NDS file to BIN

#1 06 Jul 2006 @ 9:01
Ok i have a NDS file for new super mario brothers. How do i convert the NDS file to a BIN file so i can throw it on my ROM card? I never mess with the DS and this is my first time so be gentle K :)

What kind of card are you using? You shouldn't have to convert it to anything. Using whatever software is designed for your card should be enough.

Ok but when i put it on it doesnt boot. My DS logo locks. When i open the file on my CPU theres a NDS file and a SFV file. Do i need to add the SFV file? Also when i put it on the card it says something like this is a one time binary blah blah. Anyone know whats going on?

The file should probably be left as a .nds file.

The included .sfv file is so you can check the file downloaded correctly, no idea how you check it, but thats what it's for.

But unless you tell us what card your using we have no idea how to help.

WTF is that!

Reminds me of those NinjaDS units, but I didn't think they'd been released.

Sorry, but I have no idea how to use them, and therfore no idea how to make a .bin file that would be compatible with them.

Can I ask where you got it from?

Nintendo. Thats all i can tell you ha ha ha ha. I used this thing called DSlazy and there was a dummy file in the NDS and i removed it. Should that help?

I missed the picture when you posted it.

Based on how you're posting though, sounds like you've got your hands on a dev kit of some sort, which means pretty much no one here is going to be able to help you.

Most of us are only acquainted with consumer flash carts/adapters.

You really got my attention with those pictures, pllleeeaaassseee tell me more about that device, PLEASE!!!.

Anyhows, removing a dummy file shouldn't effect how a game would work either way.

It could be that the device is only compatible with the ARM9 processor of the DS, can't think why, but meh.

Try using DSlazy to extract the ARM9.bin file from your .nds file and try running that on it.


#10 06 Jul 2006 @ 12:14
Just the arm9 bin or the nds without the arm9.

Tinny Bubbles

Just the ARM9.bin

also, are you the same DomHo that supposedly has a Test Slim PS2 Dev Kit?

Well it ain't school, nor college only a few frineds of mine have DS's, and none of them have the slightest clue about homebrew.

I guess my biggest resource is google, I don't know something, I google it. I very rarely post on forums for help, but I very often find reading forums helpful.

Unfortunetly I don't know any sites in the USA that currently have the G6 Lite.

so does anyone know how to change the NDS file to a .BIN?

Tinny Bubbles
#19 07 Jul 2006 @ 1:26
If that ARM9.bin file didn't work 'fraid not. Try asking the person you got that device from.

#20 10 Jul 2006 @ 16:32
is it possible to say download a demo or a rom etc and send it to my DS via my wifi connection?
#21 10 Jul 2006 @ 20:34
Yeah, that's known as wifiMe. Quite troublesome to setup and only works with specific wireless cards and routers.

do i need a GBA flash cartridge or anything for that, it seems complicated, is there no simple way to do it? i was thinking along the lines of how the DS download play works?
#23 11 Jul 2006 @ 4:10
i have a thomson speedtouch 576 wireless router by the way, if that makes any difference.
#24 11 Jul 2006 @ 6:14
Ideally, it's all done on your PC and what's supposed to happen is that the PC sends the game to the DS (like DS download play). Meaning you wouldn't need a flash cart or PassMe to use it.

I never tried it since I didn't have compatible hardware, so I can't help you set it up. The easiest way to do it though is to just read that guide.
#25 14 Jul 2006 @ 3:33
I cant get that to work :( i just musnt be technically minded lol, I would appreciate if you could tell me if there is a prgram that does it all for you? or a easier way to do it.
