May I ask why they call "booting from GBA-slot" and "Flashme" and stuff a "nightmare"? o.o


1st rule of marketing ... find a way to make the consumer feel like what he's got now, no matter how good it is, totally sucks.

2nd rule of marketing ... nobody talks about the 1st rule of marketing.

I'm a cheapass gamer, so I try not to let that rule #1 bother me. Fer instance, I just bought 4 Xbox games each ranked 9+ by IGN for under $50 shipped. I win! I'm still plenty happy with my slot 2 cart, but when the Slot1's have been out long enough to get the kinks worked out, I'll take a look at them. I think the best feature they offer is that they'll work in any DS including any future redesign. (Yes, I think Nintendo may release one more DS redesign)

Of what's out there RIGHT NOW, this is clearly the leader.

i dont think there is going to be another redesign of the NDS, but i do see whatever "TNBT" that nintendo does will be backwards compatable with this, making it a good dual purpose thing. just like old GBA stuff could be used on the DS.

You try being chinese, and explaining flashme/passme/nopass/ds security bypassing to english "children" who just want to play instead of think... try it for just one day and you will have nightmares, and give the other person a horror story, I bet. I have been on the other side of the coin, trying to explain to chinese/italian/spanish/insertlanguagehere people who are using babbling fish to do their talking... it just doesn't go well at all.

At any rate, the EZ4 lite compact with no NAND flash sells for like 25USD, this thing won't have NAND flash, so who knows - it could be something for any "cheap a$$ gamer"

using babbling fish

You mean babel fish, right?

And another DS Linker...

Tired of these...



you have an alternative?

Well every week there's a new linker coming out or being announced. Sick and tired of it...
At least if they didn't copy what already exist, yeah, that would be better I think...

 

[MrFats]

looks promising. I too, will wait until the bugs and what not are worked out of the Slot 1 solutions better. But they are on my wish list for the next year, (that, a DS Lite black, and a Wii). For now, though, I'm happy with my DS phat, and M3 CF.

 

[inter4ever]

The features are great and it comes in black so it will be perfect for my black DSlite. The only thing remaining is that one group releases the gba lite pack that includes ram and vibration so it can be used with opera and other games easily.

this is just what happens whenever there's a new generation or iteration of product coming onto the scene. Everybody wants a piece of the action, so unknowns try to jump in early and establish a foothold on the beach.

In another 7-8 months, the herd will thin back to no more than 3-4 main products.

Removed, repeated reply.

the kings of gba, the kings of slot-2, and now the kings of slot-1?

man i can't imagine the price on this from the EZ-Team... $20-$30?

 

[digital_sin]

please god, let this be "the one". PLEASE!

 

[Monkey01]

Hmm, that hybrid mode, do you think you'll need to patch the rom in windows or will ez-v patch it on the fly or something?

"The eWin team also announced, that alongside the eWin 3, they will release their own branded rumble and memory expansion paks as an alternative to the official Nintendo ones, these are estimated to be priced at around only $6!"

[somekool]

so is this the best thing to buy?

 

[Elrinth]

Wow, I'm looking forward to see how this one does on the homebrew-front... As EZ4 failed miserably

It does work, but not good enough

I will probably get myself one sometime march or later... depends on when its released... Only game I can't play ATM is Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. I will probably buy that game anyways so no need for upgrading flashcard just yet.

Lol. Don't forget Mahjong Fight Club

Damnit >_<
And i just got a DS-X too, i do love it, the only thing i hate is the size... if i knew this was comin' out i might've waited.
Dont get me wrong, DSX IS the best 1-slot solution right now (acekard and ninjapass suck :-/)
But man... I assume this will be able to play DS-to-DS like dsx w/o flashing, which is one of the reasons i got it.


DS-X fanboi alert! seriously, from what i've heard, DS-X doesn;t actually have perfect Downlaod play to unflashed DS's which is kind bad...
i could be wrong though, don't quote me.

QUOTE(ahsan @ Dec 12 2006, 02:35 AM)

Does this new flashkit support the drag and drop feature, like the one of the DS-X?
I'm thinking of getting a DS-X, but if this is just as easy to use and has external memory, i'll be getting the EZ-Flash V.

Dude can't you read!! i says it has drag and drop feature but also patching if u wish to potentially increase compatability, speed, trainers, mods, etc.
