If I understand everything correctly, Merki buys capture cards wholesale from loopy and resells them to the end user.

these updated capture cards from merki appeared about a month ago, perhaps they have an agreement that they will be the first to start trading, but these are my guesses, I don’t know for sure)

Sadly, you cannot ship ds internationally anymore. Will have to stay in the states.

Saw the new board isn't a drop in replacement which is too bad, but are the modifications to the shell identical? I currently have 2 USB-C DS capture cards from from you, and would love to buy a couple of the new ones to get that sweet sweet digital audio output. I'm confident enough in my ability to disassemble and reassemble the DS, along with desoldering the old and soldering in the new flex, but every time I've tried to make a cutout on a shell for something, it's ended up looking pretty terrible. Thanks!

I wanted to wait until some software issues were fixed. He decided to start selling them with the software still in "beta". That's all.

Yes, the shell modification is the same.
