Yes, but you can't load ROMs from it (yet)

I was thinking...Some stubbern flashcarts like Cyclo DS might be do able now since I can run the roms unmodified from SD via hbmenu assuming I don't have to do anything extra to get hbmenu to get SD access in NTR mode. Will look into that maybe.

Patch the ds games to run at xl resolution?

Not possible.

 

[Deleted User]

Not possible.

Not necessarily, I believe I saw a discussion on whether or not that's possible a while back and I believe it was said that it was possible, albeit extremely difficult.

 

[Deleted User]

Would it be theoretically possible to have a screenshot/recorder tool in DS mode now with this?

 

[Apache Thunder]

Well my idea with hbmenu didn't pan out. It's arm7 uses thumb code? Not familiar with that so can't add the needed arm7 code.

Genuine question. If this finally happened, would we somehow be able to use the save files we already have from our flashcarts?

In theory, I don't see why not.

I'd imagine all you would have to do is move the save over to your 3DS' SD card.

Yeah, I figured so. It's just that I remember the hell we had with different types of GBA save types, patches and all that crap back and in the day.

And there were saving issues with earlier DS flashcarts as well, no?

Welp, another thread to watch...

Found another bug. In Super Mario 64 DS, if the ARM9 boost is on, opening the system from sleep mode will turn off the DS-Mode backlight. Turning the backlight Off and On in the Options menu will fix it.

Yes! my old piece of shit CycloDS might get resurrected!

Yeah gonna try and get someone to add this to hbmenu. perhaps an autoboot version of hbmenu. arm7 code for hbmenu is wierd. Uses thumb code I think else I'd add it myself. Sure I was able to add SCFG changes to arm9, but arm7 is important and needed for SD access, so no bueno until someone more familiar with thumb code or can replace arm7 with something more standard.
