Personally, I'd just get the RPG, but I guess this is good for a budget flash card.

Looks like a pretty great cart. I'm debating to get one of these or the RPG. I'll probably pay a little more and get the RPG.
I really like the GUI, and all the options in the Start Menu. Hoping it gets the more advanced features that a couple other carts have. |

Price difference between this and the RPG is 30-40USD in case you were wondering.
I also apologize for how poorly written this review is. Unfortunately its the best I can muster right now, so bare with it. |

The only reason the cheat menu doesnt have touch screen support is because when I made it i didn't really have touch support in mind, I may in the future add touch support but i like it as it is at the moment, about the extra features those will come eventually.

You really should use thumbnail images instead of making the full size images small with size tags. The page would load about 50x faster, and that's not an exaggeration. You have images that are over 1200KB displayed at the size of a 20KB thumbnail.
Real thunbnails look better than browser scaling anyway. This post has been edited by Destructobot: Mar 21 2008, 06:50 AM |

Looks great. Another fine job Urza. So I guess it is safe to say anything the AK2 has right now the RPG already has too right? What I mean is, the last time I checked MKDS DL play with RPG's 4.06 firmware it didn't work but now with 4.08 already out and your review of the AK2 passing MKDS DL play I want to know if the RPG also offers this better DL play support.
EDIT: Urza happy 3000th post. This post has been edited by golden: Mar 21 2008, 06:54 AM |

What is the performance with the castlevanias? I've read that they lag even with fast SD(HC) cards...

I was hoping this would have the opensource OS too
 . Still, if I can't find an AceKard RPG in a US retailer in the coming months I may get this anyway. I dig the GUI, and don't really want the features that the Cyclo has over this. C'mon US retailers >_< |

The acekards are really nice. If I was to get one, it'd be the ZRPG though. But I'm waiting to see if it can catch up with all of the Cyclo's *exclusive* features. For now, my R4 is still truckin

Well this certainly looks like it *might* be the new budget card to recommend.

It really is impressive
I had someone come over today that wanted 4 flash cards for his kids. I set up 4 Acekards for him and gave him a run down in a couple of minutes. He was a happy chap. My only suggestion to AceKard is to make their website less Chinese, or split it into 2. Chinese and English on the same page looks too confusing to me |
