Hi, I got a DSi as my 3DS update made my R4i SDHC unusable.

I want to link it with my Nintendo club account for points, but I need to go on eShop on DSi to do this, and have to update it.

Is the latest DSi firmware compatible with the R4i SDHC still?

This is the one I have, comes in the red box:

So this won't work when I update the DSi to newest firmware?

Just to confirm, this R4 works right now, just not sure if it will after update.

Thanks.

Yep, it's in the original post. If you can't see it, it's the"R4i 3DS" - also known as SDHC, comes in a red box. Got it about 2 yrs ago.
You need a new flashcard. I recommend Supercard DSTwo (the best card) or R4i Gold 3DS. (r4ids.cn)
You can buy from here.

I'm Sorry but I think the only cards that work on the latest DSi/3DS FW are Supercard DS Two or the R4i Gold. As an Acekard 2i user we stopped receiving updates after 1.4.4 as there wasn't enough space for the spoofing that allowed the card to work on newer firmwares. But hey, you have a flashcard, which in my opinion is so much better than the eshop/dsishop. There is a massive wealth of DSHomebrew out there, some professional grade stuff, so I would hold off on upgrading your system.

    @BigOnYa well, starting with, idk which emulator should i use for switch, i got a gtx 1650, do you know which one would it better for my pc?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    The switch emulators on pc rely on your CPU mostly, and they only use a single core, so GPU not as important as a good CPU. I don't use switch emulator, but many here do, and willing to help.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 do you want to chime in, don't you use yuzu or ryujinx? Which do you prefer?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Morganna I'd say try them both, and see which work better for your setup, good luck, and have fun!
  • Morganna @ Morganna:
    i tried just yuzu so far, not even played, just open the game to see if it run
