    DS #2107: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Rings Of Fate (USA)

    ? I think the last time 3 guys made a mainstream game was in the atari days. 360/PS3 console dev teams are in the 60-100+ range. For a smaller scale DS game, I honestly don't know, but I would *guess* around a dozen full-time dev's plus a boatload of support people. Just look at the credits...

    DS #2107: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Rings Of Fate (USA)

    wow, lots of complainers around. get over it. playing pirated games is not a right. just wait, by the end of next week i'm sure a patch will be out. in the meantime, why not consider supporting the people who spent years making the game? the better the game does, the sooner they'll...

    DS #1331: Heroes of Mana (USA)

    imho, it feels like an amateurish attempt at RTS but with nice polish on top and a decent story. More specifically.. Nice story, decent "cutscenes" for DS, great music! but what in the world is up with pathfinding?? and unit selection is a little slow.. and no grouping? no formations? and is...

    Hacking [PICTURES] Snaps of your Wiikey Install

    are those burn marks on the PCB? does it work alright? in the world of soldering, less is more guys. If you're having trouble putting down just a dab of solder, just practice more on an old vid card or whatever first. don't risk your precious wii because of a little impatience. but hey, if it...

    Hacking Kingston microSD Japan vs. Taiwan

    Hmm, what are you guys saying exactly? That you have a japanese and a taiwan card and that the taiwan card performs worse and formats at a lower capacity? what if you don't have a JP card? I think I'd rather buy another card that I know for sure is MIJ, and use my TW card for video / manga

    Hacking Any fix yet for Castlevania: POR on R4DS?

    Hmm.. interesting. I'm using a 1GB Kingston (Taiwan) purchased from meritline, with my R4 and POR crashes constantly. Pressing start = crash ~20% of the time Warp = crash ~30% of the time Random crashes during gameplay maybe... once an hour? It's enough to make the game unplayable for me ...

    Hacking R4 DS owners roll call

    Hey, I searched the forum and this topic but couldn't turn anything up, so I hope this hasn't been asked before but... Is the R4 supposed to come with a black replacement shell? I recently got one from www.echostore.com but it came with just the white R4, with the 2nd batch reader, but no...

    Do you plan to chip your Wii?

    I'm a big pc game pirate, and when I got a wii I assumed I'd mod it and play "backups" *cough*.. yeah.. but then I decided, you know, I really am getting sick of generic games and sequels to sequels to prequels of games. So with the wii, if a good unique game that I enjoy comes out, I'm going...

    Gaming movies on the Wii

    Orb is *alright* but definitely not ideal. It works, I've played anime streaming to my wii in the opera browser using ORB, but the quality is ~youtube level, if not a little worse, and because of opera's white bar along the bottom, the video isn't even that big. Think of it as a private...

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @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.

    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.

    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

    but that's a long shot

    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.
