Rumor: DSi hacked, world surprised it took so long {Joystiq}
Nov 5th 2008 9:18AM Check the thread on gbatemp about the video, somewhere among the first 5 or so pages there is a link and some quote about how tiff uses pointers within the file for it's data or something such. So I guess as long as you trust the file to be valid you'll get into troubles.
And libtiff has had multiple buffer overflows so if they use that instead of implementing their own I guess they will all be affected once someone find a bug.

Nov 3rd 2008 9:44PM Of course Nintendo can't FORCE you to download a firmware thru wifi. I doubt they would try but even if they did you could easily block access to the server in question in a packet filter and be done with it.

Nov 3rd 2008 9:43PM Unless there is some misstake letting people use any kind of a short cut what say it won't take long? Wanna try to get my private GPG-key from having my public one and a signed e-mail?

Nov 3rd 2008 9:36PM I doubt a flashcart firmware will fix it. Maybe hacked DSi firmware, new hardware or if they make any game executable from the SD-slot in some not very thought thru kind of way.
I wouldn't take anything for granted though (of course it can be done, but will it be done?)
A couple of days I read about some guy which himself thought it would be done in a week, I'm very confident he will be disappointed :D

Nov 3rd 2008 9:32PM A whole bunch of flashcarts has been tried before and neither worked. So well, I'm very sure no current card will work. Remains to see if that or loading from the SD-card will be fixed or not.

Nov 3rd 2008 9:31PM Maybe it's as simple as his Internet connection being crappier than yours / bigger webpage unless you have used the same / different ads.
Walking with the DSi {DS Fanboy}
Nov 3rd 2008 9:30PM Well, you are all somewhat correct. On the regular DS it's 33+66 MHz but as I understood it back then they did had different capabilities and I also was told that each one did things on its own screen. However later some guy said they had removed the Arm7 from the DSi and that the assign one of the chips for each screen part was wrong.
All this may also be wrong though :D, but in that case there are no Arm7 longer, only one Arm9 and the old Arm7-stuff runs with some translation on the Arm9 instead.
I guess we can't say whatever it's true or 33 or 66 MHz or anything yet, nothing prevents Nintendo allowing higher speeds for DSi titles I guess. Though not very likely.
DS Daily: The price is right? {DS Fanboy}
Oct 9th 2008 11:45AM The price is just fine but I won't pay for a replacement. If the system was new for me though.
DS Daily: Will you get it? {DS Fanboy}
Oct 6th 2008 5:49AM No, I won't get it, 0.25" bigger LCDs and I already have a flash cart so ..
If it had been a completely new system I would had been somewhat disappointed but if it was backwards compatible maybe I would had considered it.
DS Daily: Sad to see the GBA slot go? {DS Fanboy}
Oct 2nd 2008 10:49AM I really doubt they put more RAM for games in the DS, just flash-RAM for storage. Would be pretty retarded to give it more system RAM and make them incompatible, better beef up the CPU, graphics and resolution as well in that case.
