I have the same problem with me Supercard CF.

Sunday I try to play to Tetris DS in multiplayer with a friend but I just get a black and white nintendo logo, like you.

He didn't have a Supercard  in his Ds just me.

Could this be the problem ?

Oh joy our favourite subject  :D

In short, when using a superCard to send a game for download play, only a flashed DS will be able to download and play it.

This is because the RSA signature is broken when sending from ROMs and unflashed DS will reject the download.

There are however a few games that dont do this, dont know why personally either the game doesnt use RSA or the RSA is for some reason still intact. Anyways these games such as StarFox will still work.

If you have one flashed DS and one non-flashed DS use a SuperKey to boot the SuperCard and send to the flashed DS.

Is it possible to play multiplayer with 2 Ds both with Supercard and Superkey or they need to be flashed ?

Thanks.

Ok first off I'm assuming you are talking about single Cart Download Play.
MultiCart mulitplayer should work regardless of the flashed state of the DS's.
For Single Cart download multiplayer,
The hosting DS can be flashed or non flashed.
But the DS doing the Downloading should be Flashed.
This is because the RSA signature gets messed up from the superCard and a non-flashed DS will fail the security check when it downloads.
FlashMe goes "ha" to invalid RSA signatures.....
Or something like that anyway.

But even Multicart doesn't work for me,  I have TMNT 3 on my SC and my brother has the real game and we still can't play co-op. Why is that?

Really? Thats the first time I've heard multi-cart not working.
Are you sure both versions are from the same region? Maybe some games need to from the same region to work.
I know the Jap Animal Crossing is not compatible with the english version due to language differences.

ImmortalNinja, so far whats the list of working single-pak games like Bomberman and Starfox.

Oki doki
Had a look at turtles didnt work for me either using two supercards with Flashme and superKey.
The U version wouldnt talk to the E version at all.
The E's and U's would talk amonst themselves but then get a connection error when the game tries to start....
So I guess this game is programmed in some weird way where the multiplayer doesnt work properly from superCard...
:(
With regards to the compatablilty list, been too busy at work to do any testing.
Should have something by the end of the week....
