Drain on your wallet? Nonsense! Buy an R4 ($15-$20 if you look in the right places), a 2GB microSD card ($10), and download ROMS to pirate the games!

:mellowface:






No, I kid. Although that IS a great way to preview games to see if you want to buy them... if you have the self-control to still buy them if you enjoy them. And it makes it easier for me to NOT have to worry about misplacing my cartridges (like the copy of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass my in-laws bought me for Christmas '07 and I promptly lost =| Thanks to my R4, I still got to play it ^_^).

I do NOT recommend using it to avoid buying games, and I despise those that use it for that. Every game I've pirated on mine, I've either bought or begun work on buying (Meteos, here's looking at YOU).

I use my M3-Simply for import games. If they don't make it possible by regular price, then ther is no legal way for me to buy it, so I just don't care at that point. Also, I do get sick of carrrying cartridges around, so I do use it as an actual backup... Also, I use it to hack games for fun ^_^. In addition, I use it to make 2 cartridges of a game so I can play multi-player without having to buy the game twice... Lastly, the one guilty thing I will admit to is downloading the yearly update of madden, or a game that has been ported over far too many times for me to feel bad about it (ex: Tetris) Tools that should have come with the DS (ex: Internet Browser)
