Hacking CycloDS reviewed

[Scorpei]

I've finished my review of the CycloDS, a new GBA media adapter for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS lite using miniSD and microSD cards.



The Cyclo team is a newcomer to the scene, with their only (released) product line being the CycloDS. So how well have they done? The CycloDS series is composed out of two (GBA slot) solutions. One made for the normal DS (and GBA) using miniSD and one specific for the Nintendo DS lite using microSD. Although they have been announced quite some time ago they have only recently become available. The Cyclo team have also announced another solution (no information released) and a Wii mod-chip.

From the looks of it, Supercard clone.

The menu, patcher program, design, all resemble the Supercard line of products.

Hurray, a supercard clone with outdated software, just what we've all been waiting for...
btw, they're the same cyclo guys from the wiinja on a quicksolder card thingy ain't they?

Unless these are selling for next to nothing their never going to sell. With the slot 1 solutions out no one is interested in slot 2 anymore.

It's about 15 euro's (not sure if that's including shipping).

Yes I did. Only testes using the default settings.

Looks alright, just another Supercard. Any chance of being able to use Supercard software on this cart?

probably. roms patched using the cyclo patching software can run on a supercard, i'm willing to bet the firmware is interchangeable too.

Good idea to also review these devices, I'm always interested

Any change for you to review the other 2 versions of the card?
