Hey guys, I know I probably shouldn't be making this post, but I thought it would be the easiest.. here is my situation.
My younger cousins have fallen in love with my dstt and now want to buy it from me. So now I have a choice of either getting the dstt as a replacement or trying something else.
My initial reaction was to just get the dstt again since i already know how to use it. But it seems like there is much more potential in other brands. I was looking into the Acekard 2 and the Cyclo DS.
Here are my concerns though:
- Would the games and the save files transfer over easy? Is there any difference in formatting? Dstt = .nds and .sav (This is my main concern)
- Is it reliable? Is it likely that it will break down meaning that I would have to replace it?
- It seems like the skins are limited... Cyclo DS has a few and Acekard 2 has none. I currently have Jessica Alba on my DSTT... Do I have to say goodbye to her?
- The price seems fine... I'm looking to spend at most around $30
- How is the interface on both?
- Do either of them create a separate folder for saves? Could I still create a new folder labeled "Games" to prevent llag.
- Do they automatically alphabetize, or would you have to do the "Cut and paste into new folder trick"
- Whats the reliability of games working?
- Are there any hidden problems about the cards? Or things you don't like about the cards?
- Do they work with SDHC?
The main thing I would do is play the games. I can play mp3s on my laptop or car. I don't need to watch videos on there (screen is too small anyways). I only have the ipod mod and moonshell just to show off
I haven't run into many homebrews that I really like. (If you guys have any suggestions, please tell me) Like useful ones
I've looked into both and I really just don't know which one to get. So if you guys could give me opinions on what to get or give me opinions on which is better, that would be great.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone. This site is great.
I'll get you a beer or something if you are in my area
If you are under aged, I'll get you an ice cream cone.
