I have my first Acekard 2 and 8gb Kingston MicroSD card arriving any day now. And I wanted to get kind of a list of what someone new to Acekard should do first.
Here is what I've gathered thus far:
1. Load AKAIO as the firmware (do I have to do anything special, or just put it on my microSD card? Also, will this work with an 8gb card? I've read conflicting posts on this.)
2. What's the best way to organize roms? (I was thinking three folders - DS, NES, SNES) (then within each folder will be subcategories, such as A-E, F-J...)
3. The roms I have either end in .zip or .7z. Do I have to decompress these before using them? Also, what about renaming them, lots have the rom number infront of the file? In terms of organization, what do most people do?
4. Load emulators for NES & SNES - which I gathered the best are nesDS & SNEmulDSv06a
Am I missing anything? Please help enlighten the noob.
Thanks!
By the way, is there any chance the Acekard 2 will ever offer support for Save states? When I've used emulators on my PC, I found these came in handy. I didn't realize the Acekard didn't have this feature till after I ordered it.
