Don't own any DS, but might soon. Anyway, do you think the new DSi will be able to play GBA games using this homebrew stuff or no? If not, then I would get the DS Lite for sure.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well don't they sell these under non-japanese websites correct?

Additional Spam:
I wish folks would read the last few pages of a topic they seem to be interested in. It might help them a bit what with the information they might contain. =/

That said the cyclo is the better of those choices. It'll even do GBC and Master System emulation. In order to play GBA games you will require a slot 2 device.

My recommendation to you is a Cyclo DS Evolution and an EZ 3 in 1 slot 2 card (ezflash V).

Here, I'll even give you my recommended place for buying these things:

Cyclo: CycloDS Evolution, CycloDS, Cyclo DS Evo

ezflash V (assuming you have a ds lite): EZ Flash Expansion 3 in 1


Further advice should you decide to purchase these: Don't use the piece of shit USB microSD transfer device that comes with the Cyclo. I've bought four Cyclos and that piece of crap USB device fucks up the microSD card just about every time. Use the USB transfer device that comes with your microSD card instead. I've had no problems with the 8 GB microHCSD cards they offer you with your purchase. It's worth it.
Ok If I go this option. One question I have is, how much space is the 2gb micro sd card? Probably already mentioned somewhere in this thread, but what is the average and/or maximum size of a DS game in MB? I am just wondering how many games a 2gb can hold.
And is this the crap USB device you mention on the bottom? http://gbatemp.net/reviews/cyclods/PICT3999.JPG

So you are saying I have to buy an additional memory card to get some other USB transfer device? I bought a flash memory card for my GPS before, and it didnt come with no transfer device (i just used the usb cable that came with the device). I am not following you exactly. sorry

There's nowhere I can't reach.

But it doesnt even say anything about the usb adapter with sd card here. CycloDS Evolution, CycloDS, Cyclo DS Evo

Does it come with the Kingston 2gb?

If not this one 4 gb will be fine right. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820134794

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I bought the 4gb kingston. So that is 2+4 = 6. Should be more then enough space. I mean it doesn't seem hard to switch cards anyway.

Anyways I think I am going to go with the Crimson Red Dslite.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I think he said the EZ Flash Expansion 3 in 1

How is the 3 in 1 ez expansion compatible with the Opera web browser by the way? Doesnt the browser have to go in this slot. Or is the web browser already part of the EZ flash expansion?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well I ordered EZ 3 in 1 plus and I have just been reading some compatibility issues with the existing Cyclo firmware. Something with PSRAM and NOR, which I don't know anything about. So hopefully I can still play GBA games and keep my saves.

Doesn't one of these (PSRAM or NOR) not keep your save after powering off? What is the point of that anyway, cause who doesn't want to save heh. I assume you can have multiple saves from multiple games with one of the rams?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I said PLUS. Its a little different supposedly.

Additional Spam:
And so if I want to play two GBA games at a time. I have to backup the original save, as the second game save will write over the save from the first game?

I'm sure I will figure everything out when I get my hands on it anyway =p

FELIPE NO
