Nice, although I'd prefer an SD slot hack. Still, this basically removes my only qualm about the DSi, this way we won't have to worry about converting music to AAC and have all the awesome DS homebrew.

No slot 1 card will ever be able to play GBA games booted from slot 1, the GBA games will be sold through the Nintendo Store on the DSi.

BTW you are a f*cking retard.

What are you talking about? I play GBA games all the time from my slot 1 card. You just need a GBA emulator on your card and some GBA roms.

Actually, because the DSi is more powerful, and considering you can download them, they may be able to make an emulator on the DSi that can play GBA games :P

Long story short, if Nintendo can do it, the homebrew community can do it too :P

Doesn't the DSi recieve firmware updates? Whose to say that the first update for DSi, after Acekard 2i is released, won't just stop flashcards once again?

Yes, but Acekard also have firmware updates that could bypass Nintendo's later on fix. Well, it has a flashable chip in AK 2i unlike AK 2. So hopefully that would work.
