The DS and DS Lite don't check date of certificates as far as I am aware. The DSi probably does but only on DSi games due to compatibility issues. And most likely does so for the Internet browser it uses.

When it comes to the GTS Heart Gold and Soul Silver seem to have the less problems with it, same for Mistery Gift. I have still been unable to trade even using a real DS Lite with the real games. And yes Mario Kart keeps disconnecting on me.

If anyone has been able to connect using an emulator, please tell.

Edit: I was able to use the GTS with the real games. It worked better with Heart Gold and Soul Silver.

So far I had the best results using a DS Lite and a cart with the game (it doesn't matter if it is a pirate one, as long as is not a Flashcart. Same goes for Pokemon).

And to the guy who is cheating? Please stop, is quite evident you are doing so. Your character looks like a mess after the first race.

Edit: Pokemon Pearl, be it in a flashcart or the real game, gets stuck forever frozen in Mystery Gift and can't use the GTS. Pokemon Diamond and Platinum work fine. Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver work and forget about any of the Pokemon Black and White Games. And let's not even start with Black and White 2. Mario Kart has worked best for me on the DS Lite for some reason. My old DS firmware is v4 and the DS Lite is v5, maybe is that? Who knows.

Edit2: Pokemon Black in Spanish can enter the GTS but I can't deposit or trade without getting errror messages. Anyone had any luck with the DSI versions of Black and White?

I just successfully connected to "WFC" in Heartgold but after receiving Mystery Gift and going back to the menu the game freezes showing white screens only, despite this when I launch it again, the guy is still standing in Pokemart and gives me the gift, so it's working. I'm using R4iSDHC dual core.

Still getting the same error. I can't even save the settings. I'm trying to use online with Metroid Prime Hunters.

I get that when inputting the wrong password settings. You're using a WEP/unsecured/hotspot connection, right?

Probably. Do I need to login into my Router or something? Also when trying to input the DNS I went to manual setup.

  • 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.

    @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".

    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
