How to put Music, Videos, and Pictures on to a Nintendo DS

Step 4Putting music and pictures on your ds

putting music and pictures on your ds
now, music is really easy compared to putting videos on your ds. all you have to do is choose the songs you want, and simply drag them into your R4 card. simple as can be.

for pictures, just do the same. save your picture as any picture file (.bmp, .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, etc.) and to my knowledge, they all SHOULD work. if they dont, just save it as another file type. .bmp works for sure.

now your ds can play videos, songs, and you can look at pictures, not to mention play lots of games on it! your ds is virtually the ultimate media player ever.

yes. u only need an adaptor card like acekard2 or R4. i own an acekard2, which is very good. i bought it for 30 US$ and it supports microSD up to 16GBytes. for SD or CF cards (they are too big for SLOT1 use) u need a SLOT2 adaptor and some passme/flashme/softboot in SLOT1, but i dont recommend that. ah and btw i'm making a SLOT2 adaptor for custom NDS/L extension cards. when its ready ill post an instructable.

i have a nintendo DSi now which can take sd cards without an adapter and can hold songs, games, photos, etc. on it. You an also get on the Internet with it free of charge if you have a wireless broadband connection and you can get on a place calles the 'DSi Shop' and buy games and a web browser. if you get on the DSi Shop before October 5, 2009, you get 1,000 free DSi points. If you trade in your DS lite towards the DSi you get $70 off the purchase!
