Not a literal one-time use, but yeah, I don't really plan to use it for anything after the transfers.

Any reliable site that's selling the r4ids.cn cart for cheaper than $15? I've seen some for under $10, but those are all wholesale...

Would I need a DS lite or DSi to update a Supercard DSTwo to support my 3DS that sits on the latest firmware?
I heard somwhere that the card patches itself aslong as it finds the right files och the card and the power is on. Is this true?

Yes but it can brick your DSTwo if you do it incorrectly.

So how is it done?
And how do I avoid bricking my card?

You place the regular dstwoupdate.dat on sd. But put a "b" in dstwoupdate.dat ---> dstwoupdateb.dat. It will show an error screen. You should wait 7-10 minutes. Shutting off to early will cause to brick.

Rydian.
3dslink(www.3dslink.com) and r4i gold 3ds deluxe should be added to the list.
Both of them can support 3DS roms.

Is anyone able to confirm this? I want to buy a flashcart exclusively to play 3ds roms (starfox 3d, Zelda Ocarina of Time, etc) and have spent so much time trying to get a 100% confirmation that i wont be wasting my money, but am still uncertain.

Hi, I need to get a flashcard that:
-Can run on ver 1.4.3E DSi XL
-Does not need to be updated/flashed to work
-Low risk of bricking my DSi XL
-Only requires kernel and games to work out of the box
-Is affordable
-(optional) plays music and movies

I have looked at the options and Ace3ds looks acceptable, what are your opinions?

The Ace3ds I saw was pink with Mario on it, I don't want to risk fakes, is this correct?

Thanks in advance

As you're running 1.4.3, you could buy an Acekard 2i.

I am so confused by all this talk. I will break out and ask the question.

I own the pikachu 3ds xl. It is updated to the latest firmware from what I can tell.
I am just wanting to purchase a card that will allow me to play the older NDS games on the 3DS XL without any issues. I have no desire for any 3DS game support and whatnot. Just want to play older pokemon games.
Also, do the multiplayer features of the games work still when using the roms on the cards?

Supercard DStwo supports the latest firmware. I tried looking at the suggested R4 clones sites and it said they only support 6.3.X, but I've seen people talk about using it on the latest firmware. Not sure what's up with that.

Supercard DStwo plays DS games along with GBA games (which is great) and GBC (every flashcart can) so you can play all the mainline pokemon games.

Yes.
