So, i got a modded NEW 3ds, hyrule edition cfw from a friend.The moment i got it, i plopped my old NDS AceKard 2i in it and instantly it booted up and i could play my DS games. Well, i lost my ackard for awhile and eventually found it. plopped the little guy in and nothing. the acekard has Akiao 1.9.0 on it. Only things that have changed is i occasionally launch Luma Updater and install newest Luma. Which i have no clue what that even is. Any ideas n help is appreciated.

Figured it out. Had to switch this one thingy to this boot9strap thingy lol. Works a charm now. Followed a guide on 3ds DOT guide

Ok, i booted the acekard on my new 3ds and it didnt show my aio folder etc. thought i broke something. All i had to do was hit start and in settings, enable hidden files. blam. So excited.....Phantasy Star 0 here i come. Thanks for commenting guys. ANyone else run into this issue, it seems i needed to switch from A9LH to B9S. Also...and probably for no reason at all, I found a 3DS firmware flash file to update my cards fw. SO now the icon is different but what the hey lol. Works so im happy. Again, in system settings it says im on 11.6. I was going to post link to guide but the forums here wont let me. Keeps saying it looks like im spamming when i enter link. Anyways, i have NO clue how this 3DS is setup. What CFW its on etc. Just got it form a friend who got it from some dude on Craigslist. But if anyone needs help, i kinda sorta can try. w00t. Oh, and ive had this card for like 12 years or something lol. So happy its still kicking it.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    yea ik im stupid
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
