where do i start

I have a TTDS card. I am new to this site, and have tried to download some games to put onto my card for the kids, but for some reason when I load the games onto the card they do not work on the console. the preloaded games I have are in file type .nds but the games on this site seem to be .rar and dont work on the console.can someone please explain in simple terms what I am doing wrong?any help appreciated

you need to extract the .nds files from inside the .rar archives. Download winrar from www.rarlabs.com and install it, then follow the winrar tutorial in our tutorials section.

many thanks for that Loonylion. have now managed to successfully extract the .nds files from the .rar files

7 zip does it all why bother with winrarIts a trail isn't it

winrar is simpler to use for the beginner.

i find it just as easy if not eaisier PLUS it comspresses a smaller file size

Winrar isn't a trial.

Winrar is free forever.
