The FPGA can load the ROM and save data as mounted image files, it wouldn't matter what "format" the microSD is in as long as it can read and write to it.
And?
Indeed you don't need to modify it. You just need to feed it raw to the 3DS via the FPGA, so I still can't see your point.you cant modify it or have anything else on it
-_-
heres an example
as you can the the Micro SD would be in NCSD Format
then contain the following on mini Partitions at set locations
so if you Got Super Mario Bros 2
Got Micro SD
Formatted the MicroSD to NCSD Format
then Flashed the Rom to the MicroSD this is the result
it takes up the whole partition and remains as thus otherwise the 3DS wont load it
Indeed you don't. You just need to feed it raw to the 3DS via the FPGA, so I still can't see your point.
The microSD can be formatted in FAT32, since the FPGA selects the file, loads it into memory then feeds it raw to the 3DS.
Even for what you say ("the microSD acts as a chip") there needs to be hardware in between, so there goes out the window your theory.the 3DS Knows whats in between and can detect hardware if need be
you cannot add anything between the Game chip and the 3DS without it stopping you
you can only add stuff after the initial hardware

can anyone link me to the first DS flashcard ?
i want to see how it look
oh. i thought it look like this, a game loader,only 1 game per SDthe first DS one was the R4
2GB Max MicroSD
couldn't update the Firmware
wont work on any DSi's or above due to you couldnt update the firmware
my first DS card was this......can anyone link me to the first DS flashcard ?
i want to see how it look
i thought so,well m3 was my first flashcard if i remember correctly
I have contacted the team to request a review sample. 99% of the time cart makers will send us a sample to review as the publicity we can bring them far outweights the cost of a few flash kits.
This does not seem to be any step towards Homebrew, only slightly more convenient piracy. If I understand it correctly this does not exploit any of the signing etc mechanisms, so it is just one step above a simple bootleg, and no step at all towards Homebrew, or even a better understanding of the inner software workings of the 3DS.i hope this will be the first steps for proper homebrew on 3DS. it is not rare that it begins with piracy and goes to homebrew then.
