilities .. not just piracy.

it allowed many things like movies on my ds lite . . . . but you had a scds2 and you that gave you cheats and the ability to setup .txt documents (stratagy guides) you can open without closing your ds game ect. . . ds flashcards= more than piracy

Maybe DS flashcarts, but I just said "flashcarts" in general. Honestly when I wrote that I thought of Gateway and Sky3DS (and maybe Sky3DS even more than Gateway) so maybe I should've written those instead but even if flashcarts allow more than piracy, they don't allow nowhere near as much as CFW does. Honestly the post earlier suggested that people would only get CFW for piracy but this is simply untrue.

I'm sorry, but due to my OCD I have to point this out.
You used a double negative.

And? I thought this thread was about CFW and not my grammar? Look at the left side of the site .. Hmm what's that .. is that a Finnish flag you see? Why yes it is. Now take a wild guess whether English is my first language .. Oh you're right, it's not. I think I do a pretty good job despite it being a secondary language .. I really don't need witty remarks about small mistakes I may or may not have.

As far as I'm concerned people just use "OCD" as an excuse when they feel like pointing out something that could otherwise be labeled as rude. And fair enough - I was pretty rude in this thread to you as well so I guess we're even on that department but I don't see what this has to do with this thread.

I never noticed that Finnish flag. I apologize.
