nds-bootstrap loader: Run commercial NDS backups from an SD Card

nds-bootstrap:

Thanks to the work of ahezard, Gericom, Apache, Robz8, _catcatcat, and shutterbug2000 and other contributors, we can now load NDS games from the SD card, without any flashcard/SLOT-1 card.

Don't expect high compatibility, but do expect many, many updates.

How exactly do you load this? I've installed Twilight Menu and Unlaunch on my DSi. It's supposed to be included with Twilight Menu but doesn't display in the menu. Trying to launch it directly from Unlaunch gives me either a power off or white screen depending on which file I select.

Put your Pokémon white game ROM in the NDS folder in your SD card.

Once Twilight Menu loads, navigate to that folder. roms/nds in this case

you should see the Pokémon white icon. Click A button to load it or Y to go to settings to change it to run in DSi mode

Bug fixes​

  • Fixed Power Pro Kun Pocket 12 not booting in DSi mode without a donor ROM.
    • In other words, the bug where Power Pro Kun Pocket 12 would only boot in DSi mode for DSiWarehax users has been fixed, so users who don't use DSiWarehax and instead uses Unlaunch or a 3DS console are now able to play it in DSi mode.
  • Reverted from the ASM memcpy code back to tonccpy, in order to fix bugs where parts of the graphics would not be restored when exiting the in-game menu, as well as the Anno games not properly displaying graphics.
  • Other minor fixes.
