So if I only have a DS, how much would it cost me for all that is needed?

Nintendo DS Lite = $129.99
M3 Adapter = $24.99

I'm guessing you already have a (SD/Mini SD/Ect) memory stick.
If not, they run around $40-160 depending on the size of MB/GB.

How is it different.

I'm not so much interested in playing DS roms as I am old school emulators and maybe video clips.

Well, I actually want a DS for being a DS, but I plan on buying games.
But the emulation would be a great bonus.
I've thought about the GPX2 though....

I'm not quite sure on that.
But from what i've seen, the 'super card' may just be another name.
He still adds the SD stick ect.

Ahh I figured it would cost more than the original GBA adapter running around $30-70.
