Hiya! It’s shadowhunter!!! I have not written a blog in a long time, and after reading DeltaBurnt’s blog, I had a similar question of my own. Even though this is an obvious answer to some, to folk like me, it seems a bit more annoying to comprehend. The question is, why is piracy so bad? Read the rest of this entry »

Hello guys, this is shadowhunter93. This is my first review in the big leagues of flash cart reviewing… Kinda nerve racking. This whole review talk is boring me, so let’s plunge into the review. This EZ Flash Vi was provided to me by one PharaohsVizier, my new best friend round the online world these days. It came in the mail yesterday and I’ve been tinkering with it ever since then. I think now I’ve got a good handle on this cart, so let’s get on with the review! Read the rest of this entry »

For those of you that may be unaware, the AKAIO 1.5 version was JUST RELEASED moments ago! The firmware believed to be speculation has lifted off at last! Well, this information is straight from GBAtemp, and Normatt, the AKAIO programmer, teamed up with some Yellow Wood Goblin dude and released the binary files. Now, ladies and gentlemen, please note that if you want to update loaders in the future, you MUST UPDATE TO 1.5. I repeat, you must UPDATE to 1.5! This version is quite fantastic, because it features fixes for 100+ NDS games, anti-piracy destroyer thing, a POR fix (what the bloody hell is that?) and WII CONNECTIVITY. I really am pleased and kinda laughing right now. Please download at GBATemp.net and discuss here or there.
Here is the official changelog from GBATemp:
+ Fixed issue with the hiddenFileNames globalsettings option not accepting non lowercase filenames.
+ Optimizations to the AK2 dldi should be a little quicker now.
+ Update Dutch translation (Thanks MarioWaza).
+ Update Spanish translation (Thanks Pendor).
+ AK2/AK2i clones are now officially unsupported.
+ Gba icon has been removed from main selection screen on DSi.
+ Removed outdated plugin system.
+ Per rom GBA frame support (256×192x15bpp)
- Place BMP with internal game id of gba rom in __aio/frames.
+ Added support for save sizes up to 256Mbit (32Megabyte).
+ .sav is now default save extension.
+ Reverse Alphabetical List sorting (set sortListAlpha=0 in globalsettings.ini).
+ Auto-Anti-Piracy Patcher updated.
+ ARGV support for homebrew.
+ New DSi detection (Shouldn’t show slot2 icon after softreset on ak2i now).
+ Disable start menu by adding “LockStartMenu = 1″ to your globalsettings.ini
+ Fixed Trainer Toolkit support.
Please refer to LoaderChangelog.txt for compatibility fix!

Hello guys, I’m shadowhunter, and I’m doing my very first official review of a Nintendo DSi accessory. Before I even get started with anything, I would like to send a thank you to BambooGaming/TopGamingGears for providing me with this sample. Also, I want to give an even bigger thank you to PharaohsVizier, for taking time out of his day to request this sample. He’s been kind enough to send me small updates regarding my grip’s shipment. Well, let’s get on with the review!

It’s been a while since I last wrote something on the blog, so here I go. I was interested in writing about some of the upcoming releases for the PSP. I know that this site is called DSDatabase, but I just had to inform some folks in case they had a PSP. I was quite interested in some of the releases for the next few weeks. I was quite interested in the release of Warriors Orochi 2, which also was released for XBox 360, Playstation 3, and Playstation 2. It was released last year in Japan for the PSP. However, sadly, the Warriors Orochi release for the United States, scheduled for release yesterday, August 28, came included with PSP Official firmware 5.55 OH NO! I can’t play this game now !
Looks like a lot of games are coming with this new firmware 5.55, including Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny, which was released in Japan a few days back. The US version is scheduled for release on 9/01…And now, for more releases to come… Read the rest of this entry »

