Exclusive Acekard R.P.G. Media Blowout! *UPDATE*

[GeekShadow]

Very cool design

I will buy this

Man, that looks really slick. I can't wait to see how they incorporate their hardware features; it'd be a total waste if the USB was used ONLY for file transfer, and the NAND was unable to be used as a RAM extension.

I wanna wait and see how much that 8GB cart is going to be. I don't think I'm going to rush out and get this 1GB cart(eventhough I really want to). I did that when the 8G G6 Real was released, and I just traded it in when the 16G came out.

I couldn't care less about that microsdhc slot, I want that whole 8GB of high speed internal NAND memory.

What kind of USB connector is that? Is it the same one as the PSP's or is it the smaller one used in a lot of digital cameras?

Same one as PSP's from the look of it.

Will it be able to play video (dpg) files?

This cart is 8Gb, which is 1GB. The G6 has a 8Gb model and a 16Gb model, which is 2GB's.

After looking more closely at the pictures, the microSD slot is set up like the CycloDS so it probably won't be spring loaded. It also says USB mini on the cart...I don't think I've seen the smaller ones but I guess I haven't looked at a lot of digital cameras...

The 8GB was also a mistake that was actually 8Gb.

 

[ZAFDeltaForce]

The interface is wow... Thanks for the pictures man, really made my day

 

[roguetrip]

pppppffffff, 8Gb? (i almost sharted myself when originally hearing 8GB+SDHC support) WTF, thats a teaser, i hope atleast its gonna do something good for the market, Its gonna take quite a bit to pry me off my R4+EZF-V 3in1 and 5GB worth of micro SD's

Maybe i'll buy some of your guy's old R4/Cyclo EVO's

 

[CrystalSweet]

that card looks amazing!
and crap, i just bought an r4 ds
after convincing my parents with difficulty
not gonna get a new card for like a year

Aww...really? I thought it was 8GB, not 8G. That sucks. This cart is like every other cart to me now. I already have a cart that offers microsdhc,, and a cart that has 16G of space, so this is nothing special to me now, lol(Really wanted 8GB of internal memory). You shouldn't have told me KINGOFNOOBS.

Guess I won't be spending my money on it now. You just totally shot my day.

i didn't even think of the internal memory being used as ram but that is a good idea and if it does work then that's another + for this cart. nice interface from looks of it. o and wouldn't it suck if u had to copy games from the micro sd card to the NAND flash just to play them, lol just a thought

 

[Seraph]

Well, one of the features does say you get to choose where you boot from, as well as being able to transfer files to and from.

 

[currynoodles]

Wow.. The interface looks great. It's so polished, not to mention a pretty good price. Hope it's as good as they say.

 

[cheapassdave]

i hope they have some kind of a dust cover for that usb plug, it looks naked without one

 

[OSW]

lol good point. but i doubt they will include one.

 

[leetdude_007]

We'll see. We'll see...

 

[jalaneme]

to be honest, the cart itself looks, how can i say this kind of like a beta kind of thing , and in one of the pictures you can see right thru it and see the orange box behind it also from what i've seen the acekard in the past hasn't had the best frequent updates so i will give this a miss, also i don't see any mention of a micro SD slot? so why is everyone saying there is one? the usb port thingy looks like the ds xtreeme.

i think i will stick to getting a cyclo DS for now, i might see the review when it gets here but definitely won't be getting this but i won't be staying with the R4DS for any longer, that's for sure.

 

[ditto_n]

also i don't see any mention of a micro SD slot? so why is everyone saying there is one?

How the hell did you miss it, its in the first picture.
