By finding it.
Actually, I used my eyes and saw it. That's how I found it.

A couple of years ago I got a Game n Watch and wanted to play roms on it, so I googled that and found a thread on GBAtemp, which informed me that it was impossible. So I looked through the threads and found out about emulators for the DS and just stalked the site for a few years till the M3 Real was released. Then stalked to site more for the updates.
One faithful day in September of 09, 3 games were dumped and guest weren't allowed on the site. So I joined to complain about the lack of AP patch.

Used Google to find the best flashcart. Results brought up an Acekard. Knowing little of what the hell that meant, an Acekard forum popped up on a weird site named GBATemp in the search results. AKAIO was dominating at the time so an Acekard 2.1 (2i didn't exist yet) look pretty good. I lurked around & read the AKAIO wiki. Soon new people started to show up who needed info and were too lazy to read the Wiki. I gave the answers provided by the Wiki and went from there.

Joined looking for Wii help.
And to this day I never solved my problem.


But I already had a DS and EDGE.

I then came back looking to find a good flashcart.
I chose the AK2i.

And to this day I now own many flash kits.

I visit the site daily.

Yeah, that's my story.

    The snack that smiles back, Ballsack!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
