I am planning to buy a ezflash 4 or 3in1 to run opera browser, to play some gba games perhaps and so i was wondering does the ezflash 4 lite compact and the 3in1 have any ram support and if there is, is there enough to run the opera browser, I also want to know if it is possible for it to run gba union for ex. pokemon migration for diamond and pearl.

I use a 3in1 with my DSTT.
Opera Browser works, heard you need some patching for it, but YSMenu doesn't need it.
3in1 has RAM to run 16MB GBA games, if you want to run the 32 MB games, it has a NOR which takes forever to flash, but works.

The Lite Compact is not something you want to buy for GBA support; it was designed as a cheap cart for playing DS games, and most of the GBA support was removed. In addition, it cannot be used as a RAM cart for the browser.

As for the 3-in-1, yes to the RAM, yes to the GBA union working, and yes to the GBA union working for the Pokemon games (but only with patched Diamond/Pearls roms, not retail D/P game paks). Note that you need a DS and a slot 1 flashcart to use the 3-in-1, there is no other way to write games to it.

256 megabits (32 megabytes - Mb means megabit, MB means megabyte) is the maximum size for GBA games. The 3-in-1 has 32 MB of NOR flash memory and 16MB of RAM. Any GBA game up to 16MB can be run from RAM; 32MB games can only be run from NOR.

You use a program called GBA ExpLoader to actually run the GBA games from RAM or write them to NOR, and it works just fine with the SCDS1. GBA union and the pokemon crap works with the SCDS1 as well.

    Going to the water park, see ya
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Have fun @Xdqwerty. If you see a chocolate candy bar floating in the water, don't eat it!

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
