Sure they mean all cards but the one banned is R4 brand ONLY. Who cares about the details? What they state is what they mean which is R4 is banned. And by all means im totally not glad. Not everyone use the flashcarts for some stupidNeo_Ch!p said:First off when they say the ban R4 they indeed mean ALL type of flashcards. This will sham out any flashcard distributors publicly out of the UK and at most any packaged shipped with a flashcard will be labeled as "PC Controller" or "DS Accessory", thats of course using registered mail. Bulk shipments are the ones that will have issues bypassing checkpoints.
I'm glad Nintendo is getting serious about this and I root all the way but I'd say the damage is already done. Its been quite a few years since DS flahcards came out and now they're so dirt cheap anyone with half a peanut for a brain wouldn't think about not buying a "TOt4lly uBBER Fr33 DS ROMZ" card for $3 (I'm talking to you R4), this is especially true within children where low morals and low income give pulse to such things.
But what can I say.

Not everyone use the flashcarts for some stupidpiracyschool project like me. Some actually use it for homebrew applications and the making of them, who doesnt want to enjoy a flash game from a website made into a homebrew in ur R4 directly on ur DS! K, i shouldnt have used R4 for examples of homebrews...
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
fffffffffffft.
Most people just buy flashcarts to play NDS games on it because they can't afford to buy retail cartridges.

Makes Nintendo sound as homebrew friendly as Apple. As far as I am aware, the only legit way to code for the DS is to goe through Nintendo's dev program which will cost you upwards of £10,000 and even then, only if you are ALREADY a commercial success.QUOTE said:"Nintendo promotes and fosters game development and creativity, and strongly supports the game developers who legitimately create new and innovative applications,"
You doesn't seem to see my meaning and im not quoting what you wrote because is long and unnesecary. By also looking at how ignorant you write it im not going to discuss more than this.HouQuan1031 said:I hate people who cheat online...
As I said, they won't be able to stop international sellers and sites and the small packages will be impossible to filter as they pass through customs.cyberninja said:It's not just R4, the ruling applies to all devices that allow pirated games to be played on the Nintendo DS.

Not true.Utsuho Reiuji said:Oh and FYI, the DS Phat and DS Lite do not have any security precautions against flashcards. As far as I know, they never did. So how this ruling can apply to them is beyond me.
Only the DSi and it's enlarged cousin do.
