DomG Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 M3 is much more expensive than the SC, for little more than a pretty interface... If I had to choose between the M3 and SC, I'd go SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji@nBing Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 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.

Bei337 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Somebody should make SC3 Lite (combination of both). With M3's tech, and SC's price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morficus Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 I'm looking for info about the M3 lite and the SC lite, but haven't found any :( can somebody post a link please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ji@nBing Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fukachu Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 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? Chinese site Readme_ENG.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bei337 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ji@nBing Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) And, JianBing, isn't that the Neo something flashcart? Thanks for the readme. 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. Edited July 14, 2006 by Ji@nBing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
