I doubt it mate, they don't even know how it will look like then. They don't care if the AK2i won't work on US/EU devices because they will just make another card and sell even more. The only reason why a few teams care a bit more about their users and that is because that they buy stuff from them, nothing else. Sadly it's not about being friendly.

Nintendo can't create too many differences between existing DSis and and the upcoming ones. It would be a compatibility and testing nightmare. But what they can do is patch the firmware for ALL regions and block it for everyone. Just don't use Wi-Fi, you say? They can put it on carts just like they do Wii discs. And it probably won't ask you if it's OK to update, either, because as of Wii system 3.4 it doesn't ask you.
So, in short, unless you've got money to throw around and need to be on the bleeding edge of new shiny things wait to see how it pans out.

I was Thinking the same, im sure Nintendo are gonna get there hands on one and see how it works
The DSi isn't that compelling to me, but of course that's all there will be once they are fully released worldwide. I will be buying a backup DS (or two) when the time comes! I have little interest in firmware wars, especially when your firmware can be mandatorily updated without permission, like with the Wii.
To add here that I know that shop.01media.com will have the Acekard DSi in stock from next week they just emailed me to let me know
really off topic but someone have a link to the skin on the acekard2i in the video? I want it for my RPG. >_

The Sd slot in the DSi supports 32gb HCSD cards plus with dsi ware homebrewers will just have to find a way to port their homebrew to dsi by converting it into dsi ware format then make one for each region. But I hate region-coding so go acekard!!!!!!!!!

they also said we could boot wiiware and wii vc games, and what happend? its not gonna take long before we have free dsware, and we can also modify wii's updates so it only updates stuff we need and nothig that will stop fakesigned products to work, so just cause dsi doesnt read fakesigns as of now doesnt mean it wont tommorow. i am such a proud owner of Acekard RPG right now....tho im hoping ak team is able to somehow let up upgrade rpg flash memory so it can boot in dsi as well

Unless you have 10 PS3 consoles decrypting the DSi firmware at once wait for the flashcart manufacturers to do better. Plus I heard nintendo stated that they want their dsi to be more than games so their dsiware could provide the same if not more functionality than homebrew. In addition government grade encryption has been broken before so nothing is stopping hackers from getting a cluster to decrypt nintendo firmware. look how fast psp firmware was decrypted!!!! the same will happen for the dsi. In addition adobe said it themselves they want to port flash 10 or optimize it for use in mobile devices with the ARM processor and the DSi had a beefed up ARM processor obviousely the opera browser will be updated to include the new functionality as nintendo can do this.
I'm just wondering but do you think one of the flash card teams will make a software or w/e to change the language of the dsi?
cause the dsi is in japanese and all so yeah. cause i'm now thinking of buying one cause of this acecard thing but i'm wondering if its possible?

yes, it would be great if acekard team make a region loader in the linker, because you can only play your DS games in japanese or english if it don't have an option for the language.

Are there any plans for the Acekard 2i to include the card swapping functionality seen in this video of the iPas?
The card basically boots another (non-DSi) flash card, so older generation flash cards can be used. I don't really have any plans to get a DSi, but the ability to use the Acekard 2i for general use and swap to another card for specialist stuff (real-time save, in-game guide, etc.) would instantly improve the AK2i's featureset.

Hey, that's not a bad idea! It should be really easy to implement; just booting a cartridge shouldn't be too hard.Vague Rant said:
Received my acekard2i today and it works just like the normal acekard2, but now in the dsi
the larger screens and bigger body of the dsi are really welcome features for me, i can sell my dsl now
also updated the dsi firmware to the latest version and it didnt stop the acekard2i from working.

Or, I also heard that if you use flash memory, it can act as more "RAM" at least windows tell me when I stick a flash drive into it. -
