Hi guys, just brought a brand new Ds lite plays new games ok...received super card and superkey plus micro card.... loaded NDS files on the micro card then put in the supercard and the superkey the DS sees the game files but when i hit the A button the game will not load... I get scrolling numbers as if the game is maybe loading and then a white screen....as i understand i dont need to do any re-flash..any ideas?
If I recall correctly, Supercard/Superkey needs pre-processed ROMs. You cannot run the "raw" ROMs. Have you processed your ROMs? Note that this is not "trimming", although the Superkey program gives you the option to trim.
Many thanks for your response....How can you tell if the ROM has been processed? Also I can not get any function/options from the superkey....I did format the micro card...I loaded NDS files about 8 from multiple sources its odd that none would work...
No, it's not. ROMs HAVE to be converted before they will run on the Supercard. AFAIK, no one distributes processed ROMs Go to www.supercard.cn and D/L the conversion program for the Slot 2 solution. Process your ROMs with this program and then they should work. After you get annoyed with doing this for every ROM you want to run you will probably consider a Slot 1 solution (ex. R4, CycloDS, etc.)
that was very clear....have now ordered a M4 slot one card, I should have done that from the start...my kid will be very happy many thanks for your help.
There's nothing wrong with the Supercard/Superkey solution. I still have one from the time when there WERE no slot 1 solutions. It works fine. It's just a little inconvenient to pre-process the ROMs but you can do them as a batch.
When your new R4 eventually breaks down you'll probabaly have to go back to the supercard. Im guessing it's a supercard lite or a supercard rumble lite. make sure you are using the proper conversion software for your particular type of card (there are about 5 different versions, & the correct one must be used) . I've had a supercard for 2 years now, & the bugger is STILL going strong. no use for a kids though, as they like to change their games every 5 minutes(as mine do).
