The red button is for switching games one advantage the DS series has over this card you can have more than 10 roms this card only allows for 10 games you would have to carry a 2nd micro SD for more than 10 games
I can't believe people still don't get it. It's 10 games per sky3ds card. Not per micro sd. You have to buy one flashcart for every 10 games you wish to pirate. 100 games = 10 sky3ds cards + 10 micro sd cards. At $90 each for the sky3ds alone that's $900. They are seriously smoking crack if they expect to sell alot of these.

10 games for 1 card? Are they serious? Don't get me wrong, everything is better then nothing, but this is.. well, it's just not practical.

Let's say I don't know the game and put it on the card, then I notice that the game is just not for me - congratulations! You wasted 9 dollars [archievment unlocked] :mellow:

Next time, watermark your video with the GBATemp logo. It's being used to sell on R4Gateway.com (The most unoriginal name ever that just screams scam).

Do you think I should file a copyright claim? :tpi:

I jest, I jest - it's just a video, re-ups are no big deal. Anywho, the review is almost ready, I just have to test a few more games for the compatibility list. ;)

This seems like a throwback in 3DS scene and people should not support this kind of policy. I just hope someone appears with a better choice than that one soon.

Can't wait to see how the market looks like in 1 year from now. I'm sure it'll be full of competitors, lower prices and more options.
Very entertaining week for the 3DS

Ah, and I was hoping it can bypass region lock.

It is an impressive achievement, but it remains to be seen if this card can survive future firmware update. Also the 10 game limits also needs to be addressed in the future.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
