Currently, i have an original R4 that i've had for about 2 years now.
I want to buy a slot 2 expansion, mostly to play GBA games, but i've been having a little problem finding the right thing.
Basically, what i want is something that will play GBA roms/homebrew, and function as a RAM expansion pack for the DS.
Rumble support is not necessary, but if it is included, it would be a nice addition.
So far, the only 2 things i've come accross are the EZ Flash V 3 in 1 expansion and the M3 GBA expansion.
I have read up on the EZ Flash loads, and found that it does everything i want, and will work with my R4.
The only problem i have is that the only place i can find that sells the DS Phat version, and ships to UK at a decent price is Dealextreme: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.15778
I have ordered one from them, and tried to be patient, but after several weeks, it is still out of stock.
I have looked into the M3 GBA expansion, but i'm not entirely sure about it.
Does it do both GBA and extra RAM?
will it work with my R4?
if so, then my problem is solved.
if not, will i be able to open up an EZ Flash 3-in-1 DS Lite version, and put the insides into one of these M3 replacement shells ?
If anyone can answer any of these questions, or link me to somewhere that sells the EZ Flash 3-in-1 for DS Phat and ships to the UK at a decent price, help would be very much appreciated.
sorry for the long post.
