You are aware that "app" works with a flashcard also, right? I use it with my AceKard 2i and R4 all the time.
Of course, but if you already have a flashcard why work harder vs smarter? Not to negate the awesomeness of the bootstrap app, it works well and the devs have been working really hard on it for a while. That doesn't change the fact that a flashcard does everything that app does better, with 100% compatibility and more features to boot like cheats and RTS. Between CIA forwarders and a cheap $15 card, there is no reason to use that app right now outside of development or desperation assuming your aim is DS gaming and not DS Homebrews or something that mght require TWLoader.

There is TWL Loader you can use, but personally I'd use a DS Flashcart.
with the Flashcart Launchers. I use the original R4 and that works fine. I think you can find one for dirt cheap anyways ^^

yea a flash cart is much better
Expect when I made this post TWLoader ran most games painfully slow and there was virtually no reason to use it for any game above 32MB, but that's not the case anymore. The latest nds-bootloader with TWiLight Menu++ is a far different story and game compatibility/speed is improving at a rapid rate. I actually would heavily suggest people give TWiLight Menu++ a chance and if they aren't satisfied, then buy a flashcart, or just use both. Times have changed and are continuing to change.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
