Since the last DLC for this game was released in 2010 (official info in us.playstation.com), I was looking for a way to include the lost characters (Gig, Dark Eclair and Miable) and maybe the NPCs (Toro & Kuro)
I found something quite disconcerting
1.) all decrypted DLCs are the same (Binary Comparison)
2.) if I rename the DLC with another name (DL_US_00 - DL_US_06) activate the corresponding DLC char, out of range (07->) are not detected....
3.) if I put another DLC (such as the jap dlc) with US name in range 00-06 the game dies, but with another number (07->) are not detected.
4.) unpacking DLC file with NISDecmp NISUnpack and La Pucelle Toolpack( by DragonRagnarok) I found the 3 missions (in DUNGEONS.DAT ) between the official releases (Another Princess - The Strongest Guy - Antiphona) but in talk.dat nothing related
Conclusions:
-NISA never planed to release them (I read in some forums about people who bought this game only for this characters, so NISA F@·½~ them , sorry)
-In somewhere in the game, is the code looking for DLC in range 0-6
-In somewhere in the DLC, is the logic to select the right character for the right slot (since in game code have no references to DLC missions)

I found anything else, I will update this thread

have a nice day

    @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.

    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.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    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
    for people with beefy hands.

    @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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    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

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    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:

    @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
