    Works perfectly on my G6 DS Real, just been playing it for the last hour.

    Do you have the most recent M3 firmware?

    If the latest is 1.07 then yes, i downloaded in an attempt to get it to work. It seems odd, the last time this happened was witht the zelda demo, and changing to patched R4 firmware sorted it!

    Just tried it with my M3 (v1.07) and got the same message. Tried with both soft-reset on and off.

    Just done some research and it sounds liek you need to do something called an arm7 fix, where you basically delete the arm7 file from the game and replace it with one from a working game.

    Seems the easiest way to do it is using a program called DSLazy.

    Glad my G6 works fine with the game :p

    It needs microsoft .net framework to run, i guess your PC dosn't have it installed, i know there are other methods, but they're more invloved, you'll have to google them, or install the .net framework.

    just got this help from a friend on another forum not tried it as yet but others have and got it to work -

    First, extract the .nds file you downloaded. (Then, preferrably make a copy if the next few steps doesn't work)

    1. Get DSLazy here:

    http://releases.pocketheaven.com/tools/ds/dslazy.zip

    2. Get the Arm7.bin file here

    http://files-ds-scene.net/triforce/arm7.bin

    3. Extract DSLazy and start it. Browse and choose the correct .nds file.

    4. Click NDS Unpack, you will get a new folder, called NDS_UNPACK or something like it.

    5. Overwrite the arm7.bin in that folder with the one you downloaded.

    6. Click NDS Packer, when prompted, choose filename and where to save the new .nds, have patience, this might take a moment.

    7. Finished! Copy to your ds-cart.

    I quite like it actually, but it helps that I had low expectations to begin with (try the first Open warfare, that got a whole 10mins of play), I am a worms fan though, so like some of the new weapons, but nothing can beat Worms Armageddon on the PC with Fiddler :) You can make any weapon you want >:) (Banana bomb with 200 bananas capable of destroying the entire landscape was one of my favourtie creations, or maybe the hangun with a bullet powerful enough to kill any worm within a small distance of the shockwave, mwhahaha) i have the urge to reinstall armageddon now, :p

    Interesting. This is for the EUR version of the game right? I wonder if the USA version will have this issue as well. Can a patch get around this, or is it something you will always have to fix by replacing the arm7 file?

    Replacing the arm7 is a form of a patch, so there will be no actual patch for it.

    The Supercard teams latest update has fixed the issue and the game now works unmodified on their slot-2 devices (and i assume slot-1)

    The R4DS/M3DSS will probably follow-up soon with an update too.

    The G6DSR works perfctly with it already

    And according to my brother his Fire Card (n-card clone) works, but it takes two attempts (first time errors, everytime from then on it has worked)

    Not tested on my EZFlash V or M3CF.

    And yes, EUR version, the USA version will be the same, however if the R4 etc. are updated before it's release you wouldn't notice.

    Or use:
    Use arm7. It's a really old program.

    Put Worms in Patient folder

    For a donor card folder use: 0864 - Sim City DS (J).nds

    Just run fix.bat file. Takes about 20 seconds.

    I haven't played it to see how far you can save, but this should work as my game works using this.
