    Hi all, first post.

    Quick background on my setup before my questions:
    I have a Nintendo DS lite, an itouch card, and a 4 gb micro sd card for the itouch - has been working great for running various roms.

    Q1: With this setup, can I run movies on my DS?

    Q2: Can I run GBA games?

    Q3: Can I get the DS browser to work (currently it is not)

    Thanks in advance, looking forward to hearing some feedback.

    I've heard that you can get GBA games to work but I haven't tried, I am in the process of buying a card. How is the iTouch? Do roms work flawlessly including the new ones?
    Is this what you have?

    1) Yes, but you'll have to convert them
    2) Not without a slot2 device like the M3 RAM expansion or the EZFlash
    3) Do you mean the DS opera web browser? If so then no, not without a slot2 device

    Ok I actually did a lot more digging and was able to get movies running. So that takes care of question 1, and as for question 2 & 3 - thanks penguin98 - i'll have to live without :)

    core2kid, I find they work amazingly, I do wish I could run GBA games however - no big deal. I really enjoy homebrew aps and playing games online

    Thanks for the info. Just ordered the iTouchDS.
    What memory cards do they use?

    I got a 4gb micro sd card from a local store.

    As for getting the movies to work, I finally got moonshell to work somehow altho it still seems buggy. Then I used batchdpg to convert my movies nito dpg and copy em over to my micro sd. moonshell can run dpg files.
