I don't mean to be rude but your review wasn't that helpful since you weren't able to review DSi mode but if your able to in the future can you do Castlevania: PoR/OoE in DSi mode so i can get a idea of the performance boost?

Hahaha! Leiger and I are very sorry that we live in Australia. I'm sure he won't mind moving to the US so he can test that for you. ;)

Agreed - I was hoping that the Europe bootstrap would work for Aussie consoles as it is mostly EUR games that are sold over here. Didn't work out, unfortunately :(

Thanks Bulea for the comments, I happen to agree with you.
When I can finally get DSi mode working and reviewed I will send you a link back here again. I'd love to hear your opinions after that - as very few people are willing to comment negatively. Thanks for that :) Will be good to get some more honest feedback.
I'll make sure to test Castlevania - I have the game (Portrait of Ruin) lying around somewhere…

First off, I'd like to announce CycloDS Revolution's new YouTube channel. If you want to be e-mailed when new videos are uploaded, sign into your account and subscribe!
My plan is to record a few videos, then give a quick written overview of the iEvolution. I will continue updating this page over the next few days.
If you have any questions, feel free to post them here and I'll attempt to answer them. You can also ask any questions over on the Team Cyclops forums.
Unboxing
There are a few things to note here:
(I don't mention build quality in this video - check the next video for that)
Rating: 8/10 - Looks like Team Cyclops has put some additional effort into the packaging this time, however the build quality of the card suffers slightly. This is most likely only due to it being a pre-production build.
DS mode
Quick notes:
Rating: 10/10 - Everything I tested works as well as it does in the original Evolution. If you have one of the originals, and are considering upgrading, you won't be disappointed by the GUI. DS mode is essentially a clone of the original Evolution.
DSi mode
Unfortunately, I am unable to test this at this stage. The DSi Bootstrap is only available for USA and European consoles at this time.
Rating: Not available
Game compatibility
If I am able to get DSi mode working on my Australian console, I will test a number of games in both DS and DSi mode and post the results.
