The N-Card was created by a Chinese company, DSGBA, which specialises in manufacturing DS and GBA flashcards. These cards come in a number of different capacities, either 1GBit or up to 16GBit of storage, and often use either Samsung or Hynix NAND flash chips.

The card can be connected to a PC using the provided slot-2 adapter, so it can be used just like a USB flash drive, while also having the ability to flash a new UDisk if the card is booted to a recovery mode. A number of clones were made by different companies, varying in features and better game compatibility; the DS Fire Link, N-Card, and the DS Linker were the most common.

Kernels

All N-Card originals and clones use exactly the same hardware, so firmware from another card can be cross-flashed.
