Hello! I've been searching for hours on where to buy a flash card, but all the sites I've come across feel fishy or have no encryption during checkout... What are the recommended sites for purchasing flash cards for the ds/3ds?

There is an emulator for GBA on normal flash carts like the R4, but it doesn't play a lot of games and has graphical bugs in a lot more, the DSTwo's special emulators are currently better.

Do not get that second cart, it's a shit clone by a shit team.

If it's not listed there, do not buy it.

I will be going with
http://nds-card.com/ProShow.asp?ProID=149
or
http://nds-card.com/ProShow.asp?ProID=135

both of these are the best

DSTwo you will have no worries about future proofing tho
its worth the extra cost because of the features and theres has been no need for a new revision of the card
the R4ids.cn Gold has had Revisions 6,7,8,9,A,C so gives you an idea of hardware revisions they have gone through

I will be going with the first, as good as the DSTwo looks, I need 2 cards and I cant afford 2 DSTwo's They look great but just cant afford them atm :\ Also happy 300 Internets! I was the 300th :P hehe
@Rydian yea I was wondering why the clone wasn't there, I guess I know now... Though I think there should be a sticky with trustful sites.. Finding them is a pain... I literally went over 10 pages yesterday trying to find one that wasn't a scam.

Edit: I'm thinking about going for 1 DSTwo and 1 R4i Gold, sucks that I cant get any discounts xD

I hate how the stores that have the cheaper DSTwos are sold out on DSTwos :cry: Also when it comes to the R4i Gold, does it matter if it says R4i Gold RT or R4i Gold 3DS? S:

Yeah the ones that sell for like $39 or whatever tend to get sold out because a lot of other stores still try to charge $45 or something.

The "RTS" is just a new label since Wood added RTS stuff, as long as it's r4ids.cn then it's the same thing.
