Heres some more screens of what could be the most interesting DS Flash Cart to hit the scene ever, no details of release dates etc, but if it works perfect with the Micro SD memcard then gone are the need for a boot cart/flash cart.

Heres the new pics:

Exciting i think :)

this really is exciting. you put the memory card directly in the DS flash card, not in a GBA expansion...:)

There goes GBA ROM compatability I guess...oh well.
That's what my EFA Linker II is for. :)
I wonder how fast they will release the driver code for it so Chism can roll it up in the FATlib for homebrew compatability?

If you go to their site (http://www3.emu-zone.org/host/ediy/emu-hw/emuhw01.htm) (it's printed on the bottom of the label) they have more pics. they also show ones with red and blue backgrounds on the stickers, so i would imagine those to be other models, unless they just give you a color choice (which i doubt).

any word on if they have that reverse passthrough thing that was mentioned in the other thread? I'd love something like this but don't want to give up GBA

Edit: They have stuff about GBALink all over their site, though i can't find any pics of it. google's translator did an ok job, but its still kinda rough. i did fins a section for skins for the GBALink. hopefully its a software extension of the DSLink that allows it to play GBA games without emulation.

also very curious about what this does to battery life

Can't wait for more info

Edit 2: Spoke too soon. The GBALink is a flashcart that appears to be like a G6. Here's some pics (http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&langpair=zh-CN%7Cen&u=http://www3.emu-zone.org/host/ediy/emu-hw/sell/sell002.htm&prev=/language_tools)

Wow its looking nice, hopefully it will be affordable :rolleyes:, but even if it is i will still probably stick with an M3 so i can have GBA compatibility and more compatibility with homebrew

They seriously need to provide an English language version of that site :)

Maybe there could then be a ram expansion in the GBA slot. Think of the homebrew possibilities.

Nice to see a slot1 cart. But there's a downside it appears. The CPLD chip (i think) was to big to fit with a microSD. Result? This cart requires a flashme'd DS since it won't incorporate nopass/passme functionalities.

Let's break it down further. What's needed to flash your DS? Oh yeah, a GBA flashcart and a passme... How useful!

For now, slot2 carts are still more interesting IMO... But I'm sure it won't be long before we see a REAL full fledged slot1 cart.

My 2 cents

can't you flash your ds using wifime? and use this as your flashcart in the ds slot.
