Popular Science magazine (Oct 2009) has an article on DS homebrew and features the Acekard 2i... eheheh
(Page 70-71 btw)

Found a copy- rarely have I seen a more advert laden magazine but an interesting piece for a mainstream print magazine.

Wonder if they know that you can pirate using the Acekard 2i.

. I bet they don't know about the ongoing cat and mouse battle between Nintendo and Piraters.

Psh. They're smart people, of course they would know you can play backups on the Acekard, but obviously they won't mention it.
However, I think it would have been smarter for them to feature a homebrew-only flash cart like the Datel Games n' Crap.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
