All this rant because for a change 1 frickin' game doesn't work??!?!?!?, and it is even in Japanese?!?!?
I am a DS-X owner for more than a year now and all I have to say to you is:
I play a lot more with my PSP.
Besides? what is Zelda anyway? just a pitiful pile of lies...
err.... wait, that is Dracula's definition of a MAN....
Not its not just this one game. This is the straw that broke the camels back basically. Ive tried again and again to justify me paying for this but I just cant do it anymore. It was such a waste of money, money that I wont be able to get back. I even overlooked their messed up firmware that ruined my Pokemon Diamond save(over 14 hours of playtime).
Oh and Zelda isnt just one game, its THE game for the DS. Its the heaviest of the heavy hitters for the DS.
What the hell are you talking about? It's 110$ for 2GB.All I can say is for anyone ever looking to buy a chip for the DS, DON'T get the DS-X. It is a headach with eveything. ESPECIALLY for the initial price of near 150$ for it, for 512mb.
Get one of the newer cards, I purchased 2 R4's both work great came with 1gb for under 45$ cdn (each). From Dealextreme.
The advantage to the DS-X I have found is ONLY the download play. Anything and everything else is simply just found the same or better on a differnt card, i.e. R4.
The updates are pretty lacking, and almost no care for updates of what the 'users' want.
Love to see support eventually for Sim City, and if this is a new way of save games for the DS, they will have to get movin on it.

I think almost all owners are beginning or have regretted buying the card after seeing the 'Xtreme' support for other cards.lol they're so lame. my thread got deleted on their forum for saying i regretted buying their card. Freedom of speech FTL
I, for one, don't regret buying mine. I haven't had any problems with it, other than the odd unrecognized card time every now and then. I fail to see the problem you guys are making it out to be; patience isn't that hard to come by, and there's plenty out there to keep you occupied until they manage to fix it. Granted, I was waiting for this game, too, but it's not worth all the bitching, just because the game doesn't work instantly.
I can see why they don't allow talk of ROMs. They're North American based, and they can get sued into oblivion for supporting talk of ROMs. Nobody wants that.
A patch for 2Mbit saves will come out soon. 'Till then, keep your pants on and don't burn down the house.
cake takenlol they're so lame. my thread got deleted on their forum for saying i regretted buying their card. Freedom of speech FTL
It's already been mentioned that new scores are on the way I believe....and yet this product gets a 9.5/10 rating from this site's review. To me this kind of support will be enough to bring the score down to 7.

And about the DS-X team taking a month or 4, I'm trying to be a little optimistic. As I was suggesting earlier, it's hard to judge and slam a company just because an update didn't come out 24 hours after a game or two came out that doesn't function correctly on their card. Even if they haven't had the best track record. This goes for any group and their flash kits and remember, there are a few more notorious companies that have provided MUCH worse support. I still say give them 5 to 7 days before you pick up the pitchforks.
+1, you got me covered.I, for one, don't regret buying mine. I haven't had any problems with it, other than the odd unrecognized card time every now and then. I fail to see the problem you guys are making it out to be; patience isn't that hard to come by, and there's plenty out there to keep you occupied until they manage to fix it. Granted, I was waiting for this game, too, but it's not worth all the bitching, just because the game doesn't work instantly.
