My best friend gave me an M3 Simply in 2007. Up until that point I never knew flashcarts existed for the DS.

My search for info on the M3 Simply back then took me to the M3 Adapter forums here. I lurked here for about a year, upgraded to an M3 Real/GBA Expansion Pack combo, and then I joined in February 2008. I was still a lurker, and I never posted until M3 Sakura emerged and it was in need of translating. This was my first post.

Hmmm, come to think of it, I never did post in the Introductions forum

Well.....

I initially stumbled upon this place after hearing about it from a certain other site that many people know well and frequent themselves for one reason or another (though I'm sure it's mostly the content available). I lurked off and on for about a year from Fall '09 to new year 2011. I then decided to join.

Nice and simple.

Every cool site I've ever been a member of, I don't remember how I got there.

MapleStory, GBAtemp, FinalStory, idk how I ended up at any of those places.

I was looking for cheats for some game, and came across Curley5959's "A Helper with 'Cheat Code Editor'" thread. I tried to understand and make my own cheats, but I failed terribly. >: Then after a while I joined this site cos I found it interesting.

I just got my DS Lite and my R4, I was a total noob. I googled for a long time then I found GBATemp even before there was filetrip. I lurked for a long time before I even thought about joining.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    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
  • 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:

  • 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
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
