Or would that not work?
Sadly no. The 3DS won't recognize the cartridge if you hotswap cartridges in DS-mode, and sudokuhax doesn't have access to the cartridge slot AFAIK.
It would be possible to do it with 3DS-mode homebrew (would possibly require kernel access/CFW though), but no one's made a tool to do it yet.

That's a bummer, I wish hoping you could so I wouldn't have to fiddle with my internet settings just to connect my DS

I think uncart can do this, however, you need to run it under MSET: https://github.com/Normmatt/uncart

I have a build somewhere that does dump NDS games as I was able to dump my Action Replay NDS with it for science purposes, but I'm not sure if the version on GitHub here has those capabilities.

I stand corrected - it does seem to support NDS games. At least, there are files named protocol_ntr and command_ntr, as well as protocol_ctr and command_ctr. ntr most likely stands for nitro, the NDS codename.

  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
