Who else feels lucky about SDHC support for R4 WITHOUT buying a new piece of hardware like the DS ONE SDHC ?

Thanks god i decided to buy the R4

don't take it for granted!

they said that's how it "should" be, so there's still a possibility that they can't do it.

I'd actually tend to think that they'll have to release a new version of the R4 (R4 v2?), a mere firmware replacement just sounds too good to be true!

I don't care about SDHC since i find them expensive.

Why buy a costly 4GB card when you can by two 2GB's for £10 saving
you a ton of money?

A 2GB card is enough for me. and if it turns out 2GB isn't
enough then i have a 1GB lying around getting un used.

But think of the future...
Maybe in one year a 8gb mSDHC costs as mutch as a 1gb...
And if a DS ONE user wants a bigger card he has to buy a new flashlinker, a DS ON SDHC, a R4 user has only to download the new software....

yes, he said it isnt 100% sure that it will be implementet, but even the idea....

That is the future, and no way is that going to happen.

and 1gb may cost same as a 32mb

Are you the one controlling the universe? If not, then anything can happen.

32 GB cards are in the works. By the time they hit mainstream I am sure 4 GB will be cheap.

I am excited about SDHC support, but I probably will not rush to buy a compatible MicroSDHC right away. At the moment I can fit a load of DS games, heap of GBA ones and a volume of mangas on my trusty 1 GB Kingston.

Don't forget that there's a major advantage with SDHC carts though: they are much faster (faster read/write speeds) which means there shouldn't be any more slowdown in game.

 

[A1enGongst3r]

Wouldn't the SDHC cards slow down games for the R4? I remember reading somewhere that the 4gb microSD is already pushing access rates on the R4, and have comparable lag (?) to the 1gb microSDs. I guess that R4 + SDHC + DS Lite = a good investment for a media player.

Edit: LOL Just as i wrote this, Costello addressed the problem. SDHC FTW.

why it wont happen?
In times the SD Format was new as a data medium 512mb card costed about 20€....
now you can get a 2gb for 12€....

 

[MacGnG]

awesome!

 

[mikagami]

Doesn't really affect me. I'm fine with 2GB... I don't fill my Simply up with junk I will never use.

 

[DarkAura]

Holy mother, SD cards are getting enourmous.

I only use about 1 to 1.5 gigs at a time. But then I am always taking stuff off and putting stuff on my R4, so a 4 GB SDHC will mean that I can keep everything on. Hooray!

 

[Sanoblue]

im glad to hear this... was wondering... especially since my computer is getting full of my backup games lol

cos SDHC cards have faster speeds? Meaning you can get 8gig in one SD card and not worry about slow speeds + changing SD cards.

 

[Doggy124]

Don't know why
When I use...
-1GB, it seem like there is lot of free space left.
-2GB, it alway too small, full all the time.
