Greetings,

I am a happy owner of a Supercard SD.

I am considering purchasing the Superpass adapter, whats the general opinion on the device?

Hows the load speed?

Do any of the DS games slow down?

Is the current save system a pain?

What are its faults?

I know the device is reasonably cheap, I just want to get an idea before I make my purchase.

Hi There,

I have had my Superpass about a week, I am really chuffed

All the working games run at full speed but at this time saving is done via the boot game you are using, for example I am saving N4SU on my Mario 64, I am supprised to find my Mario save is also still intact!

Some games save to the Metriod demo but tnd to get erased when you change games!

Loading is a bit slow but once loaded its just like playing the real DS game

No faults really, just some imcompatible games but hopefully we will get support for saves to the CF card and games over 256mb.

Have fun...

Steve.

Thanx Steve,

A appreciate your response

I've made the purchase, and now I wait........

The save to SD card functionality may be out before I get my device, woo hoo.

Whats the average load time?

Do you know of a URL with a list of the Rom sizes?

I just took 35 seconds for Need for Speed 2 to load, its a 256mb rom, the bigest the SC takes at the moment.

So half that for 128mb, etc.

Have fun with you SC

You could also try trimming them to increase load time and decrease size

35 seconds is more than reasonable for the functionality the device offers, cool

I was under the impression that I would be re-living the days of loading games from a Commodore 64 Tape drive!

The SC is a cool device, I cant wait until I get my SuperPass....

Have you tried Advance Wars DS yet?

dont wast time playing Need for speed.. play castlevania... its workig perfectly ...

Advance wars is working, you need a real game with large saves like Madden or Nintendogs for it to save right. Good game I might add, just like AW2 on GBA but with a touch screen.

I will give Castlevania a try, I've never been a fan of that series though...  Just got Anouther Code working. WOW

But I still play NFS the most

I already have 7 games for my ds so saving isnt an issue ive got lots of finished games to overwrite

Also Nanostray is good for the odd quick game, they could have done a lot more, would have made a great Starwing style game but its essentually a vertical shooter with 3d graphics.

I was looking for this, too, and I found one, so I figured I'll share it with you!
