Would 2gb be plenty?

I guess but that's a shitty clone with bad Rom compatablity

BTW 2GB might not be enough from a longer perspective but 8GB should be more than enough. (the biggest DS ROMs are 512MB untrimmed - that makes only 3 very big games with a 2GB MicroSD).

Brand wise, SanDisk is the best for these types of devices. As for the amount of memory, I usually don't play around and just get 32GB micro SD cards, that is just me though. I recommend between 8-16GB.

get a 32GB card. max supported by the sdhc standard.
there is no actual reason to get lower cards, i mean, i got several 32gb cards for 10 bucks in retail last year
no DS flashcart supports sdxc as far as i know, so 32gb max.

You can use 64GB and higher if you use a fat32 converter. I use a 128GB in fat32 format on my DSTWO Plus lol.

weird, my old dstwo doesn't read my 64gb fat32 formated card no matter what

Average game sizes appear to be 50-100MB so I'd say 8GB would suffice - but looking at the price difference, you may as well get 16GB and you know you'll have enough.
