DSi blocks DS Flashcards from operating

Nintendo has done what we all expected and blocked the Nintendo DSi from running what seems to be nearly every single flash card on the market. If you have a CycloDS, G6 DS Real, M3 DS Real, Supercard DS One, iTouch DS, FCard, NCard, M3 DS Simply, U2DS, R4 DS and EZ Flash V don?t expect any of them to work. It seems the DSi blocks both auto boot cards and ones that boot from the menu. If it?s auto boot it crashes and while the others show up in the menu but once selected come up with an error. Bad news for pirates, good news for Nintendo and bad news for legitimate homebrew. But how long till they crack it?

yeah.. damn, payng for games, bah, srew that.

Why should we have to pay for hours of entertainment, it's not likt there are programmers and artists who spends thousands of hours making these games who deserve to be paid or anything.

A: I play emulators like GBC and NES, as well as a little bit of SNES, but I love homebrew, enough for it to make a difference in what I buy. Not buying a DSi, games are too childish, and if they block flash cards, screw them.

If you want to play homebrew and emulators, you should buy one of the open/open source handhelds.

just a matter of time before someone crack it...
