    Hacking Micro SD cards?

    You would want to get MicroSDHC (not MicroSD) because MicroSDHC is a new technology and is better in terms of speed and capacity. Speed Guide: Class 2 < Class 4 < Class 6 About brand, I don't know much to objectively judge the quality of memory card. As long as they work everything else may be...

    Hacking GBAtemp's Unofficial List of Flashcart dealers to never buy from

    That's weird. It isn't listed as a reason of blacklist in the first page. I don't think a seller has the responsibility to warn you if you are buying a brand which is a clone. It is similar to blaming a computer shop because it is also selling some bad-brand motherboards or power supplies, and...

    Hacking edge or acekard?

    May I introduce other options? EzFlash V Plus is fairly cheap. The team is active and is adding more and more premium features into it. It's moving away from just a normal card. Acekard2 is a good normal card. The only complaint is so-so build quality (people tell me it has higher failure...

    Hacking What is the best Flashcart for NDS? New NDS owner here :D

    Thank you PharaohsVizier. My original explanation is really bad and misleading. Thanks for pointing that out. I have rewriten my statements. PharaohsVizier's comparison is very good. I learnt much more about their differences from the review too. But there is one point worth mentioning, the...

    Hacking Cyclo or DSTT

    If you want the best most feature-rich cards, there are only two options so far. * CycloDS * Supercard DS One Go for Supercard DS One. It is half the price of CycloDS but it doesn't mean it's only half the quality of CycloDS. Actually they are on par, or even slightly better than CycloDS...

    Hacking Cyclo or DSTT

    Hey your question is funny. Both cards are not in the same segment. You somehow compare apples and oranges. DSTT is a basic card only suitable for budget buyers. CycloDS is a premium card which is the most expensive, much more expensive than another premium card Supercard DS One (50% cheaper)...

    Hacking Recommended Slot 1 card for a newbie

    The future of R4 is gloomy. It is currently unsupported. It doesn't support SDHC. MicroSDHC is much faster than the old tech (MicroSD). Also it allows much larger capacity. It doesn't have premium features that some of the best cards have. It isn't cheap either. No point getting an okay product...

    Hacking YsMenu: Global soft reset, small icon, font style/size

    Well I see the topic moved to R4DS by a moderator. As a matter of fact, I'm actually using Supercard DS One but it supports YSMenu. YsMenu is good for its speed but it lacks too much in other ways (I can't even globally switch on Soft Reset or show some icons). Speed is not utmost important (we...

    Hacking Web browsing - clunky? can you log on to any wifi?

    1. Hey I hear that browsing on Nintendo DS is poor due to the lack of RAM. So it is always better to get more RAM to improve your browsing experience. The comments on using Nintendo DS to browse is negative. Depending on what sites you browse it can stress on your Nintendo DS hardware. 2...

    Hacking Recommended Slot 1 card for a newbie

    Well some competitors know they can't compete with some of the best cards so they drop price to ensure the competitiveness. DSTT and Acekard2 is in the same price range recently. You should go for Acekard2. It is clearly better. However some complain Acekard2 card is prone to breaking (the...

    Hacking What is the best Flashcart for NDS? New NDS owner here :D

    Supercard DS One Slow GUI As a matter of fact, when we say Supercard DS One GUI is sluggish, we are talking about a few seconds of slowness at worst at default settings. It is never you have to wait like 30 seconds to get into the game. BUT if you are willing to spend a bit of time to tweak...

    Hacking Which flash cards / carts do you recomend buying? [Solution]

    It isn't sooooooooo long ago since I heard about it in May-June 2008. It is just a few months ago. The defective batch, as an example, was reported in that timeframe. If they have fixed it the problem is gone for a few months only. It can't be said as "ancient", in which I expect it to be much...

    Hacking What is the best Flashcart for NDS? New NDS owner here :D

    What do you mean by battery save function? If you mean it is a feature to save battery power Supercard DS One has one too. If your Nintendo DS is idle for a specific time (configurable via ini file) it will switch to save some battery. Of course the best way to save battery is to shut the...

    Hacking YsMenu: Global soft reset, small icon, font style/size

    fgghjjkll, what a negative response. I wish your answer was wrong. (Well, actually thanks so much for your answer )

    Hacking YsMenu: Global soft reset, small icon, font style/size

    YsMenu looks plain but it loads fast. I will love YsMenu if I'm able to solve a few problems I have 1) How can I globally switch the soft reset on for all games? I find it tedious to keep checking the soft reset option for each game. 2) Is it possible to show a small icon beside the title...
