biggles the megabyte:
Sorry you heard a bit late that PassCard 3 was needed for NDS playback.

crazy:
If you haven't already, yes, reformat.

muhammad:
First, please, no caps or double postings. Now, could you elaborate as to what exactly the issue is? Are you using the G6 Movie Player, Media-Extend or the G6 Moonshell? Is your movie a .dpg?

Thanks for the great guide TheSpade.

I have the G6 lite and Passcard3 and have come to a big problem that I'm wondering if anyone has come across or knows how to solve. Recently my save games on the NDS aren't saving. I'll either save and the next time I enter the game, it'll be as if I never played or the game will just refuse to save, giving me a 'save failed' message or something similar.

I've read your faq which advises charging the g6 lite and I've done this. I actually left the g6 lite plugged into the USB of my pc for several hours but no luck.

What's wierd is that, GBA games are saving fine, the problem is just on the NDS side of things.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Post Removed. Problem solved. My sillyness

 

[shineget]

my g6 lite is only 256 (about) mbytes big, should it not be closer to 512?

Did you remove the pdaDS folder? That takes up around 80MB and is not needed, especially since it's not even in English. Other than that you should have around 512MB of space.

 

[shineget]

yeah, i did delete it. But according to windows i have 11MB used, 238MB available and 249MB capacity.

eidt: with nothing added by me.

Theres only one thing that I really wanna know :
How many DS ROMs I'll be able to put in the G6(4Gb), approx.?
Just so I can have a space idea, lets put that I'm filling the cartridge with only ROMs(DS ROMs)..

 

[Destructobot]

The actual capacity of the G6 lite is about 499 megabytes (522,000,000 bytes or so) so you can fit a minimum of seven 64 meg games without trimming the roms. Roms seem to trim to about 75% - 80% of their original size on average in my experience.

DS games range from 8 to 128 megabytes, with the majority of the big name games being 64 megs.

I usually have 10 - 12 DS games and 10 or so GBA games on my G6.

OK i have a G6lite & Superkey and most games work grand but some dont, Mario Hoops and the new Tony Hawk won't work. Someone told me i needed to do this:

Updating your G6 Lite Loader
1. Connect your G6 onto the UBurner and insert into your USB Slot.
2. Copy the g6loader.sys and g6verify.sys files to your G6's root directory.
3. Safely remove the UBurner from your PC and insert the G6 Lite into your DS.
4. Boot your G6 Lite in GBA Mode.
5. When the disclaimer in green text appears, hold down A + B + Select + Start.
6. Select Yes.
7. Allow it to update (do not power down your DS).
8. When you reach the G6 GBA Main Menu, you are done. You may delete the 2 sys files if desired.




And i done that and it worked, but the games still won't play???

Yep, the latest update still doesn't support those games apparently...

Some updates to the FAQ section concerning recently revealed info on G6 Lite 8GBit and G6 Lite Pro.

 

[porkwithrice]

this is a kool FAQ but i'm having touble playing snes on g6 flash. you guys know anything about it? ppls say it dosent sapport and some say it dose. G6 said it dose but I haven't been able to play snes or nes on g6 flash lite.. i try dling the snesDS and the others but it seem like it only work on the pass NDS and not on NDS lite. can anyone help me with this problem please???

 

[TheSpade]

There are 2 Super NES emulators: SNESDS, which is discontinued and SnezziDS, currently under development. Forget SNESDS unless someone revives the project. As for SnezziDS, give the author(s) time to get a LOT of polish applied. Super NES emulation on DS is going to be a waiting game for quite sometime.

 

[test84]

what is that everyone saying that you should use chineese version if you want something with english?
does this 4.6c solve that problem or what?
TIA.

is they some thing wrong with it

thanks xx

No, and search on this topic that's been covered over a thousand times. It is 4 gigabits not 4 gigabytes, 4 gigabits = 500 megabytes approx. 8 bits = 1 byte.
