Let's just agree to disagree. Because I'm not going to argue about this. And the thing you were saying about third party sellers offering ready-to-use cards was entirely my point in the first place. So congrats we agree. PCBWay (etc) and ordering...
Hi, I'm also part of the team.
It will be as easy as ordering any R4 card clone from Aliexpress, we even expect third party sellers to offer ready-to-use DSpico cards in online stores (not ideal but we know it's going to happen, the best option...
Lol. I'm just saying, love the project, but I've seen so many people struggle to drag the firmware for their card onto an SD. Having to order the card off of PCBWay (and the shell then snapping them together) will filter so many people right out...
We intend to make it as accessible to the people who arent that technical so its not a burden for them, as well as tutorials obviously. The only "DIY" part will be receiving the cartridge, setupping it, and clipping the case together (which tbf...
Our project will support dsi-enhanced features as well as dsi exclusive titles.
Making a programmable cartridge is outside the scope of the project, though nothing will prevent you or anybody from making your own flashcart with the features you...
Ooooooo, neat. I'll probably order one from PCBWay just to have one. I kinda wonder if any Chinese cloners will start making these carts too. I suppose it depends on how well it ends up working. The RP2040 is such a cheap and versatile little chip.
That's awesome, I had no idea your team was working on a new flashcart!
I'd love for it to have NOR flash memory, similar to EZ-FLASH's OMEGA. I think that would solve the lack of DSi-enhanced support, while also finally allowing Pokemon Dream...
I am part of a team by the name of Lost Nintendo History. For the past 3 years now, we've been working on an open-source flashcart targeting every system in the *DS line of products.
The flashcart is based on the rp2040, and we expect to release...
If you want to write your own program for your microcontroller, I think the best I can do is to explain how mine currently works? I'm not an expert in this field so there are most likely some parts that are wrong.
The DS cartridge protocol is...
Hey, I found this while doing research into whether it would be possible to make NDS repro carts at home (note my wording, "possible" not "practical", i just wanna do it to see if I could lol) and after almost losing hope that it is even a...
I'm working on a budget with chips I can afford, and there's also limited space on a physical cartridge, so the best I can use are SPI NAND FLASH chips, which have slower read speeds. I have looked at some more SPI NAND flash chips, and it turns...
I assume the latency from your microcontroller is the cause of the tight timings. Any decent NAND flash chip with a minimum of a 8 bits wide bus should be fast enough assuming the block mapping table is cached and the read request goes...
I may try the new ram site, and download more RAM to my Switch. Not sure if ddr3 is the right ram
for it tho. Edit- no it uses floppy Ram, just like @AncientBoi
