Ladies and gentlemen I bring you ... DSi mode homebrew

This isn't quite what you all want just yet, there's no SD access but it is a means for the average homebrewer to get code running in DSi mode. There's still a bit of work to do on the libnds side - we currently have no touch screen or audio working but it will come.

this is fantastic!

when you say "SD access" do you mean the DSi SD slot or do you mean slot1 disk access? I got the dslink to download and launch my nds file but it is not able to read from my slot1 card which I switched in after dslink connected to my access point. I did dldi patch my nds file so I do not think that is the issue.

You can't hotswap game cards on a DSi, well, obviously the firmware deals with it but right now we can't do it with homebrew

great! :)

so you mean there will be libnds functions to detect if the program is running on a DSi and functions to 'switch' between DS/DSi modes?
