Hacking New life for the Datel Games 'n' Music!

[go185]

After a looooong wait, a DLDI for the Datel GnM is finally released (by none other than Chishm!).

Get it via this link or in the download section here on GBATemp!

(oh, and by the way, v2 is already out!)

I get it, this allows the playback of great homebrew... But isn't a proper loader needed to run other applications?

 

[go185]

Now the GnM can do everything a regular flashcart can do, except play commercial roms!

All DLDI homebrew now works on it!

There must be at least 7 or 8 people that are really happy about this.

Good news for some people out there that have this or that haven't gotten a cart yet but would like a quick taste. Think about it. Let's say you don't have a flash cart and you want something right now for say.... playing NES roms or hell, even something LEGAL. Bam, there ya go. You can go out to the store, get this and you're ready.

EDIT: IF you can actually find this in-stores.

At least in the US, I've seen it at nearly every Walmart I've been to in multiple states, and a handful of Circuit Citys and Best Buys

Same here. I've seen it, along with the Max Media Dock, at almost every major store's video game section.

Well, at least I can tell my friends to buy it so they can watch some vids and maybe play a few SNES games.

The thing comes with a 128MB TF card, so its advised to get at least a 512MB TF card for music, movies, and homebrew.

however moonshell won't work as smooth as on other carts apparantly. Due to some bottlenecks of the cart.

I could just buy 10 R4s in a batch

, which would be cheaper and you could play roms
