Whenever a friend needs a cart, I suggest them the DSONE SDHC, since it's easily found second hand and it's not pricy.
EOS is feature rich (Wii compatibility, RTS, on screen guide) and they can also run YSMENU for the less tech inclined (lacks RTS but gains auto patching of decrypted roms)
More carts with RTS are:
  • the iSmart MM / DSTWO (adds action replay / cheat engine RAM search, but shares compatibility quirks with the DSONE, such as euro tingle white screens if not rebuilt - to do so, use either crystaltile2 or devkitpro's tool, can't remember the name...)
  • The CycloDSi / CycloDS (My daily driver - good luck finding one... To be honest from my tests, comparing them both... the SC in-game menu works better - also, Fossil Fighters Champions white screens even when apfix'd.)
  • YWG official wood kernel, sadly not the R4/Acekard RPG versions; only works with the r4ids.cn & r4idsn.com carts. Not in my collection, so if someone has them and want to share their experience, please feel free to do so.
Others, such as EZ-flash V / iSmart Premium & iTouch DS / M3 with Sakura are too outdated, even if they have RTS (No Wii compatibility, jam with the band / warioware diy issues)
And anyway, every single card mentioned is out of production...
Do any of you know new carts with decent RTS?

Decent? No. The r4isdhc.com cards have the RTS kernel iirc, but it works like complete dogshit.
You're right. These guys still around? Oh god, the "happy xmas box" bullshit. Their cards sucked even in 2009 lol.

Pretty sad! Seems like the best implementations are still team supercard & teamcyclops'.

I have found a shop stocking r4ids.cn stuff, if someone needs a RTS card and really dislikes buying used.
Hey, I can only guess about the quality of the RTS functionality, but overrall good ol' wood surely must be better than r4isdhc kernel.

On the same website there's also a newer "plus" version, but upon online research many people do not recommend it, as there was a late malfunctioning batch made...
Never tried this website before (shop01media was my jam) but if someone has money to burn...
50% chance of receiving a plus anyway, or maybe it's out of stock already and they didn't update the counters.
Don't think it's a scam, as people from ElOtroLado bought stuff there.

Hi. Any news on that? Seems like scam to me (with the given price)

Sorry - didn't try the website myself, I have no need of other flashcards.
I'd recommend just picking a used supercard if you need RTS...
If DSTWO or iSmart MM are too pricy DSONE's not too bad, it's the only other cart with 99% RTS (Cyclo in-game menu freezes certain games on return to game, never happened with DSTWO and DSONE - and with a Cyclo you can't open the menu at all while playing Golden Sun, while you can with the SC)
(hint: with DSONE eos turn off "bypass anti piracy", a pain since its enabled by default and you gotta change it manually for every single game but leaving it on causes weird shit to happen, one that I remember are video glitches in BN5 intro... DSTWO and iSmart MM do not have this option at all, and do not exhibit glitches with default "patch" settings.)
Never had any speed issues with all of them, I use a good pSLC sd - a Kingston Industrial.
