I woudn't mind just improved DS compatibility, and quick load for GBA roms.  Holding the 4 face buttons to boot isn't really much of a hassle.

Quote from: "Critical_Impact"To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

Today?

:lol:  today? no.. hehe.. lunar calendar.  the lunar calendar starts usually between end of january and middle of february (it shifts, as it is based on the moon, and our months are no longer based on the moon..)  so like the other post said, end of january is probably the beginning of Chinese New Year... which is also part of the 'spring festival'..

1) no your wrong, 1 button is easier to press than 4 buttons ..please do not argue this point as your statement in the first place almost made me want to commit suicide.

2) Take your supercard out if you want to play your bought games, you will get longer battery time.


1) You are wrong, actually. Due to the DS button placement, to press ABXY is way easier than pressing Select.

2) Does power even go through the SC while in regular DS mode? There is no change in battery life time that I noticed when playing normal games.

How is pushing 1 button instead of 4 at the same time harder? I mean seriously the buttons are like cm's away from each other

What would be really nice would be for the firmware to look in the saved preferences and run gba games on the screen you select in the bios. Can't be that hard, surely given what they've achieved so far.

Will the new patch help with gba rom slowdown? I want to get a supercard but its kinda trademarked as having "gba slowdown".
