@ DeltaBurnt: It's been suggested in another post that I should suggest you to add some additional info about the DSTwo affect on battery life

I won't bother repeating it here - but you can have a look at it here and decide for yourself if it's suitable or not

I think you need a question on why the Real time menu only opens at certain times in a game like:

Why does real time menu not work at some points during a game?
This happens when the buttons you are using for your hotkey are ignored on that stage of the game then the hotkey won't work because your DS is ignoring those buttons

Or something similar to that, I've seen it come up in a couple of threads already

just noticed that you called Windaga's image guide a guide to creating real time guides (that was confusing)

It's actually a guide to put images on your DSTWO, not text guides, just thought I'd mention

Edit: you put (txt and bmp), it's only bmp

At the bottom of his guide he also explains how to put multiple text guides in aswell. It's sort of a given that the text guides would just be guides from places like gamefaqs.

Quick Question: Will this use the same .sav format as the M3i Zero TouchPod?

Because I'm buying one of each today and want to be able to cross-port my games.

ALSO will any slot-2 device work with this because I'm getting the complete m3 set.

If I remember correctly, the SCDSTWO has an auto detect feature for save files. Even if it doesn't turn out to have it you can always use the shunyweb converter.

Furthernore the slot-2 device with the m3 bundle should work natively. If it doesn't you use the homebrew gbaexploader.

So... Supercard DSTwo + EZ Flash 3-in-1 = Perfect GBA on DSPhat? Since it works with the AceKard (which I'll have to buy since M3's are not in stock right now...) it should work with DSTwo right?

NES emulators work on any flash carts that runs homebrew.
GBA emulation only works on two cards, the iPlayer and the DSTwo. The DSTwo's is much better and still getting updates, so it's recommended to get.

Technically this isn't true.
In fact virtually any flashcard that can run Homebrew can run an Emulator (either SNES or GBA), however usually to run a GBA emulator you requires a 'Slot-2' device - meaning you can only use DSLite/DSPhat's for GBA games. Also because you are using the DS own limited CPU/Memory to run not only the Emulator but the GBA/SNES game - the emulation is usually of a poor quality (e.g. laggy)

The DSTwo however (& iPlayer IIRC) has it's own extra memory & cpu, so it can run GBA games without needing a slot-2 device which means you can use this card on a DSi/DS XL to play GBA games, & (I guess some1 will correct me on this) since the CPU in the DSTwo is a bit more powerful/speedier than the DS's own - the emulation is usually better.

Also, the Emulators for GBA and SNES running don't seem to of been updated for a while, yet (as Rydian has said) the DSTwo is currently being updated - then IMHO it's better to get the DSTwo
