    I am happy with my DSTT too. Someone told me about it at work. I was a bit sceptical at first and didn't think it would work.

    I got mine for £34.98 with a 2GB micro SD including delivery, so I am happy with that. Considering how much each individual game costs.

    Plus, I like to take my DS on holiday with me, so it means I don't have to take loads of different cartridges with me. ;D

    still not being able to play trimmed/patched roms are where the problem lies in my opinion

    besides i heard edge is the best one out right now since cycloDS isn't really abundant where I'm from

    Cmon man, Patched Roms are like rarely used. In fact, 2/10 people whine about DSTT, they say that it freezes the system BLAH BLAH BLAH.. so far, my dstt is in good shape.

    XD only one game needs to be patched and that's JUMP! ULTIMATE STARS the best fighting game for the DS and trimming is a great way of saving space for more games :| I'm not really fond of putting in and deleting games

    What do you mean trimming? I don't know that, could you please tell me 'bout that?

    Some ROMs have unneeded redundant data, so you can trim them off, and games will still work fine. Some games can't be trimmed though, as you can't customize how much MB you want to trim.

    Really? how do I do that? Because there's only one file and that's the .nds file.

    there's xtrim here on romulation but i believe that you have to ask for it through email since its no longer hosted
    there's also the r4trimmer just look for it in google

    don't you notice that all roms have the same sizes and nothing more or less 8mb 16mb 32mb 64mb 128mb because that's how big the cart capacity is and when the game gets dumped the full size of the cart comes with it as well an example of good trimming is for nanostray 2 which comes at 32mb, when i trimmed it it went down to 19mb, but there are also games that are almost pointless to trim like jump 64mb-63mb XD but hey 1mb's 2 save files

    does DSTT support wifi? and what mem cards do you use?

    Yes it does support wifi with most games, and what do you mean mem cards? It uses MicroSD for storage, Kingston and Sandisk are the best brands.

    I love my DSTT and it's so convenient, aside from saving all that money on games. You don't have to carry lots of cartridges round with you.

    My memory card is a MicroSD 2GB, made by Sandisk.

    You can hardly tell people not to criticize something, they are entitled to thier own opinion aren't they? Who died and made you boss ?

    I've been wanting to get one of these carts but I'm not too sure which one I should go with, don't suggest DSTT to me just because you have one, I want to go with the one that works best, cost isn't really an issue, so which of the ones available would be the best option?

    I only know about the DSTT, perhaps someone could post a comparison on what's available.
