I ordered yet another M3 Simply from Gameyeeeah.
Of course I went ahead and ordered this in the middle of feb, and it didn't arrive until today. Apparently my money wasn't cleared until about a week later and by then they were out of stock. I had to wait until the 5th of March for them to ship from their new stock. It arrived today, the 16th. It looks like they've stopped doing replacement cartridge shells, because this second package is missing one. They've also replaced the blister pack for just a common cardboard box with plastic clear inserts. Everything is the same for the most part, except the micro SD card reader is black. And smaller. I guess this is a good thing but I don't really care. I was able to just stick the SD card in, along with all it's current information, and it worked straight away. It came with the same strap and blue case as the original, so it seems like they've jut improved the USB SD reader and managed to check out on doing free replacement shells, which kinda sucks. Aside from that, nothing to update. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I just received my M3 Simply in the mail today, and so far it's great. I'm a little dissapointed with the lack of SNES support, but the video and NDS emulation is enough to warrant its purchase.
Has anyone got Opera to work on their DS (emulated)? I've hear some sources say it is impossible, while others have stated it can be done. Does anyone have the Rom? I couldn't find it anywhere. How ya doing, buddy?

Lame ass. I ordered my M3 Simply a few weeks ago and they're still backordered.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
SnemulDS - still being supported and in development, this is the emulator to look into. Version 0.4 works awesome and I was able to beat Super Metroid on it. Supports save states and SRAM saves, and has graphic layer options. Doesn't support large romsizes yet so some rom hacks won't work. Should work fine on Simply. http://www.pocketheaven.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=5428 - message board post with link to latest version, 0.4 final You can also look into SnezziDS and SNESDS. SnezziDS actually ran a Super Metroid rom hack that SnemulDS wouldn't, but it's no longer being supported. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
There's nowhere I can't reach. Mario Kart DS: 498293-921939____ Star Fox Command: 155-576-696-451____ Metroid Prime Hunters: 4854-1233-4943____ Final Fantasy III: 506891214495____ Xfire: freuser____ Steam: Free.User____ |
And like I said, it's version ZERO POINT 4, meaning IT'S STILL IN DEVELOPMENT. And also like I said, SnezziDS currently supports larger rom sizes (4mb+) (but only for slot-2, nyah). Learn to appreciate what others have put time and effort into instead of complaining about everything. How ya doing, buddy?

The majority of the games in that list were compatible, but that is only a very small slice of the entire Snes library. I wanted to play games such as Seiken Densetsu III, Illusion of Gaia, and Kirby's Dreamland 3, but that is not possible at this stage. As such, I am disappointed, and rightly so. I don't understand where you picked up that I was rapping on the people behind the emulation projects. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Seriously, I've said it before. If you want emulated, portable SNES games, buy a gamepark or PSP. Most amazing jew boots |
Except a "lack of support" would mean that there are no emulators, period. Clearly that is not the case. You give DS SNES emulation far too little credit.

Anyway I'm going on a train trip to Victoria today (4 hours there, 4 hours back), so the M3 couldn't have arrived at a more opportune moment. Time to put it to the test.

I reiterate, you both are giving the DS emulation scene too little credit. The DS doesn't come close to the processing power of the PSP so holding it to the PSP's standards is a little unfair.
My issue with you saying "lack of support" is that there really is quite adequate support. What, do you want there to be 10 or 20 different SNES emulators out there that all basically do the same thing? There's only a handful because that is all that is necessary. SNEmulDS is basically a collaborative effort as the CPU and sound emulation were contributed by other coders, making it the most ambitious and promising emulator for the DS right now. My concern is that your negativity towards it will turn off other people in this thread from trying it out. Again, the wiki that Free.User posted only shows what games users have actually tested and submitted themselves. It is not a complete list of all games that are supported. And right now most of the games tested for v0.4 Final actually do work. That being said, there are several SNES games that used special chips in the cartridges that will probably never be able to be properly emulated. You can see a list of these games here. Additional Spam: By the way Elixir, I'm not familiar with the PSP homebrew scene. Exactly how good is SNES emulation on the PSP? As far as speed, compatibility, large rom size support, graphics layers support, special chip support, etc.a What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Reason: This member got a little too post happy.

