Gaming Nintendo DS Jargon Dictionary

[bialy_gibson]

In Types of Flashcarts section I would add N-Card & Clones (DSLinker etc.).

EDIT. Alphabetically sorted section Types of Fake/Clone Flashcarts would look much better.

This is really helpful. I learned a lot more things today about flash carts and anything to do with NDS. Thanks so much

 

[Bluelaserman]

Fake Flashcarts are in Alphabetical order. I do not wish too add Old Flashcarts as previous other members have said that it would be irrelevant to the average gamer as they are no longer supported or easy to come by. I've also added "DS" with my own little definition

To craplame, I'm glad it has helped you, after all, that's the purpose of this "dictionary".

 

[lolzed]

Not to be kj but i think your definition is also irrelevant,as the true meaning of DS is really one of those two(whichever side you are on)

You might also wanna alphabetize the terms.

Anything that comes from a dodgy alley shop in China is a clone

No offence to the Chinese.

Which ones should I alphabetically order? Some of them are in order of relevance/most heard of.

 

[Bluelaserman]

Which mod should I ask? Don't want to ask any random one and then realise its not their field of knowledge/care.

I do believe that we have spent far too much time discussing the definition of .cc, I mean, seriously...?

Yeah, I kinda drove that one into the ground. Lol.

What is lacking from this dictionary?

Perhaps the ambiguity of the DS moniker would make a nice addition. Although I've never heard of the possible "dual sex" definition of DS that you have contributed, it should possibly be noted that devs have made similar stabs at the system's name with similar "puns" in mind; i.e.

Resident Evil DS (Deadly Silence)
Korg DS-10 & Korg DS-10+ (a play on the Korg MS-10)
Godzilla Unleashed DS (Double Smash)
Ninja Gaiden DS (Dragon Sword)
Mage Knight DS (Destiny's Soldier)
...etc.

There's probably similar such puns in the DS Homebrew.

Technically, a dictionary should be mostly in alphabetical, so it's prob best to file each term alphabetically under the categories.

in the region code list you said that holland is H... but on internet sites it's always D for Dutch

"Dutch" is a language not a region. I've also seen NL used for Netherlands, but H seems to be the preferred one letter region code.
