[DjoeN]

Uhoh, more choices.. Don't know what to buy anymore..

Er Choices, NO WAY !

Gotta Catch Them All (All DS Flashcarts)!!!


let's see what do i still miss ?

Ow i know

EZ4 Lite
DS-Link

(You can always help me out in donating one of my missing flashcarts

)

"Pokémon trading cards" NO WAY "DS Trading Flashkits" is the new Game !!!

This looks like the best slot 1 device so far. I will wait till one of the other teams copy it and release their version of the device. Either supercard, m3 etc.... At least you know with the supercard team or the M3 team that you'll get regular firmware updates and all the roms will work. With this though will you need firmware updates?

Looking at this from a hardware perspective, a "no patching" slot-1 solution with SD cards is simply physically impossible.

The SD cards and the required internal contention bus makes it impossible for the SD hardware to deliver the data to the DS card databus on time.

I can see this working with no patching for games like new super mario bros, nintendogs and the like as they have DS cards with some high latency.

But, for games with almost no latency (which is like 80% of all released DS games), it's just not gonna happen unless you use patching.

Those are my 2 cents.

 

[misoup]

you are saying no patching is impossible to get without any slowdown, not totally no patching. The POS neoflash mk3 has been able to do no patching, but it had a lot of slowdown and compatibilty issues, but it is already done technology

 

[Bram Stoker]

No, I'm saying, if the DS goes "hey acekard, give me data at offset 5000", the acekard will choke and go "DS pls wait !! WAIT !!" and the DS crashes.

How's that for lamen's terms?

I like the menu, looks fast and to the point ... I hope they don't 'gay' it up.Â

I hope it is good.

Anyway, off the point:

Why do people like you always say "GAY this" and "GAY that" ? Does that mean you are gay too ?

Actually, I think people are forced or just to use Gay this and that like they are homophobia or something.

EDIT: Just wonder.

People who try to unveil the meaning of applying a derogatory lable such as "GAY" to non-inanimate objects are GAY.

Edit - YES, I HAVE A FEAR OF GAYS. Finally, out of the closet.

 

[XmemphistoX]

Haha, why do you have a fear of gays for? Did they do something to you? LOL!

 

[spotanjo3]

I guess he is finally out of the closet and he is gay!? Congratulation.

I don't think I need to say this, but since I always do, I may as well say it again.

Slot 1 solutions < Slot 2 solutions for many reasons. They offer a FEW advantages with MAJOR drawbacks.

There is no real need for this type of product UNTIL more NDS games are released that use Slot 2 hardware addons (like the RAM pack) in conjunction with NDS games. Until that time, you may as well get a cart that can play NDS and GBA games because there is simply no need for Slot 1 flashcarts.

 

[neojei]

I prefer slot 1 just because you can just pop it in any DS and run it, there is no shell swapping needed to be done. I still have a DS Phat, also have a DS Lite. My friends all have either a Lite or Phat, we'd rather save a few bucks getting a slot 1 solution that has flashme, and we can also buy at a bulk price, lol. GBA...there's like very few games for the GBA that are worth playing imo, there's some great ones, but I've lived this long without even touching them, I'm sure I can get buy without playing those games.

 

[xflash]

hmm seems nice guess i should finally ask ninto to repair my ds lite's slot 1. does anyone know when it will be relased

 

[kohkindachi]

Wonder what size will it be

 

[lurker]

Wonder what size will it be

"Real DS card size"?

Or do you mean storage? Because it uses micro SD, which has a max size of 2GB currently, but you can always use more than one.

Then why the hell did you buy a NDS? I have played GBA games ages ago with my normal GBA and GBA SP. DS is the future.

 

[Extreme Coder]

To the guy who's talking about SD speed problems, NinjaDS and DSLink are apparently both working with pretty high compatibilty...

 

[kohkindachi]

Read the final review of DSLink, there seems to be a few functions that it lacks, hope Acekard can have it all. Regarding price....what you pay is what you get. I guess i'm willing to pay more if it's really good.

Why would patching prevent slowdowns? If you say that just because until now clean-rom solutions had slowdowns, I'm not that convinced...
