N-CARD is another new slot 1 card. It uses internal storage. A MicroSD version is in development.
Approximately US$25 for 128MByte, $40 for 512MB, $50 for 1GB.
On sale 8 December.

Works on unflashed DS.
High compatibly. Out of 55 games tested, only Pinky Street Kira Kira Music Hour doesn't work. Akumajou Dracula, Tony Hawk, Opera etc all work.
Clean rom, drag and drop.

Touch screen interface.

Uses a USB to slot 2 cable to connect to computer (like the USB to link port cable for some GBA flashcarts).


Disadvantages
Virtually no homebrew support. Manufacturer is working on it.
No built in NoPass. Burning a NoPass rom to it works though.
Need to set save type for new games.
Cannot run GBA games.
Single cart download play does not work for some games.

It seems nice, but it needs a special format like AceKard.

Why on earth would you want that? You have to use slot-2 in order to use slot-1? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of a slot-1 solution? Gimme a break!

I dont get it, They SHOULD just make a device to read the NDS card like the Ninjapass I think.

PS: Whats the deal with needing to charge this Flashcard, dont they usually just take the power from the DS to run.

Edit:If this flashcard requires special formating why is it that they said just "DRAG AND DROP" clean roms then.

Edit2This looks too fishy to me, I have a Theory that the company behind this card are the Guys that made the Ultra Flashcard, followed by the Ninjapass, then the NDS 1:1 which never came out and then This card. Is too obvious this is why both the NDS 1:1 and the "N-card" both have NDSGBA written on the front sticker.

blackjaguar355: Drag & drop does not just refer to windows explorer/my computer. They could allow you to drag a rom from either into the software they provide for the card. They could also provide a driver to allow the new filesystem to be accessed by windows, thereby allowing drag & drop in windows explorer. Maybe they just mean you can drag a rom from the left side of their software to the right side. Maybe they're just full of it.

Looking at the claims and the price, it sounds like a load of crap.

kaks: I was wondering if anyone would bother converting my sig.

Interesting card, I know competition is good but with all these new manufactures coming out I have a feeling this will do more harm then good. They’ll just be taking sales from the proven makers & then more then likely end up not backing their product. I hope I’m wrong, but with the pie getting sliced up buy so many new manufactures I don’t see much of a profit in a $30-$50 card.

The people behind this product (DSGBA) also made the UFP, UFP1G, NDS 1:1, and now this, the N-card

this is basicly the same product over and over again, only better interface and different name.

It's another Acekard
unique file system
poor support for homebrew,moonshell don't work on it
unstable saving system,uses the built-in capacitor as the powersupply for the savefile,you must charge your Ncard every 2 weeks to keep your savefiles
opera?yes,it does work
