Hacking G6 Real 16GB

[Euphoria]

G6Real 1 GB is almost $90 so a 2Gb will run you at least the same as a DS-X... also extremely overpriced.



Where did you get this price from? I haven't seen one for more than 70 USD (bamboogaming has it for around 57 USD)

My bad, I checked Divineo.com and seem to have somehow mixed it up with the severely overpriced G6 Lite, which I actually purchased.

Still, $65 for 1Gb of storage (Non upgradable memory) compared to something that does the exact same for $20 less (But with upgradable memory) still seems a bit overpriced IMO, expecially for this guy, who clearly wouldn't have any real use for something such as Download Play.

The reason I bought a g6 real is because it can connect to the wii

 

[Rev2k7]

Yes real imo that g6 is better then the r4 , and m3 the dldi patcher is coming this month/ and 2gb model

really do you need more memory then 2 gigs ?

Ahh... that is a good point. I had no idea about that.

Would this feature possibly be available with R4 firmware updates or is this a hardware issue?

 

[Rev2k7]

im not sure but it may be both idk , but does anyone know the price of 2gb real ?

Not sure as of yet, but I would say that it will cost around the $100 range.

 

[OSW]

i doubt it.

G6real 1gb is $65 Australian from bamboogaming

so 2gb is probably $85 Australian.

which is like 60-65 ish US estimated. (guess conversion)

More like 75 USD

And is it the case that the r4 has slowdown crashing on castlevania where as the g6real has no issues with castlevania due to the internal mem?

Does anyone have any negative opinion of the g6real apart from price, unexpandable memory... How many games can you fit on the 1gb model?

Can someone also answer ... I had a flash2advance for gba years ago.. the long term problem was an internal battery that recorded save games.. after a long time. .this battery died and could not be replaced... Will I find similar issues with the DS backup cards? Do they have an internal ram like gba had for save games which can die after a while?

The capacitor used for saves in the G6DS Real should be rechargeable, so there wouldn't be a problem with that.

Well , in my opinion, the G6 real will be the only one able to connect to Wii.
Its because the save is written in the chip, not in the microsd.
Its like an original cart.

And i think this issue can not be solved in firmware updates of R4, Sc one, EZ V etc..

Well thats my humble opinion, sorry if i talked sh**

 

[OSW]

that's more of a guess than an opinion...

well divineo is selling it for $80 currently. but it's not like they are the cheapest store -_^

have you tested the new firmware?

 

[Haruspex]

As OSW said Divineo.cn announced the price for 16G 80$.

The 8G costs at the same online shop 65$

I fill kind of ripped off! I was expecting to cost around 100$. Only if i waited for the 16G. Whatever...

In my humble opinion it's a very reasonable price considering the build in flash memory.

@ahtin Did they finally released the update? If so where did you get it? Because i don't see any update at the official site here

Yeah i think that its really a guess

, sorry i used the wrong word.

Well if i only had a store selling it for $ 80 in my country i would be pretty happy. Here in my country the G6 real 8g is $ 125.

But i will buy it anyway

, because its good.

All flashcarts with internal memory can do what you are talking about.

just got it yesterday and will test it today

 

[h8uthemost]

What are you talking about ahtin? The new G6 Real firmware is out?

And actually, TeamCyclops is working on this for the Evolution too. I asked them if it was possible to make this feature happen on their slot 1 since it doesn't have onboard memory. And they gave me an explanation on why it will work.

Here is my question:

Here is their answer:

I can assure you that this is purely speculation From the perspective of the game running on the NDS its irrelevant if you're using onboard or external memory, since the game simply tries to read RAW data from the cardbus and providing that these read attempts are intercepted it doesnt make any difference how it works in the background.

The current problem can and will be fixed via a firmware update as soon as time permits.

So it does sound like it can work on every slot 1, and that T.C. will deliver it in a future update. I hope.

If they do, they should release the source code. Even though keeping it exclusive would help sales. Thats something that the entire scene would benefit from.
