So I have a old dsi I just found in my bags of shit in an old storage shed, and I like to repurpose all my consoles lately, and I'm getting answers all over the place with Google. What do you recommend to use to hack the DSi? Preferably the cheapest and best option if that is possible. Thanks for any answers.

The gold standard is still the R4i Gold by r4ids.cn - which is discontinued, but replaced by https://nds-card.com/ProShow.asp?ProID=575 which works like the old one after you flip a small switch on the inside

If you want something more (allegedly better SNES/GBA/PC emulators, mainly) there are the DSTwo (plus) models, but they stopped making them a year ago too

on the other end of the spectrum, r4i-sdhc.com products (NOT r4isdhc.com) are also relatively popular

r4isdhc.com is just a rebrand of r4isdhc.com. The cards are exactly the same from an external hardware perspective.

    Again don't play on PC, nor would play that. And who knows, some those "issues" could just be your PC.
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    usually issues are a shitty PC

    I haven't had a crappy pc in years and when I did, I promptly got rid of it
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    KSP 2 did suck and the entire staff team got laid off
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    When I used to game on PC, I'd pirate PC games all the time, and some yes would crash often, maybe they were bad rips or something. I've had my SeriesX for over 2 years now and never have had a game crash yet, or any game breaking bugs. I have seen weird bugs like NPC walking thru floors or walls, but not often.
  • sombrerosonic @ sombrerosonic:
    Stupid question but any good PSP games anyone?
  • kijetesantakalu042 @ kijetesantakalu042:
    The jp cover for wings of fire is beautiful. Sucks that the translation won't make the story any better
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @BigOnYa PC games like to crash, satisfactory crashes every like 8 hours for me, there's some kinda leak with unreal engine objects so it hits the max object count and crashes

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and minecraft had a memory leak, over time the game slowed down more and more and i saw the ram usage slowly increasing, eventually it would crash if i left the game on all night
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    console games on the other hand have to be better optimized, theres less resources so those leaks get caught early and fixed, is my guess

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you see poorly optimized console games sometimes that crash constantly

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    because they were released unfinished

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but the issues probably exist on the pc versions of those games too, they just don't get noticed because there are more resources available
     +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    since the pc and console versions are the same code base

  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    There is also the issue of people learning programming on languages with garbage collectors - so when faced with C/C++ they just allocate memory and do not even realise they have to free the heap as well...

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @lwiz, The issues with noobies who are trying to learn any programming language or modding a console, is that they say "Any x experts out here?". If they at least asked the damn question, then it wouldn't be riddled with confusing nonsense. I cannot fathom how nobody even has the ability to think when following instructions.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There are also tutorials and books that you can read which gives you a better understanding on the subject, even if you don't get it the first time, it does help to boost you up the learning curve. :P
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I've just spent hours making new flashcart labels, one that is for a DS Fire Card. I have some good experience when it comes to art design. 7+ years learning Photoshop, now onto GIMP, it's a lot easier to facilitate.
