Moved to correct section, and you'll probably get your answer way faster there!

Runs fine here on my imported DSi LL which is basically the same.

Put it this way: The only difference between the DSi and the XL is the screen.

not sure. why don't you just buy ak2i? (it's far BETTER than R4i-SDHC + akAIO)

whats the difference with the ak2i? my r4i has neva failed me yet
is the ak2i just a different card but same features?

"Yet" being the operative word here.
Anything R4 now is a failcard; they're all clones, so the card quality is bad, support will be tacky and will soon stop altogether.

i see....
so what do you suggest i get to replace it and it has to be compatable with my future dsi xl...
ak2i?

does it play ds back ups and emulators/homebrew etc?

The idea is the same as the R4, just the AK2i's compatibility and features are infinitely better
