    The blue card is basically a clone of the R4I Gold right, so would it be able to run emulators? Is there any special way I would need to set up the Card?

    Enlighten me? Install actual emulators through cia files or are you talking about the VC games?

    IMOP you're never going to get snes and gba games working properly on any r4 card other then the dstwo. The reason the dstwo is the exception is that it has a cpu built into the card allowing it to do all the work and the 3ds / dsi just has to output it

    Well actually I just wanted to play Final Fantasy 4 and Fire Emblem, so I don't think those will be high performance games or that performance will really matter at all

    If you mean the person who mentioned installing cia files of emulators, I did look into it. I posted the reply so I could get confirmation as to whether or not that was actually what he was referring to. I apologize if I seem lazy or ungrateful. This community is amazing and I really do appreciate it and all the help I've gotten from its members. I've been in the Wii, PS3, and DS home brew scenes but never in their infancy so I'm just not used to information being so scattered around.

    Yeah I figured that much. Really sad too, because I looked around a lot for a Supercard DSTWO just so I can play SNES and GBA games on the go.

    If the Supercard + thing turns out to actually be true then I may get one just for emulation purposes.
