Pirates crack Nintendo DS code

In what can only be making Nintendo grit their teeth in anger, the free reign of information on the internet has led to the creation of DS ripping and pirating software and hardware.
With a worryingly simple process of copying from your PC onto a cartridge that goes straight into your DS, would-be do-badders are now raring to go for the chance to get their games gratis.

With hacking circles already successfully cloning software and running NDS games on their PCs this was hardly unexpected, but a worry for Nintendo nonetheless.

In the past the Japanese gaming giant has had endless trouble with pirating, from the huge amounts of fake NES consoles being sold in markets, to the dodgy 100-in-1 GB/GBA cartridges.
