How to turn my Nintendo DS into an iPod?  While looking for a cool topic to write about today I came across this rather interesting hack.  I don’t personally own a Nintendo DS myself, but I do enjoy playing it when I visit my friends.  I know when I show them this hack they’ll think I’m a genius….to be honest I’m just trying to get out of buying them a gift for Christmas

Anyway, I digress, this is how to turn your Nintendo DS into an iPod:

NOTE: We’re  making the Nintendo DS function like an iPod not look like one.

1 – Firstly you need to get an R4DS cartridge.  If you don’t know what this is, you can find out more about what the R4DS cartridge is all about here.

2 – Secondly you need to set-up your R4DS cartridge.  Easy step by step instruction for doing this can be found here.

3 – Once your R4DS cartridge is set-up you simply need to add your files onto a MicroSD card, then place the MicroSD card into the R4DS cartridge.  Once this is done place the R4DS cartrige into your Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

4 – Turn on your DS or DS Lite and you will see some icons.  Choose the music icon and then select the song you’d like to play. Bingo – You’re done!
