The R4 doesn't support microSDHC memorycards. The largest microSD's you're able to use with it are 2GB ones..

The R4 does not support SDHC (> 4GB, usually 2GB).

You should've known that when you bought it...

(Main reason why the R4 is such an outdated but still overpriced card)

Thats a fake R4 and a firmware update in September will brick your DS. So buy a M3 Real!

Well um like everyone said, sadly R4DS doesn't take any SDHC cards. I read somewhere that it does take any 4GB card that isn't SDHC, but apparently the game plays kinda choppy, and I haven't seen any of those cards floating around. ._.
In any case, if you want a flashcard that does take SDHC cards, I'm guessing an M3 Real, Cyclo DS or DSTT would be the best choices for such.

Yeah, the M3 Real has M3 Sakura.
Buy it, you won't regret it.

Well Ill bet my DS there will be a way around this. Everything can be hacked. I had no Idea I had a Fake one until the other day but it works and I have a shit load of media and games and music on it. I really hope someone fixes this cause i dont make enough to get a new R4 or DS for that matter. Fingers crossed

i spoke to a few people who run retail outlets who in turn talk to the r4 distributors and r4 reps. they told me that no one has heard of any such firmware update that will brick r4 clones. there has been no official announcement to any distributor or warnings of any kind. what you are all so scared about is a bit of internet hype posted on a chinese forum and blown way out of control by all of the misinformed kids who then pass on the information as fact.

there will be no firmware update on sept 15th.

enjoy your clone if you like it =)

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
