Hi, Ive been reading over these forums for a few days gathering various information about the card and Im seriously considering buying the sd version of the card. However I have a couple questions both related and slightly unrelated to the card that I cant seem to find the answers to. The first is, I noticed that one of the advertised features of the sc card is a cheat system, Im wondering if its any good & what kind of codes it uses (gameshark, action replay, etc.). Would I be better off buying a gameshark if I wanted a cheat system and does gameshark work with the supercard? My second question is still related to the card, just not directly. Ive looked at pictures of the nds & gba sp batteries and they appear to be the same size and voltage, is that the case and can an sp battery be used in an nds? I ask because I came across a 1000 mA battery for the sp at lik-sang.com and since the sc shortens the play time for the nds being able to use that battery would help compensate for it.
Thanks in advance. ^^

Well let me try and clear some things ..  yes sc got a cheat function but it's only for GBA games .. and there hard to understand as they are in chinese ;P as a game shark would probobly connect to the main nds port and u then stick in a game to overrides some settings real time i do not belve this as we use the GBA slot .. no cheating! ;P about the battery issue yes it does take more power as the sc card is ram based that sux the living thing out of everything .. and yes GBA SP and NDS do have the same type of battery i belive .. not sure tho haven't checked yet. still it's a pain to change with the screw all the time ;P but it would work yes.

somethings u haven't think of is that not all homebrew is as of yet supported by the Sd version but it's changing slowly but steady. but as i also just bought my SCSD i like it and if its only for playing NDS games it's the best  cheapest card.. but the GBA compability list could be biger hope they fix the issues..  anyway i do hope this answers most of your questions. And good luck with you buy..
