Well, the M3 is the more advanced cart. It has more and faster RAM, allowing for better GBA compatibility and a larger, more advanced firmware. I've always just gone for the Supercard because GBA isn't that important to me (the Supercard has almost perfect compaitbility anyway) and I couldn't justify almost double the price just for a GUI. That said, I have some extra money these days, so I think I just might go for the M3 Lite over the Supercard Lite, pending the release of both so I can compare.

A lot of people prefer the SC over M3 because it's nice and simple. It's up to you to decide how much you want to spend and if a GUI is important enough to you to spend all that extra money.

Somebody should make SC3 Lite (combination of both). With M3's tech, and SC's price.

Haha. Well the M3 team are now making the M3 Pro. It's an M3 with no GBA support, and it's a bit less than the Supercard. So there is that alternative if you don't plan on playing any GBA backups. Still haven't heard anything about an M3 Pro Lite, but I assume they will make it at some point.

I'm looking for info about the M3 lite and the SC lite, but haven't found any :(

can somebody post a link please?

There is simply not a lot of info available about them right now. The creators of both carts have not released any official information about them. Only small details to people via MSN and email.

there was a forum topic on one of the main sites about this kind of stuff where people got an email back from the M3 creator saying it would be out this month. with the supercard also out this month we should have some nice choices before us come the end of july if all these dates hold true.

i'll be waiting for both to come out before making my choice :) hopefully i'll be over in hong kong start of august so can get one while im there~~ :)

thanks JB for keeping us updated.. sorting through other websites has been tiresome. it seems people all over are asking the same questions over and over. perhaps a really detailed FAQ should be made for all these forums..

Check out the text document I've attatched. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Also, I posted my compile of it earlier in the thread. You can check that out.

A Chinese blog site has posted renders of a mystery flashcart. They are not saying what one it is, only that it will be out next month in China for about 35USD. Could it be the Supercard Lite or M3 Lite?

Sweet! Psxbox.net has the EZ-Flash IV Lite's back in stock so mine got shipped today! And my Nintendo DS Lite arrived today.. Overnight shipping for free! I <3 Amazon.com lol.

Now all i need is the microsd card i ordered and waiting for my ez flash 4 to get here from china and i can start having some fun!!

Is there anything you can do with a ds without a game to play? I see a download option, but it doesn't exactly do anything.

Download is for multiplayer when somebody else has a game, and for download stations such as Best Buy and EBgames, where u can download demos to try within the store (the games are gone when u walk out or close the DS)

U can play with the pictochat :p I draw stuffs on it like a flipbook, and then press L and R together and it'll flip thru like a flipbook animation.

And, JianBing, isn't that the Neo something flashcart? Thanks for the readme.

Well, you can find a DS Download Station and play some demos. Or lpay some old GBA games

That's about it till all the homebrew equipment gets to your door. :pinch:

I don't think so. This is the Neo.

As you know my Chinese isn't great, so I got my girlfriend to double check it for me. It kind of teases you not telling what one it is, but from the clues it gives, I think it might be the M3.

Hmm.. the Readme u uploaded isn't working Jianbing :(

Try this.

Is anybody making a Lite flashcart for MiniSD? I would hate to have to buy a micro just for this.

I don't think that's possible. A MiniSD slot is just too big to fit in something the size of the GBA cover.

      Formatting would be awesome if fully customised and then roll out the settings as a company wide standard.

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it

      By TheGhostPhantom · Posted

      This article does not make sense and it’s very evident, the bug wasn’t confirmed to exist, because the application itself runs on editions of Windows which make it impossible to run Hyper-V VMs on, “Basically, Claude Desktop on Windows spins up a 1.8GB Hyper-V virtual machine if you use Claude Cowork or agent mode even once.”, suggests the bug is caused by something else otherwise it would only happen to users with the capability of running Hyper-V VMs and that’s only if Hyper-V was enabled which is by default not enabled. The true issue is that the author who reported the bug used the incorrect terminology, it’s actually a container, not a VM that is being started by the way. There were users on macOS reporting the same issue, Hyper-V, doesn’t exist on that platform obviously. Every single user who confirmed the problem in the last week was either using macOS making this issue impossible to be relevant to them, or was a comment talking about WSL, which the author indicated 3 months ago was disabled.
    • Stack Overflow is launching a version of itself for AI agents

      By TheGhostPhantom · Posted

      “To prevent hallucination issues and keep the database clean, the platform uses a multi-agent verification loop to check code quality.” - This absolutely isn’t happening. ”Before the massive rise of LLMs, which tanked its traffic by about 50% over the last couple of years, Stack Overflow was the go-to website for millions of programmers seeking coding solutions.” - It still is trusted, because the community of users, blocked other users from submitting false and misleading answers generated by AI agents that can be convinced something it generated is actually incorrect even if it’s actually correct. The company itself doesn’t know what it wants to be so it keeps trying and failing to introduce AI features to the platform. This effort will also fail, already submitted one successful poison pill, look forward to generating more.
