Eh. I didn't get the idea that it'd have the functionality of the other flashcart, and their site was never good about not being ambiguous.
Now that it's been cleared up to me, I can see that it wasn't intended to play DS games. But to the untrained eye, do you think the enduser will see the difference? If it doesn't flat say, "It can't play DS games," and you see that it cost a dollar more and still has a microSD slot, wouldn't you think it's the same cart plus NTRBoot? Think about the average customer when you consider a product like this. Poorly worded English and lack of clarification is what pushed people to want this cart more than anything else. People want a cart that both plays DS games and can install NTRBoot, which is what this cart appeared to do if you weren't paying close enough attention.
I know it doesn’t completely help, but at the same time I want users to be informed. Deep down I am just hoping my posts come up when people google this cart and they don’t buy it when they realize they can get something better
The cart most likely has a microSD just because it is most certainly just an R4i-SDHC 3DS RTS (reflashed). The pricing is bullshit. That's my only real complaint
My complaint is that the price makes it look like it has to offer more to justify it. Which is why I am so aggressively trying to push the doesn’t play DS games issue. I want that to be upfront so people don’t waste their money. I am not doing this for regulars, I am trying to do this for the mislead
Tho it's understandable. They probably calculated the price for the cards at one point and they can't sell the exact same cards for half the money. You even get a complete flashcard for DS ROMs - just with another flash image.
It’s pretty obvious that they simply reflashed the R4i-SDHC to make a quick buck. Which was honestly a stupid way to go about it. They should have just released their own flasher and left it at that. People would obviously go for the cheaper cart if it did everything the R4i-Gold does and a lot cheaper.
Yes, the price is nonsense. I thought it'd be significantly cheaper.
To be honest, R4i-SDHC was always cheap, I mean, all of their carts are literally cheap clones of DSTT, so I cannot expect more from them.
Even better, those carts have a time bomb on their kernel, wouldn't be great if this one has one? It might be the reason they left a slot in order to update theirs cards
First, I am less upset as I was earlier today.
I have a flashcard from that website, they gave me with an outdated version a reseller , so they told me I had to put a date like 2009, I was piss off because some games have problems if you change the date on the 3ds, iirc the rts with Wi-Fi label expires at 2019, with a modded file I could run ysmenu without the time bomb present, I don't trust them at all.
This card exists for one simple reason: people who do not have access to a cfw 3ds to set up a ntrboot card themselves, or knowing anyone who can. It's just a pre-made ntrboot card, nothing more. I wonder how anyone could not see this right from the beginning
