i just got my combo and i've ran across a problem. the usb adapter's working just because the drive shows up in "My Computer", however i think my g6 may be faulty. the LED on the usb connector has only lit up once during the 25+ times i've tried connecting it to my computer. same thing happens when i put the g6 in the dslite nothing comes up after the passkey boot up screen. anyone know what's wrong with it? am i doing something wrong?
Hardware problem with g6 + passcard

You might try opening the G6 case and making sure the circuit board is positioned correctly. Someone said that fixed the problem for them.

I have had my G6 for a while and I am happy with it;s compatibility but I am not happy with it's build quality. Mine has the same issues with the LED all the time and whats wrong in my case is the contact pads on the edge connector are sub par and they are already corroding and two of them are rubbing off.
Giving them a good cleaning and fiddling around with how I insert it into the USB connector or the DS usually works. It's the good old "reliable" NES all over again

@SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that

@Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.+1 -

I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
