None of the Supercards have the hardware required to make a GBA game run correctly, namely having enough RAM. That's why the M3 Pro line is cheaper, it also forgoes GBA support.

Bah, going to have to get a cart just for the GBA now (Normally, i wouldn't care about the GBA support, but i have one with the Z80 processor in it, so it can play GB and GBC backups)

But thanks though, your telling me exactly what i want to know (Y)

:angry: Me too. Damn them!! And they have got good user reviews somehow. I knew it was a mistake to get it from somewhere else other than good 'ol trustworthy kicktrading. Oh well, I'm thinking of getting an M3 Lite as well. Looks like I might end up recieving them both at the same time :p
Has anyone bought from Gamersection.ca before? Are they reliable?
I've heard good and bad things about them. Most of the complaints involve their high prices. What are you looking at getting?

Heh, I'm thinking it's even worse for me.

I preordered with Divineo and haven't gotten that warning email at all.

I didn't get a warning email, this was a reply to one I sent them. It's because they're not an "official" Supercard dealer, I think. I should do more research next time.

I was thinking of the Supercard Lite package (excluding MicroSD), last checked they have 29 in stock as of this post. Is $78.50US a good/reasonable price?

haha i still havn't ordered the Supercard Lite, I need some reviews first.

JianBing, if u are buying M3 Lite as well, u probably will sell ur Supercard Lite, and u can get rid of it easily by selling it to me :p

And $78.5 sounds good to me rayjin.

BTW, new Firmware for Supercard is out! Starfox works great on it!

Ya... I like some review too... there are just too many choices out there. I don't know what's the best for me. I was first looking at the G6 Lite, then now I probably prefer SC Lite because of the expandability of size. I would like to know the compatibility of SC Lite though for Homebrew apps, GBA, and NDS. THis thing might just well replace my PDA :rofl:

Can someone post a summary on where we are at in regards to flash GBA cards that fit flush in the DS Lite? Like, when is the G6 Lite in English going to be out... is the supercard lite available?

So far, we have the G6Lite and the Supercard Lite that sit flush. The SCL is available, if you can find a place that isn't out of stock, and I do believe the English G6L is out too. There is also the EZFlash IV Lite (what I use), it sticks out less than a millimetre. However, homebrew compatibility isn't great, but GBA and DS compatibility is top notch.

Also, Winsunx are listing the M3 Lite, but they don't have a price or release date, so it's probably speculation.

Congratz!

What does ScummVM do exactly?

ScummVM is a software that runs classic LucasArts adventure games that are based on the SCUMM Engine.

a few of those include "Secret of Monkey Island", "Manic Mansion", "Day of the Tentacle", "Sam & Max: Hit the Road", "Full Throttle" (though this doesn't run on the DS) and lots more. if you wanna take a look:

PC: http://scummvm.org/

DS: http://scummvm.drunkencoders.com/

games run pretty well on the DS, too :D now I can get my Monkey Island fix on the go :p

Star Fox Command is pretty addictive, too

Oh...one more thing...I am about to place my order tonight. I am not as concerned with homebrew as I am DS ROM support (for my backups)...which is the best all around?--->the Supercard Lite or the EZ Flash IV?

From what I can tell, they're both very similar. I use the EZF4, and nearly all roms run, except for Ultimate Spiderman and a couple others. However, word is that the Supercard Lite gets better read speeds, so there aren't any pauses during high-load times in some games, like Animal Crossing. EZF4 has much much better GBA support though, so if want to play a fair number of GBA games, go with that. Otherwise, I think the SCL would be better, plus it looks nicer :)

    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Nvidia has a fresh update for GeForce NOW subscribers today, bringing in more games to add to its ever-growing supported titles list. At the same time, the company announced the kick-off for its summer sale for the streaming subscription service, dropping the prices for both its premium packages for anyone looking to upgrade or join. The offer is for the 12-month membership options that the company offers. This drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. Next, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping prices by $70 from the original $199.99. "The Performance membership delivers smooth, high-quality cloud gaming across devices, with streaming up to 1080p at 60 frames per second (fps) and access to RTX-powered servers for supported games," says Nvidia, describing its tiers. "The Ultimate membership steps things up with RTX 4080‑ or 5080‑class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K and beyond on ultrawide displays, up to 120 fps, and advanced features like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex for a more responsive, visually rich experience." With the sales out of the way, here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: NBA THE RUN (New release on Steam, available on June 9) Witchspire (New release on Steam, available on June 10) SpaceCraft (New release on Steam, available on June 11) Duet Night Abyss (Launcher) DOOM Eternal (Epic Games Store) The Elder Scrolls Online (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Farever (Steam) World of Tanks: HEAT (Wargaming) Nvidia plans to add support for a bunch of more games during the rest of June. Find the full announcement from last week over here. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
    • Microsoft explains why PowerToys 0.100.0 is faster and slimmer, there are new features too

      It's actually shocking how logs filling disks has been a constant issue going back for decades, yet we see very little improvement over the years. Even in the server world, its actually shockingly common for a server to either go totally down, or have a critical alert raised due to logs filling disks.
    • YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries by David Uzondu Late last year, YouTube started testing a "new" way to share videos directly with friends, without having to leave the app. Now, the video giant has announced that is now rolling out a revamped direct messaging inbox, which lets you share videos, Shorts, and live streams and have conversations about them, directly on YouTube. The platform limits this feature to 18+ users who are signed in to a verified channel and use the latest mobile app version. Direct messaging on YouTube first became a thing back in 2017 inside the mobile app (later renamed to "Messages"), where users could chat one-on-one and share clips directly, but all that came to an end on September 18, 2019, when Google decided to shut it down after giving users a month to download a .zip file archive of their past chats. No one really knows why YouTube killed the feature, but users were encouraged to migrate to the public Comments section, on Community tab posts, and via YouTube Stories. The previous incarnation suffered from moderation challenges, prompting Google to implement stricter safety guidelines and age verifications for this new iteration. Here's a list of the countries where the re-launched feature is currently available, though note that Brand Accounts do not have access to it, at least for now: Countries American Samoa Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Guam Hungary Iceland Ireland Italy Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Northern Mariana Islands Norway Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Romania Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland U.S. Virgin Islands United Kingdom United States Before you can use the feature, you first have to send an invite link to your contact. Invite links expire exactly seven days after you create them. If the person on the other end accepts the invite, you can exchange videos directly and text back and forth inside the app. To delete a message, just long-press on the message and tap unsend to remove it for both users. You can also delete entire conversations by long-pressing the thread and selecting delete, but the other person will continue to see the chat history on their end. To make sure everything remains safe, YouTube monitors these messages to ensure they follow Community Guidelines.
