oh yeah, you might wanna consider adding

Rudolph's GBAXploader as a flashcart firmware? No def, since I don't use it.

EDIT: akaio.net doesn't list a def but it does say to use it if you're having problems running Slot2 games...

This is a guide aimed at people that DON'T know stuff, so the terms used need to be ones that normal people understand.

WiFi - Wirelessly over the internet.

 

[Shinigami357]

Good point. I concede that one.

Nitro: DS's codename. Thus original DS parts and accessories use an NTR-XXX ID.
???: DS Lite's codename. DS Lite parts/accessories are USG-XXX.
Twelve: DSi's codename. DSi parts/accessories are TWL-XXX.

Don't know about the DSi XL/LL.

Did a search (didn't know about Twelve) and I saw someone saying that USG represented the Japanese for "thin model"; Usugata or something (unsure on spelling). That could be it.

Wait, seriously? TWL means Twelve?
Huh. What's the XL's?

 

[Rydian]

Yup, Protokun seems to be right on that (taken from the same quote I got the TWL thing from).

Yeah, TWL is the Twelfth project that specific group designed.

XL's, I don't even know it's designation. Somebody needs to find a part number for it.

Updated, thanks guys. Anyone have any information on the GBAXploder?

DSTTi works on the DSi.Made by the TT team.

Isn't that a clone? I'll add it if it can be confirmed an original by the TTDS Team.

it's not a clone.It's in their site(and it's confirmed,check out some news and you'll see)

GBAExploader(see spelling) is a GBA slot-2 loader made by Rudolph.M3 asked him to drop support for their slot-2 card,but some guy developed a patch to support them(the X files in filetrip).Rudolph dropped supporting it cuz of that.

SRW Hook (I THINK) Homebrew Reset alternative to IRQ Hook.

 

[Rydian]

It's SWI hook.

Updated once again. What does it take to get something stickied? Is it requested or is it normally just nominated to be a sticky thread?

 

[Rydian]

Depends.

My concern is the title right now. "DS Jagon/Acronym/??? Dictionary" might be more newbie-friendly. Yes, I can't think of a third word for it. >>

DS Jagon/Acronym/Basics/Info Dictionary?

 

[Bluelaserman]

How would I get a "Thread name change?"

 

[Rydian]

Ask a mod to change it, and toss up the request to sticky it while you're at it.

DS Jagon/Acronym/Basics/Info Dictionary?

How about something like, "Frequently Used NDS Terminology: From Universal Standards to Proprietary Jargon." ... ... but maybe shorter somehow.

 

[Ryukouki]

DS Terms dictionary. TAH DAH!
