DS lite help

I just purchased one of these for my daughter and it come with 15 games.

Now there are some girlie ones but i have looked on the web and see that i can acquire these games.

My question is this, I see there is no port on the DS, so how do i get the game from pc to DS.

I had a look around and I think im needing some card and and some cord, but some advice from the experts would be much appreciated.

I'll vouch for this. I have the M3 Simply (predecessor to the recently released real, and the Real is better than the Simply in every way.

ok, i have checked it out and have one basic question about it

does that m3 real slot into my drive and then slots into the ds?

what im asking is, do i still need a lead to plug into the ds or does the card fit both my hard drive and ds?

im not pc smart so a little more info please

The games get stored on an SD card which fits snugly into the R4 or M3.



Check out the threads in this section called R4DS and Nintendo DS for some links.

Yeah, basically the R4/M3 (or my personal favourite, the SuperCard) use MicroSD cards... You remove the MSD from the cartridge, stick it in the supplied USB adapter doohickey and shove it up your PC - then you just drop .nds files onto it and BOSCH!

There's reviews of just about everything dodgy right here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showforum=99

cheers guys

so the card has a usb doohicky which makes love to the pc

Yeah unless your laptop has a card reader, then you don't need the USB cock thing.

I've got the M3 Simply and find it superb, what does the Real do better?

Just being inquisitive not being sarky.

Better memory card support (trivial), but more importantly faster updates. Some new games (ie: the new final fantasy) don't work by default on the Simply, you have to hack / patch it.

I forget the rest, because I don't really care for one, as the Simply does everything just fine


Posted by Neversoft on 04-16-2008 09:29 PM:

^That's one of the reasons I favour the SuperCard guys. Very fast updates, even for my old SC Lite.

Do the M3/R4 support SDHC?


Posted by KayDawg on 04-17-2008 02:23 AM:

They use microSD cards..not sure if there are memory limits though.

Yes, the M3 Real added HCSD support.

Ah, sorry. I was referring to the m3 Smiply

Also, the new Square game (The World Ends with You) looks amazing, but supposedly has issues with the older cards. I'll try it out soon enough, but it is a headache to have to research it >:O
