Hacking G6 Real...any cons?

[scandal_uk]

This is right. After all, it only takes a mere mouse drag and drop to add/delete/swap games anyhow. I.e. a few seconds really. I don't understand why most people seem to prefer an SD card based flash card. 1 or 2G of inbuilt ram is faster, simpler, and more reliable.

That's it exactly - it's the main reason I prefer the G6 Lite and the G6DS.

Some people just see that the others are cheap and may use an SD card they already have, but remember - you get what you pay for...

Thanks for the help guys. Now another question...does anyone know where I can buy (another) G6DS real (1gb)? It looks like everyone is sold out. Thanks.

Yeah, I tried to get a new one but everywhere's sold out. My sis told me that people have been buying Cyclos since g6 real has been out of stock :\

I've been told by a shop owner that the G6 REAL is no longer in production.

might be due to the part shortages as some people have mentioned, i dunno.

But the M3 REAL is definitely an economically better product for them to sell.

Are you serious?! damn, there goes my hopes for getting a replacement :\ Oh well...r4,cyclo or m3, here I come...

Biggest problem:
You need to soft reset each time you want to save.
If not done properly, you can easily get corrupted files.

Wow, is that true? That might explain why mine doesn't save sometimes. It's very fustrating.

I've been wondering about the lack of G6Reals for sale too. I checked the official website, went to the official retailers. All but 3 don't even have the G6Real listed, and the 3 that do are out of stock (one site says "in stock Dec 2007").

I was really interested in this card since GBAtemp gave it a Golden Award and the fact that you don't need a memory card for it.

Whaaaaat? Are you sure this is true? Why is it always that some guy who never posts here before suddenly pops out and bashes a flash card?
