Hey

Thinking about getting a NINTENDO DS LITE, and have been trying to research about having them patched/hacked/chipped to play copied games.

Want to know what the go with them, can you burn/load games onto them or a memory stick, or is there some way of copying the original games?

Any help would be great >_<

Thanks,

Abu

Okay mate, I can definitely help you out here.

What you need to get yourself is an R4 DS cartridge. It's a cartridge that goes into your normal DS games slot that allows you to insert a MicroSD card. Once you do this, you can just drag on NDS game roms from any of the popular emulation sites on to the MicroSD and run them just like a normal DS game.

THERE IS NO PATCHING/HACKING OR CHIPPING REQUIRED!!! :P

Just buy the R4DS cartridge and a microSD and you're set!

You can buy one from HERE! They're always sold out, so put one on order. Usually takes a week or 2.

Official R4DS website

All that's left is to enjoy your 100% free and 100% working DS games, as well as music and movies. All thanks to a $50 cartridge >_<

Ah you legend, thanks heaps Chris.

I was looking for ages but couldn't find jack!

Just a question, how do you get games from computer to the SD?

Can you hook the DS Lite up to a computer?

Also, what do you think about that R4DS +2gb package for $90?

Thanks,

Abu

To transfer games, I just use an SD card reader. They're cheap and you can pick them up at any software/computer place. The MicroSD will come with an adapter that makes it normal SD sized. You don't need to hook up the DS Lite to anything, just take out card, put it in the SD reader, drag and drop the rom files on to the card, remove card from the reader and stick it back in the DS. >_<

The $90 package is pretty damn good. With a card that size, you'd be able to fit 20-30 games and their save files. I have a 1gb and currently hold 14 games.

Oh very very very good! Easier than I thought.

I got a SD card reader at home come to think of it, so that will work! :P

20 - 30 games will be plenty, where could I download the games from?

Thanks again Chris.

check out the r4ds kit at dealextreme.com also.. pretty good value.

dslite with r4ds rocks.

This kit seems pretty good.

What you guys think?

Too right, I use THIS SITE to find mine. But you can just google "Nintendo DS roms" or something and any site will do.

Thanks man, will have a look at them when I get home.

I've personally never dealt with dealsextreme.com, and for some reason I can't load the page. But yeah, Ozmodchips are really reliable and you'll get an english r4 with the latest firmware from them. I just bought one for a mate from them >_<

Oh ok mad.

I can pay it off my credit card but I don't use paypal. How do you make payment with them?

ive got a little over 1000 games if u want some abu

Thanks Ni, will take you up on that.

Oh ok, might just get the R4SD then and get the MicroSD separate.

I think I got a microSD card somewhere at home from my last phone, 1gb if I am not mistaken.

Is there a store or somewhere I could buy the R4DS from? I hate waiting for shipping/postage >_<

dont know of any in Melb...

Damnnnn!..

Could probably get it from some dodgy stall at the market, but who can be fkd going to the market.

See if anyone else knows, if not then I guess I will have to order it tonight from Ozmodchips and just wait it out.

    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
