Couldn't the Supercard people make the Supercard smaller, but still using SD cards? How big is the Play-Yan?

You can buy the miniSD socket in a parts shop.

I need a smaller SC in order to use it on DS Lite, because the SC will be more sticking out of a DS Lite than of a nomal DS, as you know. :?

If you want to use miniSD card on PlayYan instead of SD card, you can do that as follows;

You can swap the miniSD card without removing the PlayYan from your DS!  :lol:

is their a website I can get the mini sd socket from? Ive been searching everywhere and their is nothing I can find.

My spring on my supercard SD broke so I need a new one, where do you get this case thing to sodder in to the supecard? I need one fast, or I might just return my supercard.

I don't see why people are having so much probems finding these sockets. Honestly, I've yet to see a miniSD sold without an adapter, and it's usually the same price (best buy has 512MB miniSDs with adapter for $50, which is the same they charge with full size ones)

[rocky]

Oh is it just a converter you are talking about, the one you get with the SDmini so you can put it in a sd slot? I thougt it was one like installed in the supercard with a spring.

[rocky]

I dont think that is a converter it looks like a case with a spring or something,  I still havent been able to find one.

Edit: Is this the one your talking about?

@koji

The purpose of this adaptation from SD to miniSD is to be able to swap the memory card at the FRONT side.  

@rocky

Take it easy, please!  

[rocky]

yea but can you please answer me. is this the thing you used or ist it an adapter made for mini. it dosnt look like a adaptor. :?

@rocky

All the miniSD cards with an SD converter that are able to work on SC sould work in minSD socket on SD too.  You can use a general miniSD socket for this purpose as follows;

I recommend that you use 30W iron to swap the socket.

ok normaly i would say MiniSD? damn shit ... SD is small enough thats all just to make money and that works fine with poeple who wants to pay 10â,¬ more for some mm. But in that case its cool. i make homebrew to and i am at a point on which emualtor doesnt help any more (supercard fileacces). so i have to swap all the time and i am realy thinking of to do that too. hehe but with minisd i dont want that sticking out when i got my nds with me... damn i see it bricking... but first i have to build a USB device for nds...Never saw? http://natrium42.com/projects/serial.html damn then i can add good support for my little windowz like os... think about a usb hub with a keyboard extern-hdd mouse........endless floating ideas in brain

OKOK, SD card may be best choice for you, but in the near future, GBAlpha will release new M3 the size of which is just a GBA cartridge.  

However, SC for NDSL may be designed if microSD card is available as follows;

. . .  i make homebrew to and i am at a point on which emualtor doesnt help any more (supercard fileacces). so i have to swap all the time and i am realy thinking of to do that too.

I'm off subject here, but Payk you should check out using WiFiMe for homebrew development.  Just imagine at the end of your project build a batch file automatically beams your program to your DS for testing.  Works great for me.