There's a few here and there that don't work, but the PSP emulation scene is booming. There's at least a new app or upgrade every week on qj.net. This is why I'm not interested in emulation on the DS, since the PSP covers almost all of it. Most amazing jew boots |
Will wonders never cease. I was taking a look at Game Park and it's pretty awesome...like an all-in-one hand held retro-console, MP3 player, MP4 player, PDF reader, etc.
Anyway, as for NDS SNES Emulation, a good summary is consisting of both sides: "NDS SNES Emulation is still in the development phases. While promising, users should be aware that only a handful of games work, and only a handful of those games work perfectly. Users are encouraged to try it out (and report results), but should keep an open mind that it is still a work-in-progress (as support comes from a variety of people), and that future releases will result in more games working at optimized settings." Everyone happy? There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Updated with different prices and a few tweaks here and there. I've also backed up this so if the site decides to take another fall, we won't be completely ruined.
I've also been checking out the No$GBA emulator for DS. It runs surprisingly well (as in, games actually run) but whenever there's action on the screen it ends up dropping to somewhere between 3 and 9 fps. Unless you have a really high end PC, don't bother. Most amazing jew boots

More than a month since I ordered my M3 Simply. I hope they come back in stock. Some time. Ever.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Cool deal Elixer. It may be a nice way to finally try out games before I buy them (even if it is slow at this point, but hey, I guess that's why it's good to BUY the games you like, eh?).

It seems that complaining did the trick. The M3 Simply is listed at a 3-day in stock. Wewt.

There's a patched version of the browser rom all over the internet. http://www.nintendo-ds-roms.com/ They seem to have everything, but you'll need to get emule. FELIPE NO I <3 Cheryl.

Okay, I'm loading my M3 Simply with tons of crap. Browser and VoiP software aren't working. Anyone with suggestions and/or links are welcome to give 'em. Also, I've yet to go into the lands of emulation outside NDS roms. This is where you guys come in as well. <3
The M3 is awesome! EDIT: The above link is only for roms though...and eMule is bleh. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

- Added Table of Contents
- Added keywords - Cleared up some broken links, relocated flashme.nds - Fixed some typos. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I also joined the clan of M3 Simply owners recently.
The whole scene of DS homebrew felt complicated, and when I read up on the simply I felt "This is the card for me". Extremely easy to install, handle and use. Works like a charm. Every time. One card - 1,000 hours of fun Also, I tried out the SNES emulator SNEmulDS. Tried out some Chrono Trigger, some text was weird, the menu is wacked and the sound goes hozo sometimes. I read however that the developer will fix sound and graphics for the most popular Square and Enix games due SNEmulDS 0.5b. Can't wait. There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm terribly disappointed in the homebrew department of the DS. So far, I've tested quite a few of the more popular applications and nothing is all that impressive.
ScummVM has all sorts of display and sound problems and can't run the newer games. DSOrganize is pretty handy but looks like crap. Moonshell seems quite powerful at first glance but is a pain to use (who needs drag & drop windows on such a small screen?) and converting videos so you can watch them stutter in super crappy quality on the DS doesn't seem right. I spent a couple of hours with Tower Defense, but it's still pretty buggy and gets boring fast. Emulation isn't nearly fast enough even for NES at times. I don't understand how anyone can expect to play SNES or Genesis games at decent speed on the DS anytime soon. I now use my R4 for game backups and nothing else. Homebrew on the DS is in its infancy. If you're into these kinds of things, you absolutely need to get a PSP. That's where the Homebrew scene is really at right now. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Rock, I've also got an R4 and tried using BeUp Messenger and Okiwi Internet to work, but for some reason they don't connect to the internet. I've got that DLDI patching thing but I haven't the foggiest idea of what to do. Any ideas?
And yeh, homebrew ain't that great on many Slot-1 cards yet but one nifty thing about the R4 is the latest firmware update (1.08): Action REEEPLAY (actioning replaying the crap outta POKEMON!!! w00t l33tZ etc etc.) I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
