Downloading Nintendo Games

Well I've been naughty and ordered an R4 card. I'm using Mininova to download games - is it normal for t to be so slow and to stop and start. The upspeed for 2 of them is now 0b/s and its ground to a halt. 3 others haven't even started yet and it says they're queued. Do you have to wait for "seeders" to be online before it can work?

Also I see mininova have a catagory for Wii games, so how would I get a Wii game onto my Wii. Is there a similar card to an R4 but a different size?

The one I use is really really easy. Is your R4 card drag and drop?

Just go onto nds-roms dot com. Download the file and it will pop up in a window. Drag the file into your R4 files and that's it all done.

Once it's in the ds it will prompt you to create a sav file.

The only pain is to work it you have to turn off your pop up blocker as they pay for the site using adverts and you get a lot of pop ups.

How are you downloading them once you click on them on mininova? I find NDS files download really quickly as they are so small and can download 8+ at a time. I use Utorrent. They may take a long time if your port isn't open correctly or if you have a firewall.

ok to download from torrent sites you will need a bittirrent client like utorrent, you have to install this before you can download from torrent sites
utorrent

a lot of nds files are zipped when you download them so download winrar from mininova to unzip them.

also are you on windows xp or vista?

because if you do use torrents best to install peerguardian 2 as this protects you from recieving letters dropping through the post regarding downloads
