[QUOTE="Apache Thunder, post: 10396978, member: 105648"] Yeah I'm not sure how that side of it works under the hood. I do know that it doesn't present it's main rom 1:1 to what is present on nand (the arm7 binary is no where to be found. Maybe in the odd compressed/encrypted blob of data it stores after the arm9 binary) and the asic chip can do the block mapping sorta but doesn't set that up on it's own so a rom has to load before hand to set up the nand's block tables and map the next rom to be booted. So there are some limitations the original N-Card had. As for saves N-Card uses a battery backed SRAM chip for that and would copy the save back to nand after a reboot. I suppose you could do something similar to that but then you'd need to either setup a loader that boots before the game or account for it in any games you plan to use for it. EDIT: But if it's gonna be a single game cart you don't really need to worry about copying the save out of the chip. The very early N-Cards didn't have a menu and you'd flash a single game to it for it's main rom to boot. In that case the sram chip contents didn't need to be saved to nand because it always ran the same game. [/QUOTE]
