Hacking Nintendo DS Download Station

[MarioMasta64]

so i found some ds download station ds carts at a local pawn shop (first 11 volumes for $50 :o not sure if theres more :/ ) and was wondering if theres anyway to dump the ds download play'd roms

The same way you dump a normal DS ROM. WoodDumper, for example.
Do scoop up all of those, just a single one will often fetch $50, and I don't think I've seen dumps of all of them!

Last I checked they're just sitting in the filesystem.

Try seeing for yourself with "Every File Manager". Its this amaizing tool, in which, it can browse pretty much anything you want...

Or maybe not everything, but it works well for DS carts

also how would i go about extracting files that save but go away after reboot? :o

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

i found a few files and one of them turns out to be just an .nds rom :o "/mb/ds_demo_client.srl" im guessing the other files in "/ds_demo/" are the roms sent. now to figure out what format they are .3.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

so ds_demo_station.srl is sent to the other system and awaits a connection to the main system that sent it. :o fancy

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

also i might be able to add my own demos to the archive :o theres a file /mb/sign.bat that has c:\NitroSDK\tools\bin\attachsign ds_demo_client.srl ds_demo_client.sgn ds_demo_client.srl in it :o

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

but the nds can only hold so much in memory so im guessing 64mb roms wouldnt work :/ i cant exactly include sdk tools either if i were to release
