Hacking Best slot2 to work with R4 DS?

[Rayder]

And has the Supercard SD really such low GBA compat?

It will "play" most GBA games (90%), there is just nasty slowdown in many of them. They used slow memory in it. Therefore, it sucks for GBA gaming. I have one and wished I would have went with the M3.

If you want SD, you'll need to buy an M3 SD for the best of everything. It has stellar GBA (probably not 100%, but not very far from it), browser compatibility and external memory (SD, obviously).

No other cards fit your description. The supercard SD GBA isn't as bad as some people say it is, but its definitely not up there with the others.

K, this seems like a nice one

Is it this one?

Could U give me a few sites where I could buy that flashcard, cuz I dont find one...

And I have a DS Lite, but it doesnt matter if it sticks out to much...

Completely off track to say that the Supercard has good GBA compatibility. It does have the rest however (browser, external memory), and it works fine with the R4.

It works with my Golden Sun 2 anyway so I'm happy.

I dont want the 3in1 cuz I want external memory...

I edited my openingspost so its all a bit more clear what I want.

So should I pick the M3 or the Supercard SD?
And which M3?
Plz reply with a review of GBATemp and maybe a site to buy one .

The EZ-Flash 3-in-1 uses the same external memory that the R4 uses.

Supercard probably has the worst GBA support available, so don't get one for playing GBA games.

If you are going to get an M3, don't get the professional. It has greatly reduced GBA capabilities. The M3 Lite is the only one that will fit flush in a DS lite. It usually also comes with a GBA sized shall so you can use it in an original DS, but it isn't always included, so email the store about it if they don't say and it matters to you. The M3 miniSD will fit a GBA or an original DS. The M3 SD is big, it sticks out of the original DS.

I mean external memory for the Slot2, so not the same as my Slot1.

So the M3 Lite is the flashcard I need?
I can live with microSD, but the price is a little above my standard....
And the GBA compat is good?
And does the browser work on the M3 Lite?


Could U post a site where to buy it apart?
And maybe even a Dutch site?

Tnx in adv.

The GBA compatibly is, if not perfect, near perfect. I never had any problems with it. I had to use a patch on the NES classics though. And the menu messes some games up (I mean the ingame menu in which you can use real time save and soft reset).
The browser works with it too. Just put the hacked browser on your R4, put the M3 Lite in Slot 2 (you don't need a MicroSD for this) and it works flawlessly.

I bought it from worldmodding.nl. Atm you can buy a M3 Lite Perfect for 60 euros. If you want, you can go to the guy who sells them in Eindhoven.

Edit: oh, and you get 5 Lite cases and one white DS / GBA one.

Did someone recommend the EZ-Flash IV?
I've heard it's pretty good...

[Satangel]

Now the EZ IV draw my attention too...
Its cheap, very good GBA support, and it uses external memory

Does the Opera browser work on it in combo with the R4 DS?

Yes

[Satangel]

I still got some questions regarding the EZ IV:

- Whats the difference between the EZ IV and the EZ IV Lite?

- Is there a possibility to play games on the EZ IV with a realtime clock, like Pokemon?

- Does anyone know a good site with tuts of the EZ IV?

- Does the EZ IV also fit perfectly in the regular GBA, and will the GBA games work on it?


Tnx in adv.

1. EZIV uses miniSD, and EZIV Lite uses microSD (IIRC).

2. No real time clock at all on the EZIV. To be more specific, you can patch a game to allow real time clock games to work - however the real time clock function is removed and there is only one time of day which you can patch (I think).

3. Visit the sosuke forums (Unofficial EZ Forums - wait a bit and I'll find it)

4. EZIV miniSD does, the Lite version does not. Yes it will fit in a regular GBA, and GBA games will work on it.

Damn, thanks alot 4saken!

I think I'm gonna buy the EZ IV + a Kingston miniSD 1 GB now

Its under my price range, and will work good

Tnx everybody!

One thing you should know about the EZ-4 (and all of its variants) is that you can only have up to 80 games total on the memory card at once due to a limitation in the way it handles the file system.

This is not necessarily a problem, but it's something you should know about before you get the cart and a big memory card.
