A couple of years ago I got a Game n Watch and wanted to play roms on it, so I googled that and found a thread on GBAtemp, which informed me that it was impossible. So I looked through the threads and found out about emulators for the DS and just stalked the site for a few years till the M3 Real was released. Then stalked to site more for the updates.
One faithful day in September of 09, 3 games were dumped and guest weren't allowed on the site. So I joined to complain about the lack of AP patch.

Used Google to find the best flashcart. Results brought up an Acekard. Knowing little of what the hell that meant, an Acekard forum popped up on a weird site named GBATemp in the search results. AKAIO was dominating at the time so an Acekard 2.1 (2i didn't exist yet) look pretty good. I lurked around & read the AKAIO wiki. Soon new people started to show up who needed info and were too lazy to read the Wiki. I gave the answers provided by the Wiki and went from there.

Joined looking for Wii help.
And to this day I never solved my problem.


But I already had a DS and EDGE.

I then came back looking to find a good flashcart.
I chose the AK2i.

And to this day I now own many flash kits.

I visit the site daily.

Yeah, that's my story.

    @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."

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    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.

  • 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
    +1
  • 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

  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
