<h1>How to run TADs on a retail DSi</h1>
TADs are a format used to install DSiWare titles onto Nintendo DSi development units (see: <a href="/dsidev/twlnmenu.html">TwlNmenu</a>. The format is nearly identical to the WAD on Wii. Sadly nearly all TADs are made exclusively for developers and won't install on normal consoles...
<br><br>
<b><span style="color:green;">Thankfully we have decryption tools! Just use these to turn your TADs into normal DSi ROMs (<code>.nds</code>, <code>.srl</code>, <code>.dsi</code>).</span></b>
<br><br>
<h3><code>split_tad_console.exe</code></h3>
<p>An unofficial program but supports development, retail, and update encrypted TADs. This is made for <b>Python v3</b> only!<br>USAGE: <code>python decrypt_tad.py TADFILE</code><br>

</ul>
</p>
<h3><code>split_tad_console.exe</code></h3>
<p>This is the official Nintendo tool for extracting TADs. This is make for <b>Windows</b> only!<br>USAGE: <code>split_tad_console.exe TADFILE</code><br>

</ul>
</p>
<p><span style="color:green;">Once your DSi ROMs have been extracted, run them in an emulator or on real hardware like nomal!</span></p>
