In the last few months we have noticed a lot of emails and phone calls from customers asking what DS card to buy for the new DSI XL console.  We have (by looking through server logs) noticed customers searching for DSi XL flashcards on our site, and why not we! after all we are UK DS card experts. 

As far as we know all DSi flashcards have been tested and found working on the Japanese version of the DSi XL which at the moment runs on version 1.4 firmware. So this should make the DSi cards from our UK store compatible with the UK/EU DSi XL when it is released in March.

However we do suggest you purchase a DS card that can have its firmware upgraded, so if Nintendo release new firmware you have a fighting chance to keep using your DS card.

News hot off the press.

As I’m sure some of you have noticed we no longer list the EDGE DS cards on our website, We were informed a while ago that the EDGE card was being discontinued. Stock ran out within days of this news but every cloud has a silver lining. Expect a new card from the Edge team this time for the new DSi console.

The EDGE DS was without a doubt the one of most reliable DS card we ever sold, great packaging and software updates what more could we want?

We hope to have the new DSi Edge card in stock within a month. We will keep you  updated you the moment they arrive through the door.

The new iPlayer – A media player for the DS, DSLite and DSi which plays media files directly without having to convert them first.

Because of its hardware limitations, the Nintendo DS has never really been a great platform for watching videos. But the new iPlayer could change that. Like with all the other flashcarts available for the DS the iPlayer is able to load “homebrew software” though the makers claim it will NOT be able to load backup ROMs.

What it will be able to do though is natively play video files without having to convert them to a DS-friendly format first, thanks to a built-in decoding chip. So you’ll be able to load AVI, RMVB, RM, FLV, ASF, MPG, MOV, WMV, DivX, or XviD video files onto a microSD card and play them natively off your DS.

If out of stock please call and pre order as the number of enquiries we have about this product means we won’t have stock for long as they go so quick.
