Nintendo DS games
The part that interest the potential owners the most is, ofcourse, the NDS compatibilty. I can tell you from my own experience, and from the experience of other, that it is almost perfect! Currently there are NO NDS games that won't run with G6 Lite. This is mainly because of the good support that is given. Almost as soon as a non-working rom comes out, a new, updated G6 Manager is created which makes the rom work. Only the NDS Browser isn't working because of the external memory that was provided with the original cart.

Other games
Besides GBA and NDS games the G6 Lite also has the (build-in) ability to play a fairly amount of NES, SNES, Gameboy, Gameboy Color and Sega Mastersystem roms. These roms can be transferred directly to the G6 Lite cart without using the software. You can put .NES file in the EMU folder and play them, or you can use Pocketnes on your G6 Lite (this is recommended). Use Snezziboy for SNES roms.
To play musci and videos on your G6 Lite you first will have to convert them. I won't go indepth, but you simply have 2 methods to convert and play them on G6 Lite, which both take long. Video playback on G6 Lite isn't that great, neither is the music. You should see this features as an extra to playing games. I recommend you to search for a M3 if you want better video and music support on your flashcard.

Passcard Required
A con of the G6 Lite is that it requires a Passcard to run. I used Passcard 3, which runs perfectly with the G6 Lite. Passcard are on sale for about 15 euro's, which isn't much, but I makes the G6 Lite a more expensive option than the one slot flashcarts. 

Round up
!
Positive:
+ Fits perfectly into DS Lite
+ Great NDS game menu
+ Real-time save for GBA
+ Perfect DS and GBA playback, with good support

Negative:
- Homebrew support not that good
- Converting and playing music and video on G6 Lite takes much time
- Passcard needed 

Final conclusion and comments are at the last page!
