The only reliable flashcard site people on this site will link you to is http://nds-card.com, and the card you're asking about is this card, which I can vouch for: it's a good card. nds-card is GBAtemp's official sponsor, btw.

Thanks! It's more expensive here, but I'll go for legitimacy over price any day.

Its a pretty decent flashcart but I dont know if itll work on an updated 3ds.

I wonder..... my N3DS is on the newest US firmware 11.5.0-38U

Nintendo stopped blocking flashcards around 7.x. I can confirm that the card works on at least 11.3, so it should work on 11.5. The site even mentions it works on the latest firmware.

I just now noticed that a few seconds ago lol would this be a great option for DS roms and homebrew? I only really need those 2 things since my Sky3DS does 3DS roms well! ;)

I'm glad you dug this up! So basically the ones with a year printed are clones with code in the firmware to stop working? I'll just pay more for one that works! Now I saw this one from this site, this thing looks sketchy, but what do you think? http://www.modchipsdirect.com/r4i-sdhc-cheap.html I trust the site, ordered from them twice and got my items quickly. But this card is... hmm.....

EDIT: Taking a second look, "Dual-Core" printed on the label gives it away that it's a clone. Hmm...

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
