ShopTemp's R4 and R4i Gold confirmed compatible with Wood R4

Costello · Apr 10, 2010

EDIT: the R4i Gold sold by ShopTemp is also compatible with Wood R4. Download Wood R4i Gold here!

I have been sent some photos from the Shoptemp team...

the "original R4 DS" they are selling is confirmed to be compatible with the Wood R4 new firmware, they've just tested it
they just sent me those photos v

However be careful because ShopTemp sells 4 kinds of R4's:
- "Official R4DS": confirmed working
- R4 SDHC: not working
- R4i SDHC: not working
- R4i Gold: not working

Looky, they made a new banner and everything.

Yum.
I'll probably direct my friends to Shoptemp if they need a flash cart.
I like the banner xD

Based off of AceKard technology?

edit: that's better

Dangy · Apr 10, 2010

I'm so tempted to buy this even though I have an AK2i...

Lol, they actually modified the text.

I thought "based off of" was also acceptable though.

Awesome banner. Can't beat it for $6 now that Wood is out and about!

I bet the cheap R4's will be flying out of warehouses due to this.

Good for a new business. Wish ShopTemp all the best.

I'm a little disappointed actually, these carts used to go for $3-$4 on DealExtreme.

Me too. I'm tempted to get one, but I could get screen covers or something for $6.

I'm also tempted to buy a card, but alas, I am broke.

The only drawback I see is the 2 GB space limit.

I don't know if those (dealextreme) were the original ones though... were they?

on Shoptemp they actually confirmed woodRPG compatibility, at least thats something.

not to be an ass, but priceangels.com has them for like 3.75.... nearly half the price.

62.5%, technically. But, in all honesty, is it worth quibbling over $2.25? For christ's sake, I don't want to take R4 stereotypes seriously, but how cheap can you get?

Besides, a purchase at Shoptemp supports the community.

chazam1337 · Apr 11, 2010

well to tell you the truth,the first r4 i had ever bought, was $40 and that was from supercardnds.com back in i think 2006. so im not some money grubbin goon, I know for a fact i will be making my supercard 2 purchase there

RupeeClock · Apr 11, 2010

Looking back now, the R4 was totally worth the money.
It was a brand new Slot 1 solution, it was unheard of back then!
The ease of no-patching tools, the convenience of no passcard, the versatility of the microSD card, and all the DS games playing so well, sometimes even better!

It was just amazing at the time, Slot 1 flashcarts still are.

Is it possible to see R4s raise in price because of this?

most likely no

acekard never raised the price when akaio was made.

If they did, even the n00bs would stop buying it; because most of them do so because it's that dirt cheap. The low price is basically the only thing keeping the R4 afloat these days.

fli_guy84 · Apr 13, 2010

Ha! Just when I was about to replace my original R4 with this, a new firmware came out. Looks like I can keep my R4 for another year or two or perhaps until 3DS arrives.

Aitherion · Apr 14, 2010

Shame that R4s don't work with the DSi. Wood looks awesome.

ShopTemp's R4 and R4i Gold confirmed compatible with Wood R4
