WTB/TF: SD multimedia device for GBA/DS

Post by **CronoTriggerfan** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 2:52 pm

I've seen plenty of web offers, but I'm just wondering if anyone has one here, since I like doing business on the forums. I'm looking for a multimedia device that uses SD cards for the GBA/DS, such as the GBA Movie Player SD, SuperCard SD, Play-Yan Micro, etc. I just need the bare minimum, plus the software if you have it. Nothing really fancy, seeing as I really don't have many homebrew ROMs to run on it. List your price. As far as trades, everything in my other post for the SD cards is up for grabs. Some of the highlights are:

SNES mobo
NES V1 (Maybe, someone is interested in it)
Genesis V1 and V2 plus games and controllers

Thanks,
CTFan

I do have an unopened Play-Yan Micro, but I couldn't accept less than $50, since that's what I paid for it. Plus I do plan to use it eventually.

Hmmm....I'll think about it. Play-Yan was my last choice because of the price tag, plus I like the format of the MP a lot better. I might, though. Also, would you accept trades to defray some of the costs if I buy? I've got tons of VG stuff.

Play-Yan whomps the crap out of the HK movie players though. I also have the CF movie player for GBA, and it sucks hardcore. I put the Last Samurai on it and it was like, really hell to watch on it (I even trimmed the widescreen to match the GBA's widescreen nicely). Sound reproduction = crap. Video reproduction looks like Sega CD but smaller. In short, blah.
The extra money is so worth it with Play-yan.

Yeah, the CF really does suck. But I've seen the SD version in action, and it really is very nice, because it's much newer. However, you may have changed my mind......damn, this is hard! But I thought the Play-Yan micro needed high speed SD cards, not just regular, to play it? Does it take standard SD or mini?

Regular SD. I've never tried it (it's still unopened) but it has the MediaStage software too (requires WinXP, and maybe only Japanese WinXP) :/

Well, I bought a SD GBAMP v2, they're supposed to be really nice. I've also heard good things about the M3 for DS use, although they cost more than the Play-Yan Micro! Thanks for the offer, though!

The M3 is really bad at homebrew, the firmware cause bad homebrew compatability. Good choice, though I would of got a SuperCard SD.

Thanks VB! I was actually gonna save up for an M3, but if they suck so bad, then I may just get a SuperCard SD instead. By the way, has anyone heard of the G6 Lite? It's a multimedia device specifically for the DS Lite, as in it fits in the cart slot perfectly and uses a touch screen menu. That was my other option, but so far they only have a 4GB version. I'll wait for an 8 or maybe even 16 before I get serious.
