Parts List
The following list of items is what is required to change your Nintendo DS or DS Lite into a multi-purpose appliance:
- A Nintendo DS or DS Lite. If you have a DSi, you cannot run Game Boy Advance games, as there is no Slot-2 in the DSi
- ROM Backup card (We like the AceKard)
- A Game Boy Advance backup Card (unless you have a Nintendo DSi)
- SD Micro Memory Card (get the 16G one, trust us. If not, be cheap and get the 4g. You’ll be sorry!)
- SD Card Reader (for your PC)
- A PC with a USB port.
- The various Emulator and application files.
- Legally obtained ROMs
Additionally, you may need a wireless router and a PC running FTP server, but we digress. The cost of the backup cards and ram should set you back $100 to $120, depending on the supply and demand at the time.
