Homebrew Dsi Link? Can it brock my dsi?

[Patrick1704]

Hello, i have a question:
Can the dsi exploit called Dsi Link brick my Dsi when i install the installdsilink.nds ?

I have a Dsi with firmware 1.3E
The flashcard i use is a R4i- sdhc

And my second question is:
Can i run Dsi games or only Homebrews with Dsi Link?
And how big can the filesize be?


And sorry for my very bad english

I have installed DSi link on my launch day DSi, it has worked perfectly.

There is still a risk of it damaging your wifi flash chip or DSi (like any custom firmware/flashcarts) "zero risk does not exist".

Also it only works on early DSi, this exploit was patched on newer DSi and XL.


Finally you have one of the exploited game right? you don't plan to run it from your flashcart?

Because if you ran it on a DS Mode flashcart it will not work (or maybe in DS mode).

If you want to make it work on DSi mode you need either the genuine retail game or a cycloDSi (but then there's no point using this exploit since cycloDSi offers full DSi Mode).
