    Hi,
    well I'm buying a DS soon, i know about downloading games and putting them into a mircoSD etc etc, but can you store as many games as you want on the SD? untll the memory runs out? or can i only install one game? :S

    and also, how do you even fit a SD card into the DS, isn't it too small?

    thanks everyone!
    :)

    you need a flash cart (see wiki info)for the microSD to fit inside.
    the number of games can be put onto microSD depends on its capacity, a 2GB can store about 30 games, (depends on game size of course)

    to play downloaded games, do you need to chip your ds etc?

    sorry i thought my replied above is quite clear.

    to answer your question, no you dont need to chip the ds console, all you need is a flash cart and a micro sd memory card.

    is it true that nintendo can lock your ds if you play illegal copies of games?

    and when with the microSD, do i need to install anything on it before dragging nds. files into it?

    never heard of that before. where did you read that?

    "and when with the microSD, do i need to install anything on it before dragging nds. files into it?"

    yes, you need to install system files for that particular flash cart.

    each flash cart type have its own system files. goto their website for downloads.

    Basically Your Need a Flash Cart Wich looks like a ds game but has a slot to place a micro sd

    http://www.m3adapter.com/SLOT-1_Series_M3DS-R.htm
    heres a pictire of a cart

    theres alot of different brands but basically m3 real
    r4 and m3simply are what people get from what i have seen i own a m3 real and im really happy with it the

    only problem i get is that the m3 real doesnt have the connector slides like a regular ds game wich line it up in the ds so sometimes ill experience freezing or not loading when i turn on the ds but if your a patient person and dont mine taking it out and pushing the cart back in then it doesnt matter

    nintendo cant freeze your ds for playing backed up roms/downloaded roms

    the amount of games/music/videos you can put on you micro sd depends on the size of the micro & sometimes the card i find that when i use my m3 real i can fit 50 games onto it without alot of load time this is using the normal 2.7 system files from the m3 real website.(i tried some new system files that were released in japenese but were hacked into english and i can now fit more games on it.)

    but that all depends on the card you get

    im using a 4gb SanDisk Micro Sd

    for a card i suggest the m3 real but you can read around the forum and look for other suggestion. do some research =D
    you should check out the m3 real guide wich is sticked in this forum
