With the release of the Supercard DSTWO drawing nearer, the Supercard team have today decided to share some more information with us.

After months of testing and debugging the hardware is now fully finalised and production has begun, however the software is still in development but is expected to be completed soon. We've been given a few photos of what we can expect to see from the new Evolution OS GUI (as shown below), however please note that these are not representative of the final EOS menus. The team are extremely excited about the newly designed GUI and were praising its "excellent and practical layout" and new design elements.



The team were also able to tell us, that on top of the GBA emulation being finished, they plan to introduce a brand new feature with the DSTWO EOS (incompatible with DSONE) - a cheat engine called "DS Free Cheat". This new feature will allow anyone to instantly find and enable cheats and other modifications to games both old and new. For example, when no cheat files exist for a game that has recently been released, running "Free Cheat" mode during gameplay will allow you to search for and enable various cheats and hacks, such as modifying or even locking your characters health or enabling/restocking power-ups. You can search for cheats using 'Free Cheat' mode using two different techniques - standard and fuzzy (no, we have no idea what FUZZY means either).

We were unable to get any further information or examples of the new 'Free Cheat' system, but hope to be able to test it for ourselves and also supply more photos and hands-on information when we pick up our DSTWO sample some time this week, so stay tuned.

We anticipate the DSTWO to be launched around mid-late April, but as always, we will keep you informed with any news or updates.
