Hell. On the first M3L-in-DSL pic the M3 Lite seems to stick out a lot, on the next one it sticks a little, and the third one it fits perfectly in °_°.


(The article is talking about having a high speed TF card, but the translation isn't clear enough...)

Was looking at the internal pics..I see a giant battery... from what I read this is a con for M3 compared to Supercard forgot for what reasons. But that might turn some people off from this product. Right now the price of almost 80$ turns me away, I could get like a Supercard Lite and 1 Gig MicroSD for 8$ more...

Lolz you could get a Supercard Lite + Superkey + 32 Meg Micro SD instead of a M3 Lite, lolz... hey at least you could download loads of homebrew or download 1 commercial rom. lolz That last pic is the dust cover. Either that or all the pics are fake.

Can you explain why battery is a bad thing? I know its used for saving but why is it so bad?

My guess is that all(?) flashcarts need a battery to maintain saves inside the internal memory(not the memorycard).
A battery shouldn't be something bad but if the battery is not rechargable in some way the saves might be lost if the M3 runs out of internal power.
This might be the con that neojei and Shinji is crying about.

Anyways... I'm waiting for a M3 Lite to arrive but as no store has them in stock I guess I'll have to wait. Sold my EZ Flash 4 Lite today so no NDS gaming for me or my gf for a while.

I'm not crying about it, I'm just wondering why it needs a battery. I heard Supercard Lite doesn't use a battery. From what I know that battery is there to power up the SRAM where the save games are saved during game play, then you either restart to have it write onto the card or then ext time you power up it writes it to the card. Whereas Supercard Lite somehow just writes the save to the card. Anyways what I'm crying about is the price of the M3 that some stores are assuming. Lol. Was there any official word on it really being about 80$?

I just think that the battery is only required for the GBA side to make saving easier because for the supercard, you need to manually save a GBA save through a in game reset and into the saver menu..

I have absolutely no idea why wouldn't they (M3/G6) give the user the choice for direct saving for DS games though on top of the safer battery saving method.. Would be a nice option since both companies ([M3/G6] vs. Supercard) are ripping ideas off each other..

I was crying cause I hate batteries. They remind me of death and death reminds me of dying. I'm allergic to death, it makes me die. Batteries die, therefore batteries remind me of death....ok, so is not that funny...

Its no big deal, I'm still going to get 2 M3 Lites (one for me, one for fiancee =D)

Wish I could afford two M3 Lites. My gf still has a DS Phat, maybe with the release of these the older flash cards may go down a few dollars, then I'll snag one for her when I get a Lite model.

Which shop should I preorder at... I have heard bad stuff about DiviNeo. RealHotStuff and BambooGaming I have never heard of and shop01 is overpriced compaired with the 3 shops above...

I wanted a GBA shell as well (no lite yet) so was a bit miffed. I am gonna try fitting it in a GBA cart when I get it. (This should be a mess!!)

If you preorder at Realhotstuff, don't forget to use the coupon code for 5% off.
This is my first time ordering from there, but I have heard many great things about them.

I decided to get M3 Lite after using my friend's SCLite for a few days.
There are a few reasons I decided against SC Lite, but they're all minor. Such as some GBA games don't work at all, a lot of GBA games having slowdown & the chance of losing the MicroSD since it loads from the top...
...but on the other hand, it's difficult to lose the SCLite itself because once it's in your DS, it's hard to get out!

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
