NOTES:

Misc

  • Some homebrew only works with FlashMe and will not work with PassKey, therefore be sure to note which you used.
  • SD and MiniSD versions of the M3 may be unable to read or write to the flash card from homebrew applications.
  • Try to list only 1 version (the latest) for each CF and SD versions of the M3.
  • Only list multiple versions if newer/current ones don't work, or if you find it necessary
  • Most homebrew works on M3 (especially M3CF). The list of non working homebrew would be much shorter.

  • DSBoy - Game Boy & Gameboy Color emulator for the DS - http://ethos.oddigytitanium.com/

    • Tested with M3 SD Slim (renamed .nds.gba to .nds) with Pokemon Blue, Red, Yellow, Gold, and Crystal
      • Tested with M3 Simple, WORKS but with distorted images not playable.


  • ScummVM DS - ScummVM interpreter/emulator for the DS - http://scummvm.drunkencoders.com/
    • v0.61 WORKS (Save games now work) SD version works using M3 Game Manager + a modified .ini file with the line "forcesramsave=true". Only works with games that you "bundle" with ScummVM in the SD version, limiting compatiblity to small games only. Cannot read games from flash card in the SD version.
    • v0.9.1 Sometimes WORKS with v30c firmware, versions A & B (C not tested) *do* work... about 1 in 20 times. Set it up as described in the readme.. its very unreliable loading, but when it does load, it works fine. Just keep reloading it until it works. Has trouble "Finding the flash card", but when it does, works well. "Finding the flash card" means using fat.. and there is no size limit... talkie versions work.
    • v0.9.1a(beta2) DLDI version : WORKS with the alternate DLDI patch from agentq (see link in the readme). The problem of unrecognized flash cards seem to have disapeared.
    • v0.10.0a DLDI version : WORKS with the alternate DLDI patch from agentq (see link in the readme).
