i dont think it will go over 50$ and this itself is too much... 45$ max and thts quite a good price ( i remember buying my r4 for this price albeit in AUS Dollars which is pretty much the same as US dollars these days)

Then you obviously don't know Team Cyclops.

cool; can't wait to buy one when available. BUt where can I buy it if I can't use Shoptemp anymore?
Seriously, what's with all those "oh noez, shoptemp clozed, were can I get my flash cardz nowz" posts? I mean, before shoptemp opened, people got their flashcarts from other places. And googling flashcarts for sale isn't the hardest thing in the world. Neither is checking all the topics about "where can I buy ****" or "is ***** a trust worthy site?".

You could buy it from
RealHotStuff.com
0shippingzone.com

...and a bunch of other sites, which I can't currently recall at the moment.

ndscard sale is originally where i linked to. preorder is 50.
 
So this pretty much is what we wanted in hacking the dsi right? Dsi mode homebrew? It may not be a homebrew channel but it seems like the ultimate hack.
 
www.[censored].com?

it is [censored] (can i say this? sorry if i cant.) . found out w/ bing and it's set at 49.99 there.

edit: ha, it already censored it.
 
i'm super interested to see what type of homebrew could come out of this. the problem now is to spark the interest of homebrew devs who have left the ds alone since palib died out. camera and sd access might make all the difference!

I bought my first M3 perfect for $90. This is NOTHING.

my flash2advance was $145 shipped and can only hold 2 GBA games at a time. it was worth every penny.

-another world
 
Nice. If it is hardware based solution, I don't really see many other flashcart manufacturers making another cart to take advantage of it with the advent of the 3DS and devoting more resources to cracking that. However, if it really is common key based then I can easily see manufacturers of DSi compatible flashcarts to update them to be able to access the DSi stuff. I'm hoping it is the latter since I have a SCDS2 but just got some early Christmas money so I might be able to get this if I wanted to.
 
I wonder how they achieved this: IIRC (correct me if I'm wrong) the DSi checks DS cards this way:
- post-DSi-release DS cards (even not "enhanced" ones) have an additional RSA signature, that is ignored by DS Phat and DS Lite.
- the older cards (all DS Mode-only, obviously) are all in a whitelist in the DSi NAND (it should be a list with SHA1 sums of binaries, overlays, header etc).
According to Team Twiizers, all the current DSi flashcards work like this: when the DSi "asks" for header, binaries, overlays etc. to checksum them, they "answer" with the genuine data from a "whitelisted" exploitable game (this is why all of them have an original game icon/title). The DSi launches the "game" (obviously), but when the game binary loads the "exploitable" overlay, the card this time "answers" with the hacked one, and after the exploit is successful, the flashcard code gets executed.
Now, of course no DSi Enhanced game uses the whitelist (it would be foolish), they all use the additional signature. The DSi binary is also encrypted.
Maybe they just put a full DSi Enhanced game on the iEvo, one that loads an exploitable savegame on startup (basically, an "automatic" cooking coach exploit

This is the one feature I'd repeatedly said would redeem TC in my eyes, so I guess I owe them an apology for getting impatient and annoyed with all the recent website/forum/etc. troubles.

Good job. This new development should keep things interesting until something can be done with the 3DS.

how did they unlock DSi mode? why cant the SuperCard team do the same and just implement it into the DS2?

Because they haven't got the common code to unlock the encryption.

how do you know this for sure?
edit: i realized you were probably talking about the supercard team

So we get this, then we get the DSi Common Key from it. Simple as that. All TC are doing is trying to be greedy and keep it for themselves. Oh well. I'll wait til they yank the key out of it.

we don't know this for sure. it could be a hardware exploit, as stated before.

also, its business. of course they are not going to want competitors to get the key right away if they have it

So what if it's a hardware exploit? It's not hard to figure out what it is. The moment the rest of the teams get their hands on this, they'll do exactly what everyone did with the SCDSTWO: Copy it. SCDSTWO with DSi-compatibility? Yes please.
