great news i'd say, exciting times for the DS right now. Looks like DS homebrew is sprinting off past the PSP.

Sounds good, but where did you get the info on this? Can't seem to find anything about this anywhere else. Also any idea on release dates, prices, etc..

Hopefully a good SNES Emu isnt far away. A flash cart, custom firmware, great hardware... things are lookin good. I just hope SFX chips can be emulated.... think of the possibilities...portable Starfox ^_^

This is fantastic news, I was so impressed with my GBA Flash Linker, that I'll get one of these as soon as it becomes on sale!

As for SNES, don't get your hopes up for Super FX Chipped games, but everrything else should work a treat, *crosses fingers for earthbound*

Well as you know the GBA has a ton of great emulators and the DS should see full speed versions of all of them and maybe even a Megadrive emulator

Nintendo 64 i would say is way out of range to emulate but Snes at full speed would be good.

Heres some pics off the same site as above but they are just promo banners

Yea, but then again no one thought SNES on GBA was possible and then Loopy came along.

These photos are still a bit too doctored. Oddly enough there is a slim loader III next to what looks like an XG 2005 card (www.xgflash2.com) yet I don't remember Superman (forum name for the maker of these cards) ever mentioning this card or even another company using their design. Considering he constantly updates his site and owns the rights to this design, I think this is some kind of photoshopped picture to keep interest up while they don't have any real product yet.

I knew I saw that somewhere before. Seems like the photos are doctored. By why would someone go through all that trouble? Gah....

I just noticed the "free if you are a devver"

Thats odd...
Methinks its a fake for sure, but I hope its not, lol.

I sent them an email asking to get a copy as a devr, and I have gotten no responce. Apparently most of the people who have added neoflash links to their sites were added to the Neoflash site first (not vice-versa as you might assume)
