Whats the latest guidelines for playing "imported" games on a DS lite?
I just got my girlfriend one and apparently her friend has imported lots of games.

Just buy an EDGE card and a micro SD card copy your "pirated" roms onto it and you're away.

I use a DSTTi, but same idea.

These are dirt cheap and excellent

Edit: I wouldn't buy a MicroSD card from them though.

Can I suggest

Instead. $5 more but will work in a DSi too, worth it for the future proofing.

Incidentally that one claims "up to 4gb" but I'm using an 8gb Sandisk with no trouble whatsoever.

These look interesting. Are these for DS games, or just GBA games? Also, surely it's not free shipping from America?

The shipping is from Hong Kong - and yes, it is free and recorded

You'll need an extra Slot Two expansion pak if you want to play GBA games. The DSTT is often bundled with the Ewin GBA pak - I can vouch for the former but have no experience with the latter.
