Acekard 2i flash card

3DS compatibility is a new thing, it wasn't in the original description.

If a shop sells you some old stock that hasn't been updated, you will need to run it on a DS, DS Lite or DSi in order to run the update file.

 

Shoptemp itself isn't a shop, it's a directory of shops and their products and reviews.

There's no way to get around having an older device, just be sure that you buy from a shop that advertises it as 3DS-compatible.

Please note that the Acekard 3 is a fake product.

 

ShopTemp only lists stores that sell flashcarts, such as the following for the Acekard 2i:

I just bought an Acekard 2i from this place cause it was the cheapest place in the US (foreign countries take too long to ship)
http://www.gameplayfun.com/http-www-gamepl...s-6-htm-s/6.htm

It came pre-updated so that it can run on the 3DS from the get-go. Anyways, I can confirm that site is legit seeing as how I have an Acekard 2i that works on my 3DS.

 

Hey I just bought my Ak2i from there too!
My question is:

When you got the card from there, did you need to update it through a DS/DSi machine first?
Or, was it updated whereas all I need is my 3DS and just drag and drop games, etc on to the card?

Thanks!

It says it has shipped, I cant wait to play it!

 

As you're from the U.K. why not buy from http://www.xpertron.co.uk/-acekard-2i-3ds_c958 as they are based in the Channel Isles where it is still legal to sell them (it's illegal in the rest of the U.K.) delivery is very quick (3-5 days) and they are reasonable. Also they sell genuine AceKard 2i's that are ready to go for the 3DS.

 

£18? wow, rip off merchants.
they're probably buying these things for about £5 each.

 

No, it's called business...you know, making a profit? and even if it's 5, there are other fees to pay. yes, place to store isn't free either even if you own a home and using it there. also, this is aimed towards a niche market, not a big market. niche market = less buyers = need a bigger profit margin = higher prices.

 

If you meant the place I ordered from (gameplayfun), then yeah the Acekard 2i is compatible with the 3DS when you open it. If you ordered a microsd card (I did because I didn't want to order from another palce ) too, then it's loaded with the latest version of AKAIO.
