DS Flash Equipment > Firmware version differences?

#86643 - tepples - Thu Jun 08, 2006 2:45 pm

Is there a real difference among the DS official firmware versions 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, other than the anti-homebrew code in versions 4 and 5? I have a cousin who claims that the firmware v4 is "better" than v3 for running official games.

I find that my DS (I got it near launch, week or less after) is slower to boot and start games than my sister's pink DS (Which she got in April).

My brother recently brought a brand new DS and i've noticed that the system clock ticks louder. I brought mine when it just came out and you can hardly hear the ticks in the speaker.
