What kind of cart can this be put on? Can anyone here do this for me?

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this can be placed on a cart or not but that would be sweet. Something tells me this is emulator only? I just hate playing emulators. Any chance this can be playing on a full-sized system? I'd settle for the handheld I guess by using an r4 card.

Since it's a patch to a commercial game that's still in print, I think the answer to this question probably falls outside the purview of this forum (since you'd have to either copy your original cart or find a pirated copy in order to patch it).

 

But legitimate homebrew works fine on flash carts. To get them on a big screen you'd need either a PC-based emulator or a DS development system. I used to use the M3 Simply and DS One back when I did DS coding. (I prefer platforms whose creators don't actively work to exclude me these days.)

Homebrew (as defined in this section) are games created by hobbyists whereas hacks are modifications of existing games - usually made by big name companies with big name lawyers. I'm assuming that this is a NDS game hack? Why not just back up your legitimate copy of the original game, patch it with the hack, then play it on your flash cart?

Even backing up an original, legitimate DS game is illegal in the US thanks to the DMCA, unfortunately, which is why I didn't suggest that approach. (Nintendo has argued that even running your own code on a DS with a flash cart violates the DMCA, but with courts legitimizing jailbreaking of phones, I think they're out of luck.) It doesn't outlaw copying, it outlaws merely accessing something "protected".

 

We've obviously crossed that line in the past here on AtariAge with no problems, with all the discussions about how to circumvent the Atari 7800's crypto, but Nintendo's still trying to sell the DS.

 

It looks like a sweet hack, though, and I look forward to dusting off the old DS, NSMB and my DS One and trying it out.
