Hacking G6 lite first impressions

[ron555]

Thanks lenselijer!

Beautiful layout!

Okay.. I am in love with the touch interface so far. I hope some of the official G6 Lite resellers get stock soon so I can order one.

Thanks for the pictures!

Normal G6 supposedly occasionally corrupts GBA save games. Should you play some GBA games see if that still happens or was already corrected.

The interface is pretty sweet ,I have to admit.Thank you for posting all this.

Awesome post! Anyone have theirs shipped from winsunx yet?

Looks like winsunx has an extremely limited first batch of G6 Lites.
I ordered mine on the 21st (the day they started taking pre-orders) and i havent even gotten a tracking number yet.
So looks like only a very lucky few are gonna get it quick, the rest of us have to wait an extra week or so

I just read on winsux.com that g6 is releasing on the 29th. So it might stand to reason that wunsunx will not even be getting their stock until next week. But since they already have a bunch of photos up (might be from a preview or from g6 site) they might already have it. Ya never know until ya get it i guess.

Me too. by the 22nd I had paid and by the 23rd confirmed everything. I still haven't received an tracking number.

So wait...this thing doesn't need a flash card?

Forvige me for being such a newbie at all this.

While I'm posting in this thread (not worth making a new one), if I get a Superkey (http://www.winsunx.com/index.php?mod=720) do I still need to flash my DSL?

This thing is a flash card.

No you dont need to flash your ds, if you have a supercard.

 

[AmishSlayer]

What pass device are you using? flashme7, superkey also works

According to him it does.

EDIT: Man...so just buy a superkey and this baby, put some backups on the G6, pop it and the Superkey in and boot up? That's it?

 

[notchristopher]

Pretty much.

Congratulations, you've just discovered the entire purpose of this website.

Well I knew about the "modding" scene of the DS for a while now and as far as I knew up until now you had to flash your DS to get backups, homebrews, media, etc working. Not only did you have to flash it but you needed at least 3 separate pieces of equipment (Flash card, flash cart and a passme device) - right?

I'm just trying to get the specifics down for some of the newer equipment out there before I go out and buy my stuff.

You are almost there grasshoper..

You can either flash it or just keep using the passme device.

If your flash cart have built in memory like the g6 lite, there is no need for a flash card of any sort.

Hey lenselijer, awesome job so far!
Could you please tell us something more about the GBA support, a lot of people don't know if it's OK or not, G6 original did not have very good GBA support.

Also, does scummvm DS work? this one >>

You can test with this game (it's the easiest) - Gobliiins

Last question, as you can see I live in Belgium
Did you have to pay extra import cost fees? It's sent from America or wait, China, right?

 

[lenselijer]

just put pokemon emerald on the g6lite for my little brother. I just pressed OK at the patch options screen and saving works fine.

I will try some emulators in a few hours (when he is done playing pokemon)

 

[AmishSlayer]

I'm eager to hear about emulators and how they work with the G6.

As for a general question...what about emulators in general for the DS "modding" scene? Could I potentially play SNES backups on my DS?

I believe there is a DS snes emulator that plays super mario world at full speed? Sorry I don't have the link I just know it exists.

Please search a little bit on this forum before asking such a general question in this thread
