Yeah duh I mean look 2001 Wow there stealing GBA roms lets leave them alone. 2009 Great Scott there stealing our ds games oh no instead of us following this great idea lets sue them and make them hate us so we get more money. Come on it's homebrew we use it for and the roms I've down loaded I have owned a legal copy of can't they leave home brewers alone maybe we should sue them for something?

With a flashcard/mod you can make total use of the console/portable you purchased. Without a flashcard/mod you can do only what they want you to do.

What you 2 guys above me have to say is true. I used to think flash carts were only for piracy, and though much along the lines of this guy. However after borrowing a friend's for a few weeks I realised that homebrew on DS is really great, and after placing the order for my flash cart I am thinking of getting a PSP.

That being said, it's still obvious that these carts (with very few exceptions) are designed for piracy. I mean a passme and GBA cart works better than a Slot-1 cart for homebrew, but is hit-and-miss when it comes to piracy. Which method is the most widely used? I really hope that the developers will put homebrew support in their consoles so you don't have to modify them, and I have a sneaking suspicion that the PSP2 will. If it does then I will insta-buy!
