DS Flash Equipment > info of PassKey2 and PassCard

#65399 - sonic13 - Mon Jan 02, 2006 9:49 pm

Here are some good infos from G6/M3 Staff.

Passkey2 will be out on 7 January in China (but i think you can buy it everywhere) and will have a GBA hardware to update it.

This GBA hardware (to insert in the GBA slot of the DS) has a bad shape, but you can update Passkey2 without a pc with it.

Yes, you still have to update PassKey2 to the original game you want to use it with, like the other Passme2/Superpass2.

Another good news is the creation of the PassCard2, that works with every DS and has the shape of an original DS game

There are some photos the PassKey2 and one of the PassCard on gbarl.it

adrian783 suggests that the PassCard is the innards of some cheap DS game soldered permanently to a PassMe2 circuit. Is this right?

Ahh.. use the GBA port to change the CPLD on the PassKey.. That's an interesting idea.. no wonder it doesn't need a computer.

Something similar to this idea has been used before in the Action Replay Duo. The AR Duo is a GBA cart with a Nintendo DS Game Card slot for manipulating savegame data.

With PassKey2, is it possible to update the list of supported Nintendo DS Game Cards once new games come out? I wonder...
