.em. Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Now that the 3DS is out, I thought it would be nice to try out some homebrew on the DS while I wait to get the next handheld. I've looked around for some info on this, but am still feeling a bit lost. I want to make sure that I get something that works, and isn't too expensive either. One of my friends recommended the Acekard 2i, though I'm not sure where to find a trustworthy seller. So any info or links or whatever that you guys can share would be very helpful. and in case it helps any, I have a DS lite and live in the USA.

Mercurial Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) You just need an SD card and a slot 1 adapter. Edited April 1, 2011 by Hakidia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beats me, I'm still trying to get my R4 take a bigger mini SD card than 2GB. (DS Lite homebrew) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Besides pirating, DS homebrew kind of blows. Especially compared to PSP homebrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in regards to the pirating on DS, half the games barely work. Dragon quest 6 just loops the first scene for me over and over. Ditto for DQ9 New Super Mario Bros. And hey, is this Vincent Grey from Kotaku? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 And in regards to the pirating on DS, half the games barely work. lolwut First off, it's nowhere near half the games, it's only major titles where they even bother to implement anything to try and make it not work for pirates. Secondly, the pirate scene keeps up on cracking the DRM/whatever you call this and updates the firmware of the various flash carts. I have an R4, I don't run the old R4 firmware anymore, I run Wood's firmware so I can play any game without patching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easier to just buy the game and play legitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Yeah, googling is hard as fuck bro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagathorian Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Yeah, googling is hard as fuck bro. No need to be an asshole. Again, I don't want to bother with patches and bad downloads ect. easier just to buy the freaking game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 FDS is a dick like that. I think hes the resident dick of the group. I wouldnt let it bother you. And yes, its me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I don't want to bother with patches and bad downloads ect. easier just to buy the freaking game. I'm pointing out downloading is still easier. I specifically stated that you don't need to deal with patches and I have no idea what you even mean by bad downloads considering that there are a ton of dedicated sites. All you do is easily install a firmware update. Drag and drop. No going to a store. No buying online. Easy as pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the only game I found fun and easy enough to platinum. Im one trophy away from Platinuming(is that even a word?) FF13 and Uncharted 1, but its not going to happen.
