Hello I have a few questions.

1.

I see that There is a memory expansion cart avaliable that inserts into slot 2.
I read that the Nintendo DS Browser and Certain Games can take advantage of this Added Memory.

Which games take advantage of this Extra Memory?

2. If I were to buy a Slot 2 Flashcart such as the G6 which has some RAM, Is there certain homebrew that can take advantage of that RAM.

Thanks,
Kidcash.

Oh, and there's some homebrew like DSLinux that can use it too...

Thanks,

I am unsure of which Slot2 card to buy, I am not sure how much RAM the G6 has.
I see the CycloDS Slot2 Card has 32 Megabytes of RAM, which would be good for any homebrew designed to take advantage of that RAM.

Do you have any suggestions for a Slot 2 Card?

Thanks.

I would recommend the M3 Lite. It's a expensive cart, but also a good one.

Every cart that can play most of the GBA roms has 32 MB RAM. There are also a few (like the M3 Pro) that have only 4 MB of RAM. I don't think many homebrew supports that...

If you don't already have one, I would recommend purchasing a slot-1 cart.

Then get the EZF3in1 and use that as RAM expansion.

I have a G6 DS real Slot1 Card.

I would prefer to get a good Slot 2 Card that does not Stick out of the slot.
Any other suggestions than the M3 Lite? For some reason the online store I buy my products at only has the CycloDS Slot 2 Card.

I suggest a Slot1 like the R4 or M3DSS and an EZFlash 3in1 Expansion Pack. It all fits flush and give you RAM, rumble, GBA and DS.

Alternatively, an R4/M3S + Supercard Lite forms a worthy combo, with RAM for your browser and GBA compatibility (which is not very great though)

I suggest the EZ Flash 3 in 1 as well.

I just got mine, and I'm currently enjoying GBA support, plus rumble and RAM. Not to mention, it's easy to use.
