Needing help on getting ROMs working on regular DSi - Quirby64 - 06-06-2014
I finally decided to try it, and there's problems already.
I downloaded Moonshell to "convert" the ROMs to work on the DSi, but the files of it (Moonshell) I get don't work.
Also on my list of problems is that I'm trying to open the Homebrew channel via DSi Sound (like videos say), but it "couldn't find compatible files".
And, I'm trying to do this without buying a R4 card, because I'm seeing numerous videos around the internet saying you can. >.<
So..I know this is a lot but if you guys can give me some tips on getting this to work, that'd be great.

We're not really here to help people pirate games. I mean people can link to ROMs and Emulators and talk about them, but if you really want the games, Please buy them and support the people who made them.

Actually, people definitely can not link to ROMs. Emulators are fine as there's nothing intrinsically illegal about them, but discussion about obtaining ROMs, and especially links to them, are explicitly forbidden.

Don't post any porn or illegal material. You are allowed to link to rom sites, but we are in no way related to these websites nor do we condone the use of them.
- 4.1: This applies to all tSR forums.
tSR has a lot of places you can personalize, such as avatars, signatures, reputations, biography and others. Do not forget that THEY ARE PART OF tSR so if any offensive material is found in any of those places, the person responsible for it will be punished.
This says otherwise. I remember there being a debate about this and it ended up with "We aren't hosting them on our site, we are not saying you should use them, but you may link to them" was what ended up being the final ruling and thus was changed in the rules. It was a few years back when this happened.

A remnant of times past. Those rules need to be amended. There's just too much risk involved in facilitating the acquisition of illegal goods, no matter how you try to cover yourself in the process.

I'm reopening this thread.
After some discussion, it's okay to ask about how to get roms to run.

I I looked around and all I'm finding is that this isn't possible, and that any videos showing that it is are just hoaxes. I admit that all I can find are old threads with people saying that it isn't possible "yet", but if it was possible it probably would have been figured out by now, and I can't find anything saying so.
So yeah, I'm pretty sure this isn't possible and you'll just have to buy a flash cart. However if you really are determined to make sure whether it's possible or not you could ask on GBATemp, the people there would know better than anyone.

After a little time on the chat, and some time browsing the DS forums, it's true that you can't JUST use a SD Card.
