lol several of the comments visitors enter are just absurd, alot of times i wonder if they really read the content and content before writing a comment or whether they only just read the title of the post and generate the first thought that drifts into their heads. at any rate, it really is useful to read intelligent commentary occasionally as opposed to the same exact, classic oppinion vomit that i regularly see on the internet i’m off to take up a few hands of zynga poker hasta la vista
yeah, you are right, and thanks for you comment!
i would not have thought this had been outstanding a number of years back yet it is crazy precisely how years evolves the manner by which you respond to numerous concepts, thank you with regard to the piece of writing it happens to be relaxing to browse through anything sensible occasionally in lieu of the widely seen garbage mascarading as a blog on the net, i’m off to take up a smattering of rounds of zynga poker, adios for now
Yeah,it’s our pleasure to do this.And each boday has the opinon of themselves.

Hey everyone. I don`t know where else to ask. I bought a nintendo ds lite last 2 months I think but I just couldn`t get it to start. I tried to change the battery but I know the battery is not the problem since the light was on. Probably there is disconnected wire in the cover hinge? I`m not sure if any of you guys has been experiencing the same problem and found a solution for it. Maybe there is someone expert i.e console technician who knows how to solve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated
WI-FI thingo gave me fake card message, but i dont know if it was talking about my sd or r4i, as i have already verified my sd as genuine through kingston, so i suppose it means my R4i-GOLD is a dud, has anyone else had this and is it reliable, or is it because i tried to use the wi-fi thingo with an R4i and not the other card it is for.
I bought one of these since the original didn’t work on the DSi and it wasn’t really what I expected. I do love the option to backup saves and restore them later, however, the cheats that I used on my original Action Replay don’t work on this one…So unless I can find a fix then I’ll have to go back to the original.
