Those are the places I looked for the cards I bought... I got a SuperCard SD for my GBA and DS, got the N-Card which had to returned, was defective and the R4DS, all from sky2k.com but I found them through froogle.com.

Nope, USED to be after it got its ass kicked by a simple yet entertaining tennis game.
HI guys, First a little background. I have been fiddling with mds for as long as they have been available.
I own an EZ flash V + ezflash 3+1 (2 gigadata micro sd, M3 DS simply 1gig kingston micro sd, I also have a G6 cart which I use with a Passcard. I also have a (micro sd)super card lite(1 gig kingston micro sd), and a EZ flash IV with a 1 gig sandisk micro flash.
OK enough of that I have tried all of these Really I have just moved along as the technology has moved along.
To be frank I really like the G6 with a pass card solution. It really served me very well, I often keep the G6 in the slot so I can access the files on it at will.
Recently after using the M3 DS simply for a month or two, I decided to see if there was anything better on the market. Don't get me wrong the M3 solution is really good but being on the Internet reading about what others are doing with their DS I was lured into trying the EZ Flash V, I had very good results with the ez Flash IV in fact IMHO the EZ flash range of products are about as well made as this stuff gets.
Anyway after fooling around with the Moonshell interface. You know what I am not a huge fan of moon shell, It is fine for playing music but as a user interface it leaves a lot to be desired. EZ flash V has great hardware, I prefer the non spring side loading flash card slot, there is no way I can loose the card with the EZ flash V this is not true with the R4 or the M3 simply.
I will get to the point. After a couple weeks of the ezflash V I have gone back to the M3 Simply, stitch a 2 gig card into the M3 and you have the ability to save a lot of files and manage them with ease, The only issue I have with the M3 simply is the ease at which I can loose the micro flash card.
I will use the EZ flash loaded up with less played games. But I have switched back to my M3 Simply Now with a 2 gig card all I can say is WOW.
BTW the ez 3 in one is cool if you want a backward way of loading one GBA game and having to UNLOAD it before playing another, all of this is done in mood shell...silly, The rumble is cool...the memory for opera is cool. it is well made...no Real time clock.
BTW the ezflash has no easy cheat system.
I don't now about you but I am waiting for the Neoflash MK VI for their cool motion/gyro control.
If you are looking at this stuff take it from a guy who has spent a fortune on this stuff.
Go out and get a M3 simply or an R4 card. then go to a place like super media store and get a 2 gigadata micro flash card for under $25.00.
and have fun with the super easy fully skinnable M3 ds Simply.
Sorry to rave on a bit I just felt like sharing my experience hopeful some of you will be able to avoid the pitfalls of the DS underworld.

Hey, Satangel, nice to see you here too.R4 DS!Â
atm the R4 is the best indeed. but it's not the perfect card. if some card with 100% Download Play compatibly is released, the R4 will be not half as good. And I want to see automatic DLDI-patching too!
LOL same
R4 DS is indeed the best flashcard atm, just very good, but I was kinda disappointed in the fact that some roms dont work on it (especially newer roms)

Question regarding the R4DS: I got this problem last week I got some Roms so I started testing them to see which ones were good... to play, soooooooooo I had to pull out the MicroSD several times, at the end, the MicroSD card would not stick in... so I had to patiently work it out until it clicked good and stayed inside the R4DS is this a known issue for this card? If not is there a way to fix this, cause next day we tried with my GF, she got it to stick in after 10 tries, I got desperate after 30 tries as it would NOT stick and stay in. I could hear the click noise but the card will just come out, any suggestions?

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying+1 -
