Will Games N Music (etc) work in DSi ?

Post by noiseredux »

Just curious. I've heard the DSi firmware will stop certain flashcards (or functions of), but I wondered about something like Games N Music since it's made by Datel and easily/legally available? Just a thought... I'd snatch up a DSi so fast if it played mp3's and at least some sort of video.

Yeah, but you need to convert yr files to an accepted format. They won't play as MP3, WMA, etc. However most types of AAC files will, play, formats like M4A, 3GP, etc. Good luck and let us know how it goes!

np. I'm still waiting to know if a GBC will play original GB games in color or B & W? I'm starting to give up hope of getting help on that one :|

Pretty sure that's right, but I haven't had a GBC in years.

That's right, you don't need a flash cart to play audio on a DSi. Just use a regular SD card. It plays AAC audio. MP3 support would be nice, but it works fine the way it is.
