Well I just got an r4 and I found a forum for R4's, turns out the forum was completely dead since about March. Anyways, that forum linked here a lot so I just signed up here o_o. Pretty active forums

But anyway, welcome to GBAtemp!!!
tattar8 said:ALL cards in existence will work on the DS lite. The R4 is bad because it's creator team has disbanded, there are no updates fo new games, and 99.99999999999% of the ones currently sold are fake clones.
Why? If you want to find out whether yours is a fake post pictures here. If you want to get a real one, don't even bother. Get one of the actively supported carts, I recommend the Acekard 2i.lastRegret said:tattar8 said:ALL cards in existence will work on the DS lite.

Yeah I sort of figured that out. Anyways can somebody link me to the guide for finding real R4s and clones? I used the search but I only got useless results.![]()

tattar8 said:Well, I'm impressed. You managed to find a real R4. But the truth is, you're going to have a real hard time playing new games on it. The R4 team has disbanded like I said before, and you'll save yourself many woes by getting an Acekard.
Then you can boast to your friends when only you can play the latest game![]()

cosmiccow said:Ah well, I'm still happy with my old rusty R4. Using it since years.
Sure, this year I had to wait for patches for one or two roms and installed YSMenu. But it's still doing it's job alright.
Sure.. when I had to buy another flashcard today, it would be a newer card..

Forget DSTT, it's slowly losing updates too. My suggestion: Get an acekard 2i. Install AKAIO. Normmatt is one of the most dedicated firmware programmers out there. FIxes for games are usually released within days
Do they know Paypal? You can use your paypal account on dealextreme. And paypal has insurancelastRegret said:tattar8 said:lastRegret said:playallday said:Check out YSMenu. You might get a little more life out of that thing.
