Well, couldn't Flashcart makers make DSi version cards?

Hope that Cyclo do that....

QUOTE(coolbho3000 @ Nov 1 2008, 02:05 PM) What about the ARDS?

I hope that sh** never works other time ¬¬


And... Think this, PSP have SD slot, PSP Dont use flashcard, PSP can run ISO's from the SD, So sonner or later one guy are going to made something who lead us play roms from a SD, DSi even has come to USA so there is a lot of hope

Well, if you can get a DSi just like that....Why not get it?!
I still think it looks really good with that matte finish......and fooling around with camera could be fun....
Downside is that you won't be able to get any of the DSware, it is region locked..

I thought it you can't get any US DSiWare on a JP DSi. Didn't think it blocked it all together.

If you think about it the DSi is only checking for some sort of code on the original carts that flashcarts don't have, I know state the obvious. Might even be as simple as a string search. It won't take long to break it. All the flashcarts have to do is emulate it.

who cares. by the time the DSi hits the US someone will have cracked it and we wont even need flash cards. we'll just run the "homebrew" off of the SD slot. i'll miss my R4. i had it so organized the way i liked it.

I expressed myself wrong.....It's true what you wrote!

I feel sorry for whoever imported this for 300 dollars as far as i'm concern i like my dslite, probably gonna take another year till people can actually play homebrew, on it, and dsi is not worth my money if you could talk via the camera with wifi connection, it's the same thing for psp3000 even dark alex can hack it to play homebrew, i'm just gonna a psp 2000.

I personally like my DSi, unfortunately i just dont have any games for it right now, but it is really cool.
the browser works charmingly and i dont think itll be a waste of money. however if your going to get one dont import one unless you speak japanese. cause any DSi exclusive catridges and downloadable content will only be in japanese. my japanese isnt that good but its getting better every day.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @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.
