Also, I think I know how Ninty is going to do this one: When titles are copied to the SD card, it will save the MD5/SHA1 hash to the NAND. When it's copied back to the DSi, if the hash doesn't compare correctly, it will error out.
What? I did not understand any of that. I'm not too tech-savvy for that yet.
A hash checks the integrity of the file as in if they're the same or not if the hash is different than the original then it will give an error.
Oh, I see. He's saying that if Nintendo made a new update, when DSiWare is copied to the SD card, it would make a check for it, and if it was different when the data was copied back to the DSi, wouldn't because of that check. But, the only issue I see from that is that it would use a lot of memory in the DSi. A DSiWare title of 100 blocks would make at least 25 extra blocks for a check. That would mean 25% less memory. That would be a loss for Nintendo.
