Best r4 type card?

Meurig06 · 03-08-12 at 04:27 PM

Chaps,
My kids all have older DSTT cards for their DS Lites. The are now having problems with more recent DS Lite games running on them.

What is the best R4 type card that will better handle more recent games?

Cheers

Acekard 2i w/ AKAIO firmware

it has a bit of a learning curve though but once you have it configured, it works like a charm

I'm also using Acekard 2i.

My vote is for the Acekard 2i as well.

I would agree, however, I'm not real computer savvy, and if I can figure it out, you can too.

supercard is awesome

acekard 2i or supercard dstwo are probably the top 2 (but more expensive), but there still are lots of good cards (and lots of bad), something cheaper and still up-to-date is the r4i-sdhc.com card.

thanks! i was about to buy r4gold card thinking it was functional with 3ds

Trireaper · 03-09-12 at 03:51 AM

just looked up some stuff.... it TECHNICALLY works with the 3DS but not the 3DS games themselves

**PhrawzT** · 03-09-12 at 11:03 AM

I've got an Acekard 2i to play DS games on my 3DS and I love it. Definately better than my old G6 card.

Meurig06 · 03-09-12 at 04:47 PM

Cheers guys, looks like acekard it is then.

Meurig06 · 03-14-12 at 04:08 PM

Guys, it appears to be a lot more difficult to get a reliable seller for the acekard. Can anyone suggest an EU based supplier that is reliable and as above board as someone can be selling these cards?

cheers

Ds Super Card TWO is good. They still support it unlike the EZ-FLASH IV I bought for my Gameboy Advance which I thought would still have even a website up but discovered I was going to spend the next month of my free time writing the firmware for this devil. I got it working in the end by studying some skin files I found online and their structure, you had to skin the OS so the skin files and the skinning utility gave me a lot of clues. If anyone wants a copy of that let me know I'll get it to you.

But yah the Super Card DS TWO is still supported, and well too; which reminds me there is a new firmware I have to Download. It's good if you have a DSi or DSi XL, they have a GBA emulator for it which is great.

I had the DS Super Card TWO first and I thought the EZ Flash-IV would be the same deal.

Please remember to code tag any external links, an easy way is to highlight your links and press the "#" button on the toolbar.
Or you can manually type in the code tags... [code]Links[/code]
[url] tags need to be removed from links as they make the links live (click-able), they do not display correctly & send a referrer when clicked ie our site details get sent to the other site which can be problematic
