Is there any way to hack the original DS to play romhacks off of an SD card or some shit? I know 3DS hacking is pretty well documented, but I can't find much for the original DS.
David Mitchell
Ds hacking is just putting in an r4 card
Eli Flores
i used an r4, there's no input for other kinds of sd cards besides the cartridges

Forgive my boomerness. Guess I have some tinkering to do this weekend.

My bread, the best model is the one I own which is pic related.
GBA SP AGS 101
The back light is even better than the other ags model. The micro is good and fucking aesthetic, but lacks backwards compatibility. Just get a GBA flashcart like me and you'll have every gba cart known to man. I even put all the gba video cartridges on it, and it gave me entertainment and shit to watch when I'd lose internet access for a day.
TOP 5 GBA games?
>Kingdom Hearts: COM
>Medal of Honor: Infiltrator
>Wario Ware Twisted

If you have a DSi you can install TwilightMenu and play DS (and gba I think) ROMs without an r4.
Wyatt Baker
This looks like someone tore a DS lite in half
Robert Davis
How big is it? Is backwards compatible?

ips has brighter colors and backlight. ips has a larger viewing angle. ags 101 is a bit more sharp, and has a bit less lag, no screen tearing. Although, the screen tearing issue has been solved with ips v2, I've never noticed any lag with it.
Jose Ramirez
SP is the definition of non-ergonomic designs. anything bigger than a childs hand makes it uncomfortable to hold, especially in games that use the shoulder buttons. Not to mention the terrible ghosting the 101 screen has
I just modded my original GBA with an IPS screen, and its far better. You get the ergonomic design of the GBA with an even better screen than the SP
Michael Morales
If you have a fucked up unfixable ds light, these are pretty cool. Feels like a gba, but thinner and lighter.
it IS a ds lite
James James
For me, it's the GBA SP.

>Wario Land 4

I also played a bunch of GBC games on it at the time.
Thomas Jenkins
In a few years you might be old enough to play them.
Isaac Fisher
Original GBA with backlight mod.
>audio output was in the upper part so no sound
heh
David Morgan
AGS-101 or this
Christian Perry
When was the last time you linked gba or used it with a gamecube? I'm not being pissy I'm genuinely curious.
William Howard
I have an AGS-001 and it doesn't look that bad irl
James King
>no sound
It still has a headphone jack, but no speakers is a deal breaker for me
Jaxon Turner
Goodluck finding anyone holding on to decrepit hardware to use them.
Jordan Roberts
There is a better ips panel out there now. Ags 101 have screen tearing issue.
Kayden King
consolizer
Easton Gray
Enjoy ghosting and less battery life than youd get with an IPSv2
Jose Cooper
I like my SP, but I wouldn't mind a modded original GBA.

>anything bigger than a childs hand makes it uncomfortable to hold
Unless you're giving it the death grip, I don't think so.
Juan Morales
3DS is sadly on bottom of the list of nintendo consoles, it goes:
GBA orig/SP with IPS mod > GBA SP ags 101 > 3DS/DSi/DS < GBA SP regular > GBA
due to the higher res screens of the DS', and lack of scaling options, you either have blown up filtered (a good filter at least) or forced pixel perfect, but the pixel perfect is waaaay too small especially on the n3DS.

Regarding the best way to play them, idk i played them on my DS Lite and now on my 3DS.
Alexander Fisher
Has anyone tried these pearl finish cases?
Christian Walker
is the gba player for gamecube now really expensive or something? who would buy this?
Justin Cooper
not him, but the consolizer outputs at a better resolution, and has more options. id rather just use my gameboy player, but for the autists out there, they have that
