Hi FST peeps :)
As per the title .... my kids got DS's as crimbo gifts and just wanted to ask for oppinions and specifics on both good sites for downloading and methods of using downloaded DS files?
Thanks for reviews opinions or tips in advance guys n girls
:D
I'm not into this stuff, but nTorrents seems to be a good Nintendo tracker. I gave my account away yesterday, but if you make a request you'll probably get an invite.
i used to work for a ds developer. get an r4 cartridge. they are relatively cheap and you can store a ton of games on there. you basically download whatever roms you want and then transfer to the cart via usb. you can also play mp3 or other formats but im not sure why you would want to play mp3 on a ds.

also bitgamer has alot of ds roms. pm me if you are interested in joining
I think the best card to get is the CycloDS. It's certainly pricier than the other cards, but well worth it I think. Hasn't failed me yet.
I agree with Respawn. I have several flashcarts(slot 1 and slot 2) and the CycloDS is my most used. With the Supercard DSOne being my second most used(for slot 1's).
Either one of these would be your best simply because both have great teams behind them supporting them, and many features. So they get frequent firmware updates. The Supercard Team is working on a whole new firmware for their slot 1 cart and should be released anytime now. So you may want to wait until that gets released to see how good it is before purchasing any.
But nevertheless, you can't go wrong with either of them. If you're in the US you can buy them from RealHotStuff. I've been using them for about four years now, and have never had one mishap. They are some of the nicest guys.
As for downloading DS games, I wouldn't bother with torrent trackers. DS games are so small that it's just not needed(unless you want packs of DS games). The two sites I use, pretty exclusively, for DS games(and GBA, SNES, NES, Genesis, etc games) are:
Emuparadise
Romulation
Thanks for the pointers guys, I'm uk based but plenty of pointers for me to be getting on with :)
Merry Crimbo to all :fst:
I've used 2 sites in the past and found both to be cheap and reliable

If your kids have got DSi's then the normal flash carts won't work with them. You'll need something like the R4i.
Not Dsi just the Ds so just an R4 should do the job
