Does anyone know the speed of the NDS roms and what they're running at with the latest M3 Adapter?

I heard that GBA speed and compatability is at 100% but it seems scarce to find info on the speed of NDS roms with the M3.


P.S. running on NDS Lite.

I read that the movies can suffer slowdown but not the gameplay on ds roms.

NDS roms run perfectly, a very small selection of games (such as the castlevania video) need a fast SD/CF card to work flawlessly as they are played directly from the CF/SD card.
But any game that fits enitrly into the M3's SRAM will work perfectly.

The same is for movies, if you have a fast SD/CF card then movies are flawless.

Out of curiosity.. when you guys say "fast" SD cards -- what do you guys define as fast? Of course, theres 133x - 150x+ cards out there.. I guess a better question would be: what SD card speed is considered the middle point between fast and slow?

well I'm expecting to get a m3 Mini sd adapter. so with that type of adapter and card I should get 100 speed and compatability with GBA and NDS roms on a DS lite right?

A 60x card is usually fast enough, though getting a faster one wouldn't hurt.

Anything on that list that scores a 5 on the "castlevania test" is fast enough.
