Gaming Copy saves TO legit cartridge?

notmeanymore · Feb 20, 2011

I know that it's pretty easy to get the game save from a legit cartridge to your computer, but I'm curious if the reverse is possible. Could I take a game save from no$gba or my AceKard and put it on a legit game cartridge? Whether I need to buy hardware to do it, or can run a homebrew app for it on a DS Lite matters not.

My main purpose for this: Ever since I got my AceKard, I've left my Pokemon Platinum on the shelf and used a copied save on my AK2i. When the 3DS comes out, I'll obviously not be able to play anything on my AK2i, but still want to play Pokemon (among other games I have backed up) on it without losing my progress.

Yes, there is hardware that will let you copy save files to and from your cartridge and computer. It's called the NDS Adaptor Plus. There may be others, but this is the one I use.

I have cartridges for most of the games I like enough.

Action Replay DSi and a micro SD.

Also use the online sav converter to convert .sav files to the .whatever ARDSi uses. Then backup install the game. It's how I do it.

Savsender lets you copy saves either way. You simply host your save file (using nc on windows, it's easy) and copy to the official cart.

This won't work on a DSi (due to issues with the wifi access) but I've used it to transfer my DQIX stuff both ways for months.

It also (I've heard) has issues with Heart Gold and Soul Silver, due to large save files, but it should work fine for platinum.
