Dear God man, it's 10 dollars.

That's like a week of wait.

I wouldn't know much of either, seeing as I'm not a Nintendo type guy, but it's likely the DSi is worth 10 extra.

R4's are a bit difficult to work... You have to know what you're doing. It's basically a more advanced version of homebrew.

It's not working it thats hard, all it is is basic folder labelling and dragging/dropping. im just wondering how reliable it is.

You don't want to wi-fi with them, unless you want to risk it.

You don't have to download them and I would have just saved for the 3DS. Virtual Console. Awesome games (might import because I doubt the American version will have the awesome pre-installed games).

not spending that much on a portable system. its just for casual use, my main gaming is done on my xbox.

You forget, though, most handhelds are like consoles now.

Regardless, one game you need to get if you like storyline and gameplay is The World Ends With You.

Difficult to work? You download files, drag into minisd, drag ROM in. BAM

also get acekard2i.

i cant find a flash card that i dont need paypal to buy.. my moms credit card never works with paypal for some reason. might just end up buying games. theyre dirt cheap anyway. i just picked up hotel dusk for 14 bucks.

I meant more along the lines of making the files. i.e. hacks

 

[David]

man, this game, hotel dusk is legit. anyone else have it?

 

[Bacon Boy]

Nope. Never got around to buying it. Still, TWEWY.....

 

[Tyeforce]

Why would you get a DS at this point in time?! The 3DS is only months away...

 

[........]

^I agree. When the 3DS is actually out you're gonna wish you had waited a few more months...

I agree, with Tye, the DS Lite is a absolute rip-off if you're buying it just for casual use but, if you bought the thing to play DS and GBA cartridges that would be different. Once the 3DS comes around, you're going to be wishing that you saved your money for it instead of spending it on a DS Lite. The 3DS will be able to play DS & 3DS Games and have downloadable Gameboy games which will save a crap load of money for everyone wanting to experience the handheld classics(GBA games haven't been confirmed yet).
