In your FAQ you mention that you provide a custom BIOS, but one can also install an official BIOS.
What's the difference?
Which is the recommended option for which scenario?

I don't recommend using the Nintendo BIOSes unless it ends up fixing a compatibility problem (don't currently know of any) or if you need to decrypt games.

Plus even if you can use a custom BIOS image, it would be moot if you can just decrypt the ROMs with a certain utility and get on with it.

I've always used the official nds bios and never had any issues. I always had problems trying to run homebrew without it
