Hi,

Just got my DSTWO and I'm having a very strange problem where all my major emulators work (GBA, CATSFC, Genesis, etc.), but when running an NDS game, my dual screens just go white.

I don't know if ROM formats have been updated but these NDS ROMs still work fine on the M3Lite on my DSLite.

I'm using a SANDISK Ultra 64GB Class 10 SDXC formatted with fat32formatter, on a Super Mario Bros. 25th Anniversary DSi XL unit.

DSTwo plastic housing also kinda coming apart... yechh...

Advice? Similar experiences? Should I return it?

Thanks for asking.

The DSTWO firmware is v1.25, the latest one, which supports DSi 1.45 and 3DS 8.1.10-19x, and the EOS is the latest v1.11_2012_1212 released on 12-24-2012.

My Anniversay Edition DSi XL is version 1.4U.

Are you running the games in Clean mode or Patch mode?
Do you have cheat codes activated in such games?
Corrupt NDS save files often tend to prevent the game from opening (happened to me on WarioWare D.I.Y)

Clean mode selected from the DSTWO menu, Cheat codes OFF in the DSTWO menu, Multisave set to 0, save files moved into a seperate directory on the flashcard.

It still only loads to two white screens when I click on them.

Another interesting note, my NDS games show up with corrupted icons: http://i.imgur.com/O40Hx6y.jpg

Resolved. The NDS files were too "old"; from too long ago. Found new versions of same ones and they worked flawlessly.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
