Hey guys, so back in the day i had mario kart ds on my flashcard and i remeber playing the luigi's mansion map, but the controls were always switched. I really liked that actually, so when i got mario kart again the first thing i played was luigi's mansion but the controls were normal for some reason. It can't be region difference (and i mean, why would it be?) Because i got my save file from my flashcard and it worked so yeah.
I can't seem to find anything about the feature online so i thought I'd ask it here!

I know of one way of getting the controls mirrored, and if you played Mario Kart off a flashcard, maybe the ROM or the save file were patched to include this?

As in, the controls were swapped in your save file?
no, the controls were mirrored (forgot the word when writing the post lol) when i had the game on my flashcard. i copied both the rom and the .sav to my sd when jailbreaking my dsi but somehow the bug is gone
Post automatically merged:

I think one of the missions in Mission Mode had you win a race on Luigi's Mansion with switched controls. Maybe that's what you were remembering?
wait that might be it! hold on, i'm gonna check
*edited*
yeah that was it, tysm!

    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • T @ TheSusKing:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • T @ TheSusKing:
    no, i mean if i could store the app on the usb so it doesnt take up my storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
