Hey all, I recently got an r4 so I could use a mod for HGSS. I bought a DS Lite used that seems to be working fine otherwise. I'm not using WiFi, sound is about in the middle, brightness is level 3. After about an hour and a half the battery light starts rapidly changing from green to red. After another half hour or so it turns a solid red. If I save and restart the DS, the official DS menu says the battery is still full. I've been letting it sit on a solid red for around 20 minutes now in game, and it's still going. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks.
EDIT: To clarify, the r4 I bought was off of Newegg, the "2019 R4 R4i Gold Pro Dual Core Flash Card Adapter for Nintendo DS 2DS New 3DS XL V1.0-11.9"" As I'm a new user I'm not allowed to post the actual link, sorry.
The Micro SD card is an official SanDisk 32GB I bought at Target, FAT32 formatted.
EDIT #2: I didn't realize that time bombs existed until now. My r4 has "2019" written on it, so I assume it has one. I ordered an R4i Gold 3DS Plus from nds-card instead. I emailed them, apparently they send me their PayPal email, then I send payment that way. Seems sketchy, but this site and Reddit seem to give them good reviews. I figured I should just buy a "proper" r4 card. Anyway, it's been close to an hour and HG is still playing and the DS hasn't died. So I assume this is just a weird issue with the card?
