R4i Gold 3DS from www.r4ids.cn will do all that, and it's built way better than an acekard 2i. People are going to tell you an Acekard 2i is better, but really it's not. Akaio (acekard kernel) is awesome, but points get knocked off for the poor build quality. A reputable place with a cheap price is lightake.com. This cart is great too and it's only $5.60 go here.

Wrong link there matey.

And the Gold 3DS is an Acekard clone I think?

Edit:

Lightake link to R4i Gold 3DS

Nope, not an ak clone, as far as I know. I'm actually not so sophisticated on identifying what cart a cart is derived from, but I'm certain it's not an ak clone (if it were an ak clone, It'd probably have akaio support to some extent, but r4i gold 3ds only has wood r4 support). You'd have to open the cart up and compare the pcb/build to that of another.

EDIT: if you're saying that the UI looks very similar, that's because both are created from the same source code.

Anyways, r4i gold 3ds would be recommended, since some acekard 2i's suffer from contact issue. Fortunately, my ak2i haven't had any contact issues, though.

No, the link was correct. I wanted to suggest a budget flashcard to the original poster. I know I didn't link the first card I suggested, but I did say where to buy one cheap. It's cool you gave the guy a direct link. The Ace3ds has stepped up its game. Kernel and firmware updates have been pumping out mighty quick, as of late. It looks like a real contender for users who just want to play their games, and listen to an .mp3 or watch a .dpg file every once in a while. Not everyone needs a Porsche, some people love Mustangs or Camaros.

It's bullshit, that's what it is. Ignore it.

Do NOT get just anything with "R4" in the name.

 

[DinohScene]

Be smart and get a flashcard that is $10 more then an R4.

 

[Rydian]

Well, not to say that The R4i Gold isn't decent, I'm saying don't get JUST ANY R4, the majority are shit.

 

[DinohScene]

R4i Gold is only decent since it's supported by YWG indeed.
Otherwise it would be the same piece of useless plastic like all the other R4's.

 

[Themanhunt]

R4i Gold 3DS and R4i-SDHC 3DS are the only decent R4 cards imo.

I strongly recommend the Acekard 2i, it can do everything you've specified in your first post, and there aren't nearly as many fakes/clones.

DOnt waste time with all the R4s, get an ak2i.

I second this.

I started back then at 2006 with DS-X which was awesome and with others but now Acekard2i IS the best i ever had

don't get anythinh with m3 r4 g6 and especally n5

 

[DinohScene]

don't get anythinh with m3 r4 g6 and especally n5

M3 was a good supported flashcard until the team abandoned it.
R4... well you know the story on some.
G6 is pretty much the same as the M3 iirc.
N5 was a clone of the DSTT iirc.

Haven't heard the word N5 in a long time tho.

The R4i Gold's not spring loaded.

Wifi works fine on all modern carts.
