I was so close to ordering the G6 off them too. I just ordered the MK4 Mini from Yangke Games, the order status has been updated to "processing", now all I need is a flash cart.

Cool. Hope we will hear about SC and M3 Lite very soon.

I ordered my SuperKey from Real Hot Stuff. Good prices, they had my item in stock, and the delivery was very fast. I ordered it Friday morning and it arrived Monday afternoon. I ordered from Kick Trader before, and it could just be a location thing but it took about 2 weeks to get my items... i almost forgot what I ordered by then :s. But they are up in Canada and I'm down here in the southwest US.

sam_goffe: yeah, that is correct. You need a storage device (Supercard + SD Card in your case) and a way to trick the DS into reading your storage device (Superkey will work for that). If you have a DS Lite, I would recommend waiting a month or so because new storage devices will be coming out that do not stick out of the device. The old ones for the orginal DS (and GBA) stick out quite a bit. You may not be as picky as some of us.

Latest news from Romman (the creator of Supercard) is that it will be ready at the end of this month. Hopefully this time it's true, unlike when he said it will be out the beginning of this month :p

You can buy SuperCard Lite in the end of this month.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Best Regard.

And a post by the admin of the Unofficial Supercard Forums

I talked to Romman last night but didn't ask about the bios, I will ask him now. He did say the Supercard Lite will be finished this month and that he is sending me a sample to review. I will post a review with a ton of pics when I recieve the Supercard Lite. I will reply as soon as he replies to me about the bios.

Supercard

Superkey

SD card (or compatable with supercard)

You can get them here. He already has the Supercard Lite's on order though, so you may want to wait until the end of the month when he gets them.

Thanks for making this thread, it really opened my eyes as to how much use i'd get out of a nintendo ds. I ordered one off of amazon.com and an ez-lite iv / mk4 key or something from psxbox.net - Sadly it's out of stock and i'm waiting around for them to re-stock. Hopefully within the next week or so.. i can't wait any longer lol!

so my supercard and superkey arrived today...

UUUUUUNNNNLLLLIIIIMMMMIIIITTTEEEDDDD PPPOOOOOWWWWWWEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

yeah, i'm excited..; but the thing is so cool now... got some roms working, dsorganize works, although sensitivity could be better, ji@anbings moonshell works (can you also launch roms from moonshell? or just movies, mp3s and such?), batchdpg works great, mp3 works, gba works... everything's just... GREAT!!!

except... one thing... 1Gig miniSD... it's full... it's too damn small ffs!!!! or..... maybe i can carry 2? or 3? one with music, one with movies, one with games...

but then you'd have to constantly swap the miniscule cards... maybe i can get some extra cards... and some extra dsses...

portable... is relative... :D

:D Glad you got everything up and running ok. See what I mean that I just couldn't live with the 512MB G6 now? :p .

As far as launching ROMS from Moonshell, you can't. I've been bugging Romman to release a plugin that will let you, or at least release the files needed to make one, but he still hasn't.

One extra thing you may want for Moonshell is the thumbnail maker. If you have any pics on there, it will make a thumbnail of them just like in Windows. You can get it in the Moonshell package here. You only have to run it once per folder with pics, not for every individual pic in the folder.

Did you get the homebrew database in DSOrganize working? Not all the apps are totally up to date, nor does it have even close to everything that's available, but it's still really cool to be able to download apps straight to your DS over Wifi.

oooh Supercard Lite! JianBing u gotta post pics when u see some!

You can be sure I will ;)

That is very cool. Can't wait to try it all out. Hopefully all my gear will be arriving next week...

I got all mine from these various places

Supercard > Here

Passkey/Datel MML > Here

SD Card > Here

( I got this card from the flash_memory guy, on arrival and pealing off the label it seems it was just a relabled Toshiba 2 gig card. It's been great and not sure if it is just that Viking are relabled cards. :)

wow! Good work! U deserve a jianbing (1337 version of cookie)!

:p Thanks. Took while to write, but I figured it would cut back on the same kinds of questions being asked over and over again. Plus I was getting a million PM's asking the same questions (no offense to anyone who PM'd me, I'm happy to help), so this will probably save me time in the long run :laugh: .

ok.. so I have a few n00b questions...

I'll be getting a DS lite around mid-august and I'd like to put homebrew on it.

My only question is.... how big of an SD card do you guys think is bear minimum? I could get 512mb for about $12 and a 1gb for around $25.

The price difference is not much.. but is 1gb too much overkill??

Also.. is there any recomended brand???

thanx :)

now gotta debate between new lite friendly supercard and possible lite friendly m3. i wish these companies would release information more. oh well.. both are meant to be coming this month from what i've seen from Ji@nBing and on other forums email correspondence so guess just gotta wait. but the m3 seems to be a bit of a favourite out there.

    • what other retro software do yall use

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