*yawn* Hello guys, thanks for joining me on another Fun to Read blog thing. I’m sorry for my absence. I was busy with trying to earn good scores on my last practice SAT because my parents offered me the chance to get a PSP. Yay… so, of course, I worked my ass off and I scored much better than the past few weeks. So, after a few days of friggin intense shopping via Amazon and Ebay, I bought a PSP Slim on ebay, but I don’t know if it is hackable. I have everything on my computer ready, I have the ISOs, the emulators, the GBA games, the programs, ChickHEN, DdC, and whatnot. Now I need to wait a few days to get my PSP from USPS and my Pandora Battery. ‘Tis a shame DX shipping failed so horribly. I ordered from them, waited 5 days, and the product did not ship out! So, I cancelled, and bought off Amazon. Three days later, I get my memory card. That was yesterday. LOL it came really quick. I was most pleased. Anyways enough with that… Read the rest of this entry »

Hi guys, its shadowhunter. I’m really sorry about my lack of blog postings and fun articles. I’ve been really tired out and I’ve got my final SAT examination on Friday. This test will make or break the rest of my summer. If I score well enough on this test, my parents will let me get a PSP!
I’ve got the memory card shipping out via DealExtreme and I’m quite tired cuz PSP ISO files are friggin HUGE!
Anyways, I’ll get back to blogging next week, I’m really exhausted with SATs and such. Please wish me luck, because IF i get my PSP, i’ll be sure to play with you guys online.
Until next time!

Evening, and thanks for joining me and reading yet another Fun To Read Blog article! This is currently my ninth article of FTR, so I’ve come a long way so far! Anyways, news has been terribly lacking! This kinda sucks on my end because I gathered random things out there on the news for blogging entertainment. The news these days is so droll, not including the typhoon Morakot that struck China and forced one million people to flee the 111 mile per hour hellstorm. I give my condolences to the many people whom were injured or killed and pray that they live and can return to their home. But screw that! Let’s be more cheery! Since there have been no MAJOR news items, I have decided to release a new branch of my Fun to Read blogs, called News Flash! This is to talk about video game news and other eye popping articles! And for those whom eagerly awaited yesterday’s blogs and could not find any, I’m sad to say I was busy and no blog was posted. However, I’m proud to launch Fun To Read Blogs Article 9 and News Flash 1: Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver News!

Welcome to the very short edition of Fun to Read blogs, edition 8. Well, I’m gonna be really busy this weekend, going to some outlets to shop. So, there’s a good chance I might not blog tomorrow.
Sorry. Not my fault. Anyways, enjoy your stay here and have some fun.
And about the Jump Ultimate Stars tournament! Please look at jincongz’s new topic/poll regarding the Big 3 and submit your opinion. Your thoughts may change the course of history! :bounce: Also, tournament sign ups end one week from today, August 14! Be sure to submit your teams, and good luck.
Now, I understand that there are some users whom are aiming to become DSDatabase moderators. Me and PharaohsVizier are looking for QUALITY posts over QUANTITY. So just post MEANINGFUL posts that are not useless and you should do fine. I sound like a hypocrite but I make it up by doing these blogs. We’ll only promote you if you can help this site along with meaningful and helpful ones.
Thanks for reading, enjoy. Until next time, stay tuned!

Yahoo! I love my life right now, sort of. Take out the SAT school part and I’ll be OK. Well, anyways, welcome to the seventh article of Fun To Read Blogs! This one is called, “The Best Week of My LIFE!” I’m in a godawfully good mood. This is kinda funny, considering I had a really irritating session of SAT prep today and tomorrow I actually take the practice test ugggh. Why am I so happy? My new buddy PharaohsVizier showed me and all of you guys a dirt cheap place to buy some gaming stuff! I pretty much wanted to dance all over my house. And on top of that, I bought an intellectual puzzle box. I’ll be sure to blog about that. I might also get a PSP and put custom firmware on it. YAY! That sounds like so much fun!
:) Well anyways, I got promoted again. Once again, thanks to PharaohsVizier for making that possible and for his continued faith and support for my lollerific blogs. I’m no longer the standard moderator. I’m a GLOBAL moderator, which means my name appears in some sexy green text on the forum pages! YAY! I LOVE GREEN text! Like seriously why the hell am I so happy? Oh yeah, my SAT class ends next FRIDAY! 8 more days of suffering and hell! Read the rest of this entry »
