Would any of you guys do a case mod of your ds?
maybe replace it with a transparent case...

@dragonic, lol dude...truth be told i hardly get a chance to game, well if you compare it to the old days..ya how when u'd sit 8-10hours playin ff7 in ur tightie-whities and only gettin up to grab a new bag of chips or take a dump!!! - - -> or maybe not!! i just grab a half an hour or so a day to use my ds; and thats just a cryin shame.

anyhoo, ffiv is really great thus far. it kinda has an ffvii graphic feel to it but has much better cg cutscenes. I'm sorta finding ffiv betta than ffiii cos the storylines seems more well, lets just say it has a storyline!!!! but i just started so more when i get into it more

 

[pedalpusher]

how do u get to world 4 and 7....ive completed the game but not sure how to get there?

 

[pedalpusher]

^^^ that was for New super mario bros by the way

 

[Dr@g0nic]

@Pedal
LMAO i got world 4 i dunno what i did though, went into some door and got shot to world 4 with a massive cannon.
anyways im still in world 2 though.

@T2H
Huh? Why?

@imaginary
IGN.com considers FFIV better aswell

AAARGHH!!!! I NEED TO PLAY!!!

@ Dragonic

saw a couple of modded cases over in japan, wanted to see if anyone has thought of modding theirs around these parts of the world

 

[Dr@g0nic]

well it did come to mind....
but first i got a screen to fix

but back to the modding topic, any ideas, hints, tuts, etc?
we can help others who wants to, not that i dont want to.

 

[pedalpusher]

hi guys.... wen i put the m3 sakura into my ds it says no system file found.....wat must i do?

 

[Dr@g0nic]

download latest firmware from www.m3adapter.com (in the download section it will probably send you to dsgogogo.com or something but its fine) and copy it over to your memory card

 

[imaginary_friend]

hmmmmmmm an ff mod case would look wicked.....got any screens or more info T2H??

Dudes, i dunno about the rest of u but I've been using the EDGE4DS card and gameplay/firmware/cheats have been flawless. theres been talk of this card being a cycloDS knockoff...but wateva da case, i love it and i only paid R300..

 

[pedalpusher]

ok ive done that and ive put a game on but it wont let me select it?

 

[Dr@g0nic]

i believe you have to put it in a folder named NDS and i think you have to create it. i also believe there's documetation on it somewhere. theres a manualwhere you got the firmware, cant remember if it helps

@imaginary
FF DS or the other FF?

also i see theres a howto on youtube but youtube is blocked at my work. so i cant say if its any good

ty T2H, will appreciate that; those screens dragonic put up is makin me hungry for a mod
I bought the edge directly from the site www.edge4ds.com I first heard about it from bidorbuy.co.za I paid via paypal and i got delivery within the month cos i opted for the cheapest shipping option...i dnt have another card actually, once i had the EDGE, i didnt feel the need for another card. Although man, i do want the ram expansion pack and a slot two card so i can use the opera rom i got. If u have one, let me know the details and the price....ty again

 

[think_2_hard]

@I_F
My bad, So many customers, so little memory

I have a EZ-Flash 3in1 expansion pack, you can have it if you pay the shipping as I am unsure if it works or not as I use a toptoy (not compatible unless I load different firmware, but too lazy).

I'll look into prices on slot two cards as well for you.

 

[Dr@g0nic]

@ Imaginary
Dont worry bro i got the same itch now but my screen is irritating me and i first want to get that fixed. oh i played FFIII last night, just went to the first village though coz i was tired but atleast i started.

Also damn nintendo still hasn't replied to my email.

@ Pedal
That youtube thing was directed at the mods.

Did you create the folder named NDS and put your roms in there?
also if you didnt create it you cant still select roms my means of the files option(think its the 3rd or 4th option on the main menu)
If thats not it how exactly do you mean it dont want to let you select the game?

 

[zaayid]

wow that chrome ds looks *** mooi! omg

 

[think_2_hard]

DS Lite with all the extras stated on page 22 (DSTT; 2GB; spare battery...)

Friend is now desperate, will settle for R1600.
