Wow very nice. Really surprised that cave did this on that hardware.
The screws used to seal up this cart are wood screws. Nobody is going to waste good wood screws on a bootleg, they'd just use cheap electronic screws instead.

Hah, I don't even have a desk, I just have a pile of **** where the desk should be. I've not put the desk in there yet simply because I've not got around to moving (or can't be bothered to move, I guess would be more accurate) the pile of stuff. :awe:

I just threw up in my mouth a bit.

Glad this thread has a happy ending, true wizardry AndyG.

And even though the hardware is ****, the game isn't actually as bad as everyone thinks. Enjoy it Pangster. :thumbup:

The 3D in this game looks worse every time I see it.

SP, others might want to buy a DSII kit. Can you make a flowchart or something, outlining how to acquire this one? :palm:

Learnt a new thing with TypeX/X+/X2, you don't need a COM based mainboard, you can use a USB one and keep everything intact.. :think:
