Hacking How worth it is an EZ Flash IV compared to a Supercard SD

[bigChungus]

In Australia (where I'm from) a EZ Flash IV costs between $60-$80 (including shipping) depending on where you buy it from, but you can buy a Supercard SDmini for around $18 on ebay. I've heard the Supercard has some slowdown issues though, can anyone tell me how pervasive they are or direct me to a proper compatibility list (google searches only give me compatibility for the Supercard DSTWO). If it issues are that bad, does anyone have a better alternative to Supercard without shelling out for a EZ4?

i found some supercard at 12$ on ebay, for this little money you wouldn't lose alot.

EZ Flash IV is better but it's quite expensive.

woa, you can't really get them cheaper? not even from china websites? or older models like the ez iv MINI sd off ebay?
it's really worth, but not 80 bucks worth IMHO.. i think i paid for my ez iv 30 or 40 bucks i don't remember but it was years ago and i bought it along with other stuff

sadly i don't own a supercard... to tell you about compatibility, i do know some gbatempers own one but i don't remember who..

maybe wait for the ez flash omega to be in stocks? since it's the new card...

Should probably mention these prices are in Australian Dollars, in USD (but still including shipping) the cheapest EZ4 was $47 and the most expensive was $63

Get the EZ Flash Omega if the prices won't be much different from the EZ Flash IV Reform. It's a new cart.

Supercard slowdown is real, but only for a handful of games. Anything that's turn based, or simple games won't be affected. Can't beat the price for a supercard right now though.

Wow, i didn't know that EZ Flash was still developping gba flashcarts, specially in 2018.

This is their last one, though. That's why it's called the EZ Flash Omega.
