Except for Sudokuhax, there is currently no practical way to run homebrew in DSi-mode. Save game hacks for hybrid card games exist, but these have severe limitations:
* The SD slot and NAND flash are inaccessible.
* The SD slot and NAND flash are inaccessible.
* The amount of code space is limited to the available space in the game's save file. (A few kilobytes)
* The amount of code space is limited to the available space in the game's save file. (A few kilobytes)
** This restriction can be lifted with external hardware like [[EEPUART]] or [[spime]]. This is how [http://svn.navi.cx/misc/trunk/nds/dsi/cookinject/ larger chunks of code] or [http://www.flickr.com/photos/micahdowty/3794878172/in/set-72157621023570420/ image files] have been loaded by developers so far.

DSiWare exploits do not have the above limits.

===The Drunken Coder's savegame exploit===
This exploit allows DSi homebrew coders to run unsigned ARM asm code in DSi-mode utilizing a buffer overflow in Cooking Coach. The hack can be found [http://drunkencoders.com/2009/08/dsi-hack-update/ here].

===Sudokuhax===
This exploit allows homebrew labeled boot.nds in the root of the SD card to be launched upon startup of the DSiware Sudoku game. This hack can be found [http://hackmii.com/2011/01/sudokuhax-release/ here]
