Hi everyone!! Nice site! I started this thread because I have a problem. Recently I got an Acekard 2i, it's very very cool and cheap card. But, now I want to play old gba games on my DS. I know that Acekard flashcards cannot play gba games, and my question is: what gba expansion pack should I get? Because I live in Greece, and the only shop which have flashcards give me two options: Super Card Mini SD or M3 GBA Expansion Pack?. I would like to say that the card I am going to buy I want it only for playing all gba games without problems, nothing much.

Thanks for help!

The best one is EZ-Flash 3in1, and you can order it from several European or worldwide shops.

You just need one microSD card in your Acekard 2i, and copy your gba roms there.

Yes I know that EZ-Flash is the best gba expansion, but I cannot buy from other country, and that's why I want one of these two gba packs that we have in my country.
What are the problems that I 'll have with these two cards (Super Card Mini SD or M3 GBA Expansion Pack)? and EZ-Flash won't have these problems?
Thanks for reply btw!

Supercards do not have good GBA compatibility and that one is not an expansion pack but a standalone cart (not that it makes any difference to the lack of compatibility) which means it is m3 time. I am not sure what level of third party support they have these days though so you might want to read up a bit.

As for other countries are customs in Greece that keen on flash cards nowadays (it is about the only reason I can think of for the reluctance)?

The only reason is the payment method, anwz. Thanks for help. That means that EZ-Flash 3in1 is the best of the best option to play gba games on ds right? I have the first DS also, and I cannot find where to buy EZ-Flash 3in1 fat. :/

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii

    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.

    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
