I was wondering if there are any risks involved in using a r4 with your ds lite. Such as viruses etc, which could possibly lead to it been bricked.
Well there are some cards that have been known to blow fuses, like Fake DSTT or N5 to look out forRupeeClock said:There have been one or two homebrew viruses that can basically brick the DS lite in the past, but they're extraordinarily rare and nobody has distributed it.
There's no risk in using an R4DS on your DS Lite, the only thing that you need to look out for is that you don't buy a fake R4DS.
Any R4DS that claims SDHC or DSi support is fake, and anything else silly like Ultra, King, etc.
They don't pose any threat to your DS Lite, but they have crappy software support and are generally unreliable.
If you get an original R4DS like this one at shoptemp, and install Wood R4, it'll play mostly every game just fine.
xD I was never able to find that Taihen bricker on the net (though what I would do with such a thing, I have no idea).Schicksalsheld said:No one distribute this Viruses (CrashMe) at this Time, but its possible (i have Taihen on my Harddrive =)
