I am wondering if the patching process for GBA and NDS games on the M3 is a hassle or not?Yeah, agreed.Its DS compatibility is much better than GBA. Autosaves DS games perfectly. Not GBA, where a button combo or sometimes power-cycle is needed.
Nice, have you tested DS games at all? Jump Ultimate Stars? Mario Party DS? And any thing of the sort?Good question. Not many people talk about possible issues with specific GBA games on M3. If I had confirmation beyond any doubt F-Zero Climax both saves properly and has absolutely NO slowdown with it...
Oh, well you can still maybe tell me if your Wifi and ds download play work with your slot 2?Me? I only have just that old Supercard CF and a Passcard 3 to boot DS mode. Can't help with any other cards, sorry.
I see. So slot 1s have the better compatibly when it comes to linking.Wifi tends to work fine. Download play is more iffy. It may work on some games, not all.
GBA>GC and DS>Wii features are rare. Only one I've tested that works flawless is Mario Golf Toadstool Tour to Mario Golf Advance Tour.
But not linking that involves Pokemon Colosseum, Box, XD, or Battle Revolution. The Fire Emblem ones don't seem to either.
Do you know the linkage compatibility with M3 perfect for GBA to GBA, GBA to Gamecube, GBA Slot to NDS for some DS games, NDS to wii, and the DS download play/wifi you already answered thanks.Huh? No. The only Wii game that links to DS is Pokemon Battle Revolution.
All other relevant console to handheld linking is GBA and GameCube. Which the DS hardware doesn't allow, flashcart or not, since it has no link port to begin with.
Actually Geometry Wars was just released, which is the second game to support Wii - DS Linkage.
Also, so does your Supercard allow GBA to GBA or GBA to Gamecube connection or not? Let's just say you have all the cables necessary and you are using it on a GBASP.
I see. I would imagine the M3 to have pretty good "linkage" since almost 100% of roms work on it anyway.Huh? No. The only Wii game that links to DS is Pokemon Battle Revolution.

Actually that's what I've been trying to find out, I've asked on the EZ Flash forums about the EZ Flash product's multiplayer capabilities, it'll probably take some time...
Dang, so not too great GBA linkage but still a great flash cart. I think it will be worth the $60. I just want to completely make sure before buying such an expensive device.Probably under 50% if it is anything like other carts...
Nicely said but I am looking for a cart that still updates their NDS patchers so if M3 team still update their slot 2 patchers to work with ALL the new games then I am sold. UNLESS OF COURSE I FIND AN ACEKARD. Which I can't find.Well I keep trying to avoid saying the M3 is a great flash cart because I haven't had any experience with it. I have used the M3 Lite before, but frankly was not all that impressed. I was hit by a barrage of bugs, but there are quite a few of my friends telling me that I was probably unlucky and used one of the bad versions and getting hit by all the bugs at once. I actually really do believe that this is the case because there is no way that the M3 could be this popular if every user had M3 Lite's that crashed every other minute. Which is why I am trying to get another M3 to try out.
On the other hand, I have had lots of experience with the EZ Flash 4, which is a spectacular cart.
Are you willing to sell your acekard? lol jk. but I really want one that badly.Yes M3 team still updates their loaders, I'm pretty sure all new games will work with it, at least they should within a few days after launch.
Very nice. If you guys ever have a Jump or Pokemon tourny then I am down and prolly have a good shot at winning.Lol the AceKard is pretty cool, but to be honest, the CycloDS Evolution is still at the top for me.
Actually, AceKard team just shipped out a second AceKard for our site, to the winner of our Worms Open Warfare 2 tournament. It is unfortunately timing that our site went down now, but well, it was free for him. I'm sure we'll get some new flash carts to send out for our next tournament. Stay tuned!Â
I heard the M3 Perfect and the EZ Flash has way better battery life than the Supercard. Either way, battery drain happens with any cart, even retail carts. M3 Perfect is probably one of the best slot 2's in terms of battery life.
Ummm the M3 Perfect can be used as a RAM expansion...
