They are sold out everywhere because production has stopped for that flash cart since the supercard team is making a newer flash cart called the supercard dstwo+ which plays both ds and 3ds games on a single card. No information other then that is known about it though. No idea where you can get your hands on one now but if you do manage to find one expect to pay at least the price of a gateway 3ds or sky3ds since they are becoming rare/sought after. This flash cart seems like the next best thing.i want to get into the flash card area of DS since i havent played my DS in forever and want to breathe new life into it, i did some research and found the DSTWO seems to be the best but i cant find anyone who isnt sold out. Why is this? Where can i find one?
DS is a terrible console to play SNES games on anyway due to the sub 240 resolution (and If I recall that wasn't the only video issue I had on DSTWO's emulator). I never tried it but I'd expect MAME to be just as bad.They are sold out everywhere because production has stopped for that flash cart since the supercard team is making a newer flash cart called the supercard dstwo+ which plays both ds and 3ds games on a single card.

Plays everything but snes, gba, and mame games like the supercard dstwo does.
Can flash carts not play Dsi enhanced games on a DSi?
I have Sonic Classic Collection on my flash cart, and I believe one of the enhanced functions it does is dim the bottom screen to conserve battery.

So you wouldn't really be missing anything. If you must play GBA ROMS use a slot 2 cart and the DS will play them natively which is slightly better than the emulator (unless it's a DSi).
The DSTWO is pretty rare nowadays. You can still find them online on shady sites but I wouldnt reccomend them. I believe I saw one going as high as 70 $ online due to its rarity. The one from r4ids.cn isn't bad either except that it sucks on GBA and SNES emulation.Hi, so I'm looking into getting into this scene. I currently have a 9.6.0 3DS and my girlfriend has a DSi (no idea on the firmware on that but since she locked herself out of her Wifi settings because she forgot the parental controls password, I'll assume it's older, I'll ask about the firmware later). I'm primarily looking to get this to play DS games without much care on DSi Enhanced functionality. HOWEVER, I would love to get Gameboy/GBA emulation also. Seeing as how the SuperCard DSTWO isn't in stock ANYWHERE and is also much more expensive, I was considering the R4i Gold 3DS card. Searches on GBA emulation aren't exactly clear and from what I see it's mostly poor. So, is there a place I can buy a DSTWO or should I just buy the R4i and live with the terrible emulation?
thats definitely an interesting concept, but a bit much. I think I'll stick with the R4i Gold, test out the GBA emulation, and if its really that bad I'll have to suck it up and play it on my desktop which isn't that big of a deal.MrMiketheripper
It's not a total solution (due to screen size and having to carry another system) but you might want to just pick up a K1 for GBA.

Thank you very much for your patience and help guys!
If you're interested in GBA, you could pick up a cheap DS Lite, a slot-2 card, and an R4.
I wish I knew that when I sold my DSi ><The DSTWO is pretty rare nowadays. You can still find them online on shady sites but I wouldnt reccomend them.

The cart from r4ids.cnAside from DSTWO, which flashcards are 1.4.5 OFW compatible?
