Hacking What do you guys recommend?

[Yokimari]

I won't lie, I want to buy a flash card for playing DS backups, and if I do, this'll be the FOURTH Nintendo DS I've bought.. I've lost interest in it because I couldn't run homebrew and backups and I didn't have the money and resources to keep up with the latest thing. So my question is, what would be the best kit to get? I was eyeing this particular one, but my question is, will it do what I want it to do? I also apologizing if I'm breaking any rules here.

Use google and the search function for research, there are PLENTY of topics similar to this already.

Check out reviews on GBAtemp. They're pretty good.

If you want the best flashcart and don't care about the price: CycloDS Evolution
If you want the best flashcart but do care about the price: Acekard 2
If you want a flashcart with onboard NAND memory and if you plan on developing: Acekard R.P.G.
If you want a flashcart that also offers a Slot-2 (not for free though): EZFlash V & M3DS Real
If you want a Slot-2 expansion: EZFlash 3-in-1 (GBA, RAM, & Rumble)
If you want an alternative to the CycloDS Evolution but cheaper and a crappy GUI: SuperCard DS One
If you want a flashcart that could possible brick your Nintendo DS: R4 DS, R4 III & N5

I recommend this.

Also: stay the fuck away from R4s and the like. This is all you need to know.

Thanks, I decided to go with the CycloDS.

What the hell? :\
I own a R4 that I bought like last year...is that a problem? Should I change to a different flash cart in fear of getting bricked?

Nah. It's just that pretty much every R4 you get today is a clone and those are badly build a lot of the time, thus some can brick your DS.

Oh, okie ^__^ Had me worried there for a second, lol. Shame though what happened to the R4 :\ Guess you can't be #1 forever.
