    You cannot backup your own games with an R4DS/M3DSS, you either need to buy a slot-2 card that can backup games (such as the M3CF), or simply download them from sites such as http://ds.rom-news.org/

    If you want your save files I think you can use a program called savsender to send them over wifi to your computer, however I have not used it.

    actually with rudolph's new tool its now possible to dump carts using the R4/M3SS or theoretically any slot 1 device that supports DLDI

    the backup tool works over wifi, and sends the file over ftp. you can run the file from any slot 1 or slot 2 device that supports DLDI. I think there are separate versions for slot 1 and slot 2 devices.
