Thus, there are some new codes need to be embeded in the r4 card’s chip. For some teams, it seems to be quite easy to break the code wall and get the DSi work, but the code being added maybe not to be completed to get the DSi console work perfectly. Of course, do not think that it can be done by anyone. If so, Nintendo does not need to do anything about the update.
