Wow, so much bull shit in one post.
You are talking about people making extreme claims and then do it yourself.
As far as I know nobody knows anything about the specifications of the DSTWO+, if that is actually it's name since this name was made up by some hoaxer.
And you're already talking about upgraded CPUs heck even PSX and N64 emulation, which is totally ridiculous to even think of at this point.
And then the "safe to assume it will have a switch" part? Where do you come up with this stuff?
I made absolutely zero claims, learn to read. The 'safe to assume it will have a switch' comes from my understanding of how the 3DS works... It will either have a hard switch or some fancy new software method to boot between being a 3DS game, in 3DS mode or a DS game in DS mode... This is the nature of the 3DS when loading a game from the cartridge slot... If it is launched in 3DS mode, and you want to play a DS game... You will either have to switch the console to DS mode or emulate a DS, and that isn't very practical... With my limited knowledge of the registry and how the 3DS works... You will not be able to switch from DS mode and 3DS mode without going into the menu screen. If there is no hard switch on a this device that can supposedly play both... How would it know which you were trying to achieve?
I simply stated what I would do if I was involved in the design process (I am clearly not involved, if I was I wouldn't be posting here.), the only reason I talked about PSX or N64 emulation because in my opinion, it is the next logical step for developers to stride for... Actually PSX emulation has happened on a DSTWO already, just not at appreciable speeds...
The only reason I mentioned about upgrading a CPU for the DSTWO+, because it seems like an obvious choice as CPUs have come a long way since the original DSTWO was produced... But also to point out how the development team could come to the conclusion that DS-MODE homebrew is plenty if the DSTWO's CPU is carrying most of the weight anyways... Say using an identical CPU as a Dingoo and releasing a Dingux port, then they could justify going in more of a SKY3DS setup rather than the Gateway setup for 3DS rom compatibility... Such a final product would meet the things that have been advertised by some vendors about the DSTWO+ even though some have claimed that it is the impossible lies of scammers... Rather than assume such, I reasoned out a way that such claims could actually be realized.
No where did I say any of it was reality... Actually read my post that you quoted... I was simply openly exploring options from my perspective, as so many before have done on this issue... The only difference was I did not then tout any of my speculations as fact, but rather and quite plainly state them as nothing more than speculation that they are.
Meanwhile, you still get people posting things like this, note how they are stating something that is clearly unknown as fact...
Only works on 4.5 for 3ds games which kinda make it a waste of time. They should stop making flashcarts until they figured out how to make it work on the latest firmware or downgrade it.
Now go read the language and terminology used in my post, I was very clearly and blatantly speculating....
Conclusion: If I was supercard, which I am not, I would simply combine a DSTWO (maybe with upgraded CPU) and a clone of SKY3DS into a single chip, with a switch that toggles between the two modes... This is also the only way I see it being realistic that the extreme claims being made by some website would be possible...
