The PassMe is an unofficial passthrough card that fits into the main Nintendo DS cartridge slot. It is designed to let the DS run unsigned code through the secondary Game Boy Advance Cartridge slot.

This is a temporary solution as writable Nintendo DS cartridges have yet to be designed and manufactured. An authentic DS cartridge needs to be attached to the PassMe for it to function.

The original PassMe only works with DS version 3 or below. PassMe2 works with all versions of the DS.

There are several PassMe clones like SuperPass , PassKey and Ezpass.

How it's done

The program entry point is written in its header, so the PassMe changes its value to redirect it to the GBA Slot address. However, header is protected from tampering by a CRC (Cyclic redundancy check). To work with more than one cartridge, the PassMe is able to calculate a new CRC.
