I know that when GBATemp did their official review of this card that what brand MicroSD card you used mattered heavily. I made sure to order a Kingston Japan 1GB with my Supercard when I bought it, but due to a shipping problem my Supercard is going to show up long before my MicroSD card will. I'm thinking of just going and buying one off the shelf, and canceling my Kingston order. So my question to you guys is:

Does the brand of the MicroSD still matter for compatability on the Supercard DS One? Particularly, does the 1GB Sandisk card work well?

I'm tired of people thinking the old review for the SCDS1 is still the one for the current V3 version... The newer version is fine.... It has none of the problems listed on the Con section now, and made lots of improvements....

Back on topic, not exactly. I'm using a Sandisk 8 gig SDHC class 4. It works, and plays fine, even on the Castlevania games. But as mentioned, the opening cutscene still lags, and for some reason, any games can freeze at any point, if your using a slow micro sd. But also, there is a DMA mode that speeds up slower micro sd cards. Also, if you're not satisfied with the speed, change the GUI with the tripple loader.

And, Japanese kingstons are still recommended for this cart, but the other choices still work fine. If you use other choices, remember that it might freeze fairly often. But it doesn't freeze so much, that the games will be unplayable. I beat a lot of games on it without freezing.

Well, I am using A-Data 4 gig SDHC Class 6 card and it's fine. No problems of any kind, then again I haven't tried Castlevania yet.

I'm also using the A-Data 4 Gig SDHC Class 6. No problems and working fine. If you're in the US, you can pick one at at newegg.com for $23-$25 shipped reallly fast.

kthankzbye. Yea, prices on SDHC cards are dropping every week. Newegg just had that card for $20.49-$5 (rebate) + $2 (shipping USPS) = $17.49 shipped... Crazy!

Just tested latest Castlevania game and didn't see any lag/slowdown on my Class 6 card during opening movie/scene.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
