Hacking to buy a g6?

[dfyb]

G6 lite = M3 without a card, smaller, fits in DS lite, but limited to 512megabytes, with a bit less support.

"less support"?

as in, less compatibility or less community/company future development, which could equate to less compatibility?

Less documentation and hardware features. The natural compatibility of the cart is near perfect, or should be, so worrying about weather or not people are working hard on compatibility isn't a big issue. The software, however, doesn't have full functionality yet(Only internal names for GBA games, only DOS names for DS games and when looking through cart directories... And it doesn't look like it's updating soon. Some icons are missing for certain GBA games, and it displays the G6 icon instead. You can't have custom icons, either.), and it looks like it's being ignored for the most part.

It runs everything perfectly, and likely will for a long time with no issues, but it's not really "looked after", so to speak.

ummm ... there's a beta 4.0 update released, and the final should be out for the G6Lite release.

I'm gonna buy one if they come in Navy colored.

You're in luck, as that's one of the colours they've announced.

Just a quick question:

Besides the higher price and the GBA ability, is there any reason why I wouldnt want a G6 lite over a G6 lite professional?

GBA compatibility

Yea. Sorry, besides that I mean.
