So, dumb question from a dumb user ^^

I don't need a DSL to update the card right? I mean I can update it with my 1.4 DSi too right?

You cannot update the card with a 1.4 DSi. The DS needs to be able to boot the card to run the updater -- if you've already updated the DSi to 1.4, it will not boot the AK2i with the old firmware. You'll need to use a DSi with 1.3 or lower, or a DS/DS Lite to do the update.

I have my DSi on 1.4E and my EZ5i updated to the latest firmware so it works on my DSi. So now I want to update my AK2i with this firmware, but I currently don't have access to any other DS. Can I use my EZ5i to boot the ak2ifw_update_14_DSL.nds, the swap the EZ5i with the AK2i and update it?

No.. you have to patch/upgrade the AK2i on other DSi(firmware 1.3 or lower) DSphat/DSLite..
Find other people that owns these and borrow them for like 5 mins for you to patch your ak2i..

I didn't update it myself, my girlfriend did when she borrowed it, -____-

Nevermind, i found an old grey DS at my local shop for less than $50 and they allow returns for full refunds! So thanks anyway for the input.

I know a lot of people might have to travel this route to get their DSi upgraded, but it isn't so bad for the sake of getting free games LOL.

    @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

    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."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    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.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
