DSi Emulation?
Normally I am not one to make threads like this. However, a method to decrypt DSiware titles into .nds files has been released. Legally, the utility is in a bit of grey area copyright wise as it contains keys. But, the ROMs themselves are incredibly easy to extract once purchased from the DSi shop channel (NOT 3DS eShop, must be a DSi)
The .nds files are good, as SDAT's and the like can be ripped from them. Also this:
Apprently, the arm7i and arm9i binaries in these ROMs are actually decrypted and theoretically runnable.

Re: DSi Emulation?
That's 'swell, and I assume you get the keys off a DS you own, too. It's just as gray as dumping a game from any console anyway, though I agree the situation's a bit more complicated with encryption involved. Most tools for GTA IV, for example, take the keys from a (legally-purchased) copy of the game rather than integrate them to the tools for legal reasons.

No$ has been keeping in touch with me on details with his DSi reverse engineering efforts, and I'd like to try getting to it one day.. but it'd be good to first have enough documentation about the DSi-specific hardware.

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

Re: DSi Emulation?
DraStic does not support DSi emulation. DSi ROMs can be converted to a similar enough format to regular NDS such that the icon shows up, but that's about it.AlexisDS21 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 11, 2020 9:17 pmHey how yo do that? Where I find some tools and BIOS,I planning to emulate DSi on my tablet.
