Hacking I absolutely CANNOT AFFORD A CYCLO

[ENDscape]

don't be ashamed of living with your mom at 19 rofl. i'm 18, i'm living with my parents, and still planning to till i finish university, and secure a job (22 or 23). its a financially smart choice, convenient, comforting, and relaxing environment (though sometimes i wished i lived on rez)

YES living with your parents ftw. Im also 18 and college is expensive, so i dont plan on moving away, yet.

Same here for staying at home. The unfortunate thing is that I don't think I'll be able to afford college for years. I graduated high school with good grades and got a very decent score on the PSAT (haven't taken the real SAT yet). But I just can't afford college and REALLY can't afford taking up a loan. I don't hate my mom or mind living with her (not even really embarrassed with it). She just gets unreasonable sometimes.

But this is getting a bit offtopic isn't it.

Money making idea:
Step 1 - Buy flash carts off DealExtreme
Step 2 - Sell locally for huge profit
Step 3 - Use profit to buy Cyclo

Kaching!?!?!

Plus dealx ships slow. So unless you can wait to buy a fc, thats now a good idea.

Some people are complaining on DealExtreme that their orders for the DS-One aren't shipping:

Do you think they have fixed this? It says it's in stock and will be shipped tomorrow, but is this true?

Im in western Canada, and every order I have made from them has shipped quickly, received in less than two weeks. I would have gone with the EDGE card personally, but I think you should be fine.

I have one more question. Can I use R4 save files (.SAV) with the Supercard DS-One?

Exactly, I don't understand why so much people move out as soon as they are 18. Living with your parents, though socially not accepted, is much more efficient. You don't have to worry about bills, rent, food expenses.. internet and computer? Lol. I wouldn't move out until I can be financially independent.

Dude, why have you ruled out the EZ Flash V? Helluva cart that EZ5.

I've heard it's got problems and isn't very good. I've decided to get a Supercard DS-One. I'll be happy to listen to your reasons as to WHY it's so good though.

And can someone tell me if R4 saves (sav) will work on the Supercard? I asked that before, but I didn't get an answer yet.

I have a slot 2 card (3-in-1), but I thought the EZV was a slot 1 card. I need a slot-1 card. And as you can see from the title screen, I'm not getting a Cyclo. I might later, but only if the Supercard is left in the dust.

Just sell a kidney or something.
Cyclo's are worth it.

I don't think my mother would like that. Oops. Now you all know. I'm a 19 year old guy who lives with his (single parent) mother. Tear me out if you want.

And I can get $25 (give or take a dollar), but I have to support my mom with all the rest of the income. I've worked for months, but it doesn't seem to help much and she's not grateful. I can't let us sell the house though. She'd have a breakdown (and what do you do in a breakdown? Well, in my mother's situation, BREAK things).

I'm 21 and in the same situation. Anyways for just $1 more you can buy the Supercard, they're $26 on DealExtreme and closest to the Cyclo's features you can possibly get. Seriously the only things you get for $50 more are built-in slowmotion(SC cheat merging can do that), ingame brightness, Wii connectivity for the only 3 games that use it, and a faster nicer UI. Sure they're great bonuses but seriously look at the cost... and the SC does have its pros over Cyclo such as faster realtime save/load and builtin media support.

I have 3 that you should probably look in to.

Acekard 2. Why? Because it's easy-to-use, looks nice, and works.

EDGE. Why? Because it is just the the Cyclo excepts stripped down a little. It basically just plays games and everything you would expect it to do beside the extra features.

SCDS-1. Why? Because it is the same as the Cyclo in features more-or-less. It's just a little messy and frustrating.

I have the EZ5 Plus, EDGE, Acekard 2. They are all cards worth looking into.

 

[sidneyyoung]

EZ5 would look an awefull lot better if it actaully had a support site in English. EZ used to have the 'Sosuke' site for English speakers but that has dissapeared now.

If you want the most features and 'brilliant' longterm support, the scds1 is a wise choice.

 

[granville]

I decided on the Supercard DS-One and just ordered it a while ago!

I don't mind a mess, slow GUI, or confusing interface as long as it plays games and generally well updated.

Prostitution is an easy way to make money.
Right?

Save the money and buy it, if that's what you want - people really have this sense of entitlement.

And I've seen it said a lot recently, but caps lock is not cruise control for cool.

 

[Flawsdraw]

Hate people that make these threads, YOU CAN AFFORD use your brain, sell bootleg DVDs or find people that want to buy bootleg Wii or 360 games, buy some shitty cheap discs aslong a they work you can sell them, make money that way, I have no job, I have a baby, I get £30 a week to support me and my baby from benefits but yet I still pay my mum £100 a month for living here, still buy my TDK DVD-R spending roughly £45 a month on them, I got 2 M3DS Real Cards, A chipped Wii with a catalog of games, a DS Lite, a custom built PC etc etc... Sour grapes this sounds like to me, money isn't a problem to make if you know where to look. can't sit and moan saying you don't want to pirate because you got a DS with a Flashcart. Scared of getting in trouble with the police? then don't get paranoid and it don't usually happen.

 

[berlinka]

Go for the Supercard. It can also play GBA games, so thats one good reason for you there.

If you help me, feel free to spread my ridicule and shame to everyone you can. I deserve it![/b]

Well, there we go. You're a pathetic, miserable twat!

*aw man that feels good*

 

[Lumstar]

Just get an R4 and be done with it.
