I'm not absolutely positive on all the details but I've been wondering. When I bring up the idea of loading a ds game into nand and loading it like a dsi game the usual issue brought up is that the nand space available is too small to even fit one ds game much less a few. I know there is such thing as loading a virtual nand and being as it loads off of the sd card the physical storage restriction would be lifted right? Or, is there a data limit on a code level that prevents this v-nand from exceeding the size of the original nand chip? I feel like I'm missing something here as I'm sure someone else has likely already thought of this and has been shot down.

    I think I've burned myself out playing games. I've been playing 8-12 hours everyday on SeriesX for the last couple months since cutting my work hours down. Almost don't even feel like playing today.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Almost all devices can play GBC nowdays. Even cheap handheld Chinese knockoffs. I'm sure there is a handheld out there already close to your plans.
