Does Luma not support the .3ds file format? I checked my go-to depository of T-En ROMs and that's what's inside all the Zips.

the newer cart formats use flash memory because it's way cheaper than the old mask ROMs at high capacities

all flash has the issue that it will eventually forget its contents if not powered for a long time

Yeah, I was told this when researching options for external PC SSDs. They said if it's not permanently attached, to plug it in once in a while.

Is this also true for NDS games? What about PS1/PS2/DC memory cards? Weren't those flash as well?
