Due to how the DSi actively prevents users from running certain cartridge ROMs, I figured, what if I do what works on real hardware? People install Unlaunch to do many things on the DSi, so I should be able to do that here as well. The reason I need to is mainly because certain DSi games like Pokémon Conquest were only released as a cartridge (due to being too big to be DSiWare). You cannot just switch to DS mode to run games like Pokémon Conquest, as it only runs on a DSi or 3DS. While being able to switch to DS mode works for DS games, it does not work for DSi games at all. A lot of games can use (and therefore require) the extra 12 MB of RAM, which isn't available in DS mode. So I decided to follow the guide on dsi.cfw.guide, but I got stuck at the part where you need to install Unlaunch (required to be able to run DS and DSi cartridges (or in this case, ROMs loaded in the File menu) from TwiLightMenu++). When I try to install Unlaunch, it doesn't succeed. It just freezes up the emulated DSi (see attached image) with a screen no one else has seen. Restarting the emulated DSi has shown no lasting damage, allowing me to try again, only to get the same result. I also was not able to find any information on this, so can someone please help me with this issue?

Also, if there is an easier way to run DSi cartridge ROMs, that would also be cool.
