Without my realization six new homebrew games were released. Here is a list of them, a short description of each and a download or homepage link.

It always seems to be the french, hmm?

Awesome. Hey, do you know if DS roms work or could potentially work with a gba flash cart and a passme?

[Z80]

The games are either compiled to run from WiFi or PassMe or emulator I believe. The one I clicked a link on had all 3 of those.

[soccerboi]

yes Z80 is right. Passme's use a different version of the game than an emulator does, so you have to download a passme version of the games you want to play.

[gulliver]

Ok, so let me see if I got this right. With a regular flash cart and a passme, you can play passme versions of commercial DS games? Are they the same size as regular roms?

@ Z80 - Do you have a passme? And if you do, have you tried playing a commercial DS game with it? Or has anyone tried it? I don't mean demos either, I'm talking about full games.

Btw...Z80, check your PM's.

[Z80]

I don't own a PassMe currently, as currently I know of no cracked/hacked PassMe commercial game releases.

Supposedly Mario 64 DS has been dumped but hasn't been released to the public yet because there's no DS emulator as of now.

What would be the point of a DS emulator anyway? It seems stupid to me. It wouldn't be the same experience.

Btw...isn't the neoflash the same thing as a passme plus an ordinary flash cart? I just don't see what the difference is.

[soccerboi]

@ gulliver - that's exactly right. All that it is is a passme and a flash card hybrid. And there are 4 emulators for DS. iDeaS, HyperDS, DSEmu, and Dualis.

Mario 64 DS has been released to the public, along with Metroid Prime Hunters Demo. Just search Limewire for it.

Right now there is no way to play commercial games with a passme/flashcard, but NeoFlash can, and that just uses a software passme, so it's just a matter of time.

The point of a DS emulator? For developers. How many developers want to have to flash the game every time they want to test a small thing? This way, you don't even have to have a DS to develop for it.
