Hacking AK2 and Nintendo browser ... which slot_2 mem.exp.?

[to3cutter]

Is this one http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2967 will work with AK2 to run NDS Opera?

 

[Bri]

Yes, it will.

Yes, works without patching the Browser. I have the same.

 

[to3cutter]

Thanx a lot! I will order one right now!

Sidenote: Make sure you have a Nintendo DS Lite. Not Phat.

if I get the same cart, can I be able to put a micro SD in it? They say you can only put 1 or 2 games in it. Is it true?

If you're talking about the mem expansion then i believe you cant.

 

[Licardo7]

what's the difference between a mem expansion pack( like the 3 in 1) and a slot 2 flash card?(like the Super Cart DS whatever)

 

[Bri]

A slot 2 flash cart lets you play both NDS and GBA games, and usually has either internal memory or a microSD slot, just like slot 1 carts. However, in order to play NDS games, you have to have a passme cart in slot 1, which is why slot 1 carts aren't very popular any more.

A GBA expansion cart is also a slot 2 cart, but has only enough internal memory to hold a single GBA game. It works with a slot 1 cart to allow you to play GBA games that are stored on the slot 1 microSD card (the game is loaded to the GBA expansion cart in order to play the game). GBA expansion carts can also work as extra memory needed for the Opera browser.

The EZFlash 3-in-1 is a GBA expansion cart. It has no microSD slot. It has only enough internal memory to play 1 game (well, technically two, but for most purposes 1). The .gba files are stored on the microSD card of your slot 1 flash cart, and loaded to the EZFlash 3-in-1 to play the game.

ok, so the best deal is to get the slot 2 expantion and just store my GBA games in my slot 1, right?

 

[logical thinker]

In my opinion, yes.
I have a Acekard RPG and a 3in1.

 

[to3cutter]

What about GBAexploader, should I use this proggy to get EZflash 3in1 running wiht AK2?

 

[Bri]

No need. The latest AK2 firmware supports the 3-in-1 directly. Just insert the 3-in-1 and click on a .gba game to launch it. You may have to change the settings in the "Start" menu to allow you to see .gba games.
