This sounds like it’ll be able to run home brew apps. Like R4 for DS.

Not sure if running from the cart slot is permitted to even detect anything not properly signed by Nintendo. Which means this one is squarely for "backups" and nothing else.

That wouldn't be a product, though.
This must bypass protections, or it wouldn't offer any advantage over the existing microSD card slot.

It does have a specific niche: users of OLED models that just want to play "backups" and don't want to bother soldering chips to their products. A few people will like the hassle-free multicarts.

I was just looking at my R4 powered DS. Memories...
