Hi all,I'm new in the community, and also im a fresh flashcard owner.
I have some questions about it ( Anyway i got G6 Real DS )1. Its 2GB.
Thats means, i can load 2GB ROM size games to it?
Becuz when i tried it, a 128-131 MB file was 1024 MB on my DS.2. How many place take the system files?
Becuz i dont want to leave even a single megabyte, i want to load that much games as i can >:D3. Pokemon Soul Silver / Heart Gold.
Which type of firmware should i use?
It works fine, no freeze but cant save.. thats very annyoning.Thx.!
And sorry for my english, havent got any english teacher on my school, all my english-knew is from videogames ;D

Hi there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you sure you don't mean 2Gb? I believe the G6 team measures their sizes in bits. Any size in megabits or gigabits is 8 times the same size in megabytes or gigabytes. That is to say, 8 gigabits is the same as 1 gigabyte and 1 gigabit is only 128 megabyte. If your flash cart is only 2 gigabits then that means it's 256 megabytes. The reason a 128 megabyte game comes out as 1024 is because it's 1024 megabits (half of your space).[/quote]

I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you're asking how big the system files are, I'm afraid you're more likely to know the answer to that.

No, it sounds like your card is only 256 megabytes (that is 2 gigabits or 2048 megabits). So you might be able to fit 2 128MB games or 4 64MB games. I'm not sure if you can without trimming the roms though.
