Hacking Complete newbie, please help me pick a card !

[Matalien]

Okay, I've read lots of threads/faqs/guides/reviews and I still can't decide which card I should buy. Plus it looks like some info is 2 years old, some isn't, so it's hard to get a clear picture of what options I have.

Here are the features I want to have on my card:

- 100%ds roms compatibility (of course

)
- homebrew compatibility (I've heard there's Lode runner !!!)
- Real time save
- multimedia (movies !)
- possibility to play GBA games (only possible by adding a slot 2 card if I understood correctly ?).

Would be nice to have :

-slow motion
-sleep support (I haven't seen it anywhere... might be a silly question but is it supported ? I tend to use it a lot on my DS)
-cheap would be great but I don't think i'll have that

So I was thinking about getting a CycloDS, and then, someday, some expansion pack for GBA games (by the way, which one ? ). But I'm not sure I have the most up to date info about what's available now...
Thanks for the help !

M3 ds real perfect bundle

For the about same price you can get an M3i Zero + EZ Flash 3-in-1 at many places.

Yes but the Perfect bundle has GBA Cheats and GBA RTS where as M3i Zero + Ez 3in1 doesn't. The M3i has everything there but it's Homebrew is not the best, its good though. I find the Supercard to have better homebrew support and more stable RTS & Slow motion. It can also play the new Pokemon. Although I haven't personally tested this as I don't like Pokemon.

I would recommend Supercard DSONEi.

+1
Not sure why anyone would recommend mix-match combo

Without question, if one was to buy an M3Real/iZero and wanted a Slot-2 'companion', then the M3 GBA Expansion is the smart choice....more advantages over 3in1 - RTC feature, for one (Pokemon).

I disagree on Supercard though = crap gui will never win me over.

acekard2 with AKAIO along with an ezflash 3in1 works with everythin and gba games, updates often

I like the new EOS which is I why I generally recommend Supercard.

The M3 only has bad homebrew support on Sakura, on Touchpod it has near perfect compatibility.

The Supercard DSONEi's firmware isn't the best though (even with the new EOS), and the M3 is supposed to be getting an update for the new pokemon game as well.

That doesn't do RTS, or Slow Motion.
