Flashing vs the Passkey

[demondude777]

I am using the Passkey 1, and what I hear is it is easier to brick my DS that way. Is that true? And would it only get bricked from bad homebrew? I only get my games from this site or from ds.qj.net. (Sometimes I drop the wrong file on and the M3 card loads it but freezes before the game starts...if that has a chance of messing it up)

I don't really want to go through the hassle of flashing the DS if there isn't going to be an issue....but if there is a chance that I could brick it by just putting the wrong d/l file on it, then I will.

Any help, links, or anything would be appriciated....

Don't worry, most chances are you wont get it bricked, and no putting the wrong file on there (such as a supercard file on an M3) wont brick it, but if it DOES get bricked, it will brick your entire DS, to my understanding, making it completly useless

Thank you....weird thing is that the sc.nds zelda demo works on my m3...but the non-sc one doesn't
