What's new?

  • Word Searcher (USA) (Music is now streamed instead of being pre-loaded)
• B4DS: Added support for these DSiWare titles on DS & DS Lite, bringing the amount of supported titles to 501!
  • Neko Reversi
    • Previously only booted on debug DS consoles.
    • Audio is disabled due to memory limitations (but will still play on debug consoles).
    • Does not save.

• B4DS: The full version of Digidrive now runs on DS & DS Lite!
  • Due to memory limitations, audio will not play.
  • For sound effects to play, you'll need to insert the Memory Expansion Pak.
• B4DS: Yummy Yummy Cooking Jam now plays music if a 16MB+ RAM expansion cart is inserted. This means the regular Memory Expansion Pak will not work.

• DSi/3DS: Added banner.sav redirection for the few DSiWare titles which support it (ex. Brain Age Express). This means any nds-bootstrap frontend which support banner.sav (such as TWLMenu++) will now report how far you progressed and/or how well you did in those games!

• B4DS: Fixed crashing in Saikyou Ginsei Shougi.
• B4DS: Fixed touch screen flashing black when touching a button in Sudoku Challenge!
