    You need specialized equipment to back up DS games. I dont think you can buy it anywhere but even if you could it would be very expensive. Its simple and cheap to download the games, so thats what is generally done.

    Oh wow. Ok I admit I was way off there. I looked into dumping my own games back when I first got a DS several years ago and could find no way to do it. Thats obviously changed but I'd never looked it up again.

    I was right though that just downloading the game is far easier though. Quicker as well if the dump times listed in that guide are accurate.
