Hi, I picked up a 2DS last week and am looking to get a cart. I'm going to use it mainly for DS games and am not really concerned about emulation. However I might get something that supports 3DS games. I see a lot of options out there and was wondering if you guys could give me a recommendation. Thanks!

Even if you were to get a cart for 3ds games anyways, they can be tricky to deal with. For example, s**3ds has several different versions that can only support certain games (due to Nintendo changing security measures in retail games throughout the system's lifespan). There are other carts, but since you can play any 3ds title as a digital copy with little to no risk, I highly recommend just buying a ds flashcart (mentioned above) and getting cfw via the recommended guide.

3ds flashcarts are basically useless now a days, it doesnt give you the ease of yse and compatibilty as the cfw can do. It can also easily ban you because flashcarts tends to use the same cart id.

If you only want to play ds games, choose the cheap Ace3ds plus. If you also want to play ds and 3ds games and don't care about the price, Stargate 3ds can support them.

No. Just... No.
Why would you get a $90 flashcart when you can CFW your 3DS and pick a $20 flahscarf (or less)?

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
