I think this would also encourage a homebrew GBA emu!

I doubt that seriously. Anyway, how much does this thing cost?

Am I missing the point here?  Why would we need a homebrew GBA emulator?  My DS plays all my GBA games just fine.

As to whether it's the "wave of the future," that remains to be seen.  Will Nintendo's next handheld device use DS type carts?  Who knows.  Right now with my G6 Lite, I can play all my GBA AND NDS games pretty easily.  Heck, even the Supercard Mini-SD could do DS games without sticking out.

Nice. I'm going to be watching for this device.

I'm surprised they can fit everything, including microSD, in that small size.  I've been skeptical that this was even possible.

He mentioned a GBA emu because this cart doest support GBA roms. I'm gonna need to see reviews of this before  I proclaim this THE cart to have  :?

Ahhh looks nice esp if the newer games start using RAM expansions

but most homebrews esp those with fat/gbfs(which only works via the 0x80000 register ie the gba slot) wont work

[PharaohsVizier]

o yea... that would make sure opera works right?  if we can get a cart

[MaHe]

This makes me think ... I can't believe it's almost a year since M3 came out  :shock:

This would be a great step forward.
You'll be able to:
Use the rumble pack (for the handful of games that support it)
Use the browser.
Use the tilt sensor (if the rumours are true)
and do proper gba/ds linkage

Yay!
Lets hope it works as well as a superCard or that RomMan has one in the works too!!

New stuff keeps coming out.  Im never gonna decide what I want

Then you gotta ask yourself if the DSlink is cool enough enough for you to give up playing GBA titles. We also have no idea how the DSlink is going to work and how well it will work (for such cutting-edge equipment, problems are bound to arise)
For now, I'm going to stick to buying a SClite, with its proven capabilities and support, and maybe get the DSlink if and when the GBA titles run dry (by then, the DSlink should have matured). Doesn't hurt that the both use microSD cards as well.

awe, i've been waiting for a slot 1 adaptor, just have to wait for a minisd version i guess, which look hard to do, but is possible

[Thundrestrike]

whats the homebrew support for this thing?

if its not got homebrew support, then ill barf all over it

Problem with this device is that it needs your DS to be flashed in order to work! It doesn't function as a Nopass device. So get our your tin foil and toothpicks!

You will also have to patch the roms like current flashcart solutions.

Good news is that this product should be releasing by the end of the month.

They also posted the pics earlier.

Your DS must be flashed in order to use this device as it doesn't function as a Nopass card.
