I'll take a stab at translating the release notes:

November 7, 2006

DSLink 1.30 version and the Chinese version of the software version 1.30 kernel upgrade

First, DSLink 1.30 software update :

1. Soft reduction support functions (games back DSLink by hotkey interface). If the game doesn't work, delete it and uncheck the reset option before you move it to your microSD card.

2. Soft Reset Function supports various hotkey combinations to support a variety of games.  If the game doesn't conflict, recommend using A+B+SELECT+START hotkey combination.

3. ROM cards added that the remaining space at TF accurate detection of problems. Better use of free space on transflash card?

4. 0434 New Super Mario Bros minigames now work.

5. Increase in Japanese language interface, the software installed Lane choice.  Ummm... You got me.

6. Animal Crossing black screens during wifi - fixed.

7. 0523 and 0652 Tomb Raider works.

8. 0649 Edamoto Naomi no Shiawase Kitchen - Kakushi Aji wa Anata ga Kimete ne fixed.

9. Wolf parties described as shrewd blank screen of the game that will lock the reduction.  Uhhh... huh?

10. Another ROM.DAT 1.30 software includes all the amendments previously, as follows :
(1). Fixed two regression bugs on 0626 (Gyakuten Saiban 2).  Fixes to 0630 Scurge - Hive (fixes blank screen on exit).
(2). Fixed regression bugs on 0606 (Gekitou! Custom Robo), 0240/0482  (Pac-Man World 3), 0482 World 3 suggested filing mistake not to eat beans entered the game the "br problem everywhere.   Uhh. fixed some bugs in there...

11. 0655 Elite Beat Agents update from the reservoir for the English game (fixed a save bug?)
GBA:2562 3in1 - Majesco's Rec Room Challenge (fixed a save bug?).

Simplified Chinese game from the reservoir :

Traditional Chinese game from the reservoir :

Wow, no clue here...

Note : Manually delete the romname.lst from your transflash cart before moving roms over.

Second, the Chinese version DSLink updated version 1.30 kernel : (Note: You cannot use this with an English card!!!)

1. DSLink 1.30 software supports game with soft reset function. See above (reset doesn't work unless you have the kernal update too).

2. System.ini document system to increase the number of installed around the key banging, default values for 3 Key spent about a "br everywhere banging line can modify arbitrary values However, this value is greater than the number of actual documents directly equivalent to turn the top end or the "br everywhere Department. Not sure what this is for ...

3.NDS L, R Key as the direct turns table top and bottom. Use the L and R buttons to go to the top and bottom of the list.

Nice, can't wait 'til this is released for the english ds-link

[darkuni]

English is out NOW!

[tennisgy]

Nacho libre work?

[Ace25]

Has anyone gotten these updates to work? I have tried 1.12 and now 1.3 for the OS update on the card to no avail. Tried running the roms as well as hold start on bootup.. every time I get "DSLink Not Found!"

I have no idea what version I got (English or China). I bought it from PDAPuffin and all the instructions are in english that came with it so I assume that I have the english version. I still have OS 1.11 and no way to update though as it appears I don't have a real DSLink? Their site offers no help at all as their forums are all in mandarin or something.

EDIT: Nevermind.. finally figured it out. I guess I have the chinese version even though everything (box, instructions, card are in english). After looking for the chinese 1.3 update it dawned on me I am clicking english on DS-Links main page which will only show you the english files. I clicked on chinese, got the update and it worked. Only wish the same could be said for Tony Hawk DH.

Nacho Libre will not convert at all with 1.30

[lenselijer]

And Tony Hawk: American Sk8land still doesnt work

[bitblt]

Good news about New Super Mario Bros minigames working. That was really bugging me. I've been busy with work lately so I haven't had a chance to try the new update myself. At least the DSLink team seems to be keeping their promise with providing regular updates.

[darkuni]

Tom & Jerry - no go!

[darkuni]

Digimon - works.
Barbie 12 Dancing Princesses - Works.

Barbie 12 Dancing Princesses - Works.

Ooh, you love it?

[darkuni]

Uhhh. no, it sucks - but in the spirit of testing ...

We now return you to your regularly scheduled game of Pokemon Rangers and Clubhouse Games.

I emailed the DS-Link guys about the Tony Hawk's games and this is what they replied with:


Dan,

 They are both disable to play now, we will try our best to solve them.

Strange:

Chinese 1.30 DS-Link in a White NDS-Lite with flashme 7 and 182 Yu-Gi-Oh starts
The Same Card in a Black NDS-Lite with flashme 7 and 182 Yu-Gi-Oh gives a white Screen.

Tested it with another White and a Black NDS-Lite and the same happens.
Tested 20 other Games like Castlevania, Sonic Rush:
Same Behaviour..........

Greetings Bowie
