Supercard DSTWO announced

[shakirmoledina]

this is gonna smoke all carts esp since the all time favorite question has been answered dually
"can i play gba games on my ds cart?... Yes *GASP*"

they have done absolutely everything tht the community would want with the cart
they just have to release constant updates to combat Anti-Piracy

though

 

[Sanderino]

Kool, i just want to have it because the gba emulator feature

 

[ZenZero]

Personally, i have always used Supercard products, and i=have never had ANY problem with the speed of the GUI, it seems to me that some members are a little bitimpatient

.

but yeh, ill definately get this, and will look forward to seing some images/videos

 

[Splych]

Sounds nice. I am hoping they changed the save system... And also am hoping that it is faster then the old GUI.

It's awesome now since they have the GBA support. This basically eats the iPlayer up... Now all I need to know is if it can play .avi files then this will be awesome.

 

[armageddan]

awesome. i have the ez-flash combo but i think i may buy this in case i get a dsi. gotta love that gba support.

EDIT: and i agree with boxshot on this one, they should relocate the sd input to the side instead of the top.

 

[Mr.Mysterio]

Cool!
Now I dont have to buy an iPlayer.Hope this can play .avi videos.
Any news on the pricing?

 

[754boy]

The Cart will probably have its own menu of its own. This news also sucks for the people who have the Supercard DSone because I don't think they will update it now.

Lol thats not true at all. They are still updating the oldest SC CF and SD carts so we have nothing to worry about

Oy yeah, I will be purchasing this

 

[DarkBowser]

When is the realese of the card?

 

[Sanderino]

Oh yeah, and has it, I don't know what's it called 4 GB memory card support

 

[ZPE]

Oh yeah, and has it, I don't know what's it called 4 GB memory card support

SDHC?

 

[Notyalc]

Hope it can go more than 4gb. I only got 8gb & am planning on getting 16gb soon...

 

[morcar]

I think the big question is how good is the SNES emulator on the card i mean will it run the super fx games at full speed and what about mode 7 how good does it do that ?

 

[Pyrofyr]

As an owner of the SCDS1, I definitely want this. Can't wait for it to come out.

 

[FluffyLunamoth]

I not buy this for a while, other flashcarts may add extra RAM too. If I do get it ill hold onto my acekard 2i aswell though, because of all the updates. I heard supercard dont get that many updates.

I could be wrong, but it'll probably take much longer for them to do it. Remember, the first GBA Emulator for the DS was made for the DSiPlayer, which was made by the Supercard team. The other teams can't just copy/rip-off that hardware, or they would've done it by now. And because Supercard made the DSiPlayer, they already have the Emulator, though hopefully they'll freaking finetune it, they don't have to make a new GBA emulator. Everyone else would.

P.S. To the person who said people need to stop relying on Team Cyclo, very good. Some people learn. Cyclo is now both out of date, AND obsolete. It does nothing that other cards can't do.

 

[Sarvesh50]

i was going to buy assinsin creed 2 for ps3 but with this fuck that

 

[geokilla]

Wow. So if it's like the iPlayer, does this mean I can play RMVB files and stuff on it without converting?

 

[BoxShot]

Probably it could but there isn't much confirmation on other stuff it could do with the cpu.

 

[morcar]

Well i know it costs a lot more but for emulation in your hand i will wait for the Pandora as its gone into production now so not too long to go

I think the big question is how good is the SNES emulator on the card i mean will it run the super fx games at full speed and what about mode 7 how good does it do that ?

Mode7 was a feature in a lot of SNES games, most in fact. It didn't require a special chip to run. It was basically just the ability to create a fake flat 3D effect via rotating and scaling. SnemulDS already played a fair share of games with mode7 correctly and fairly well. Fzero comes to mind, along with some RPG's with a mode7 map.

What i'm looking forward to are less glitches, better compatibility, and better speed. And of course, if possibly, special chip support. Here's a list of games using special chips that didn't work in snemulDS-

http://wiki.pocketheaven.com/SNES_games_with_special_chips

These games may or may not work at all. It's fair to assume they'll TRY to get them to work though. But speeds might not be that great. Non-special chip games should now run just fine though.

As for price, don't quote that it will be expensive or cheap. We don't know how much it will be yet. Could be $20, could be $40, could be $50 (doubt it will be as much as $50). I'm personally thinking somewhere around $35. That was the iplayer price on dealextreme.

Can someone post a link to a place that tells all the information one could want to know about this device in one article? This is something completely new to me that I am not familiar with but it does sound interesting. One other thing, can someone comment if this will be the best one to get or is there another type of card like this that is superior?
