iTouchDS first impressions

[shakirmoledina]

beautiful card... nice menu and ideas (about favorites)
Plus i hope it's actually cheap and has many features and good compatibility (obviously with some more firmwares)

Lost me after build quality. Thought the UI was gonna look nice too since they're working on Sakura which looks friggin awesome, but not this. Doesn't really have anything that would catch my eye from the other budget carts.

Any info on when its coming out and how much its gonna cost? please

The box it comes in is tiny and houses the card as well as a microSD reader. When I unboxed the card the first thing I noticed when I held it was the poor build quality. The flimsy plastic sticks out like a sore thumb if you’ve handled other flashcards like the DSTT or EZ-Flash V. There are clips on the side much like the M3 Real and G6 Real and the card creaks when you press it. It does hold together however and it fits in the DS fine. The microSD slot is spring-loaded.

Well like you said, its on the "Cheaper" side. You get what you paid for.

i dont see how its cheap at ozmodchips there $55AUD with $15AUD shipping = £33GBP or $66USD
thats nearly twice as much as a scdsone at dealextreme = $34.00 with free shipping

you really cant compare prices of different cards from different stores. the prices can vary wildly from store to store on the same card. ive seen like a $30 price difference on the M3 Real.

Hmm, does this support SDHC?
Looks cute but the menu looks like they just dont have places to put the things. Like rom selection, the info appears on the top left part of the upper screen?? So i have to look down and up when selecting roms?

The main menu looks cool, i wish it will be skinnable, and the motions customizable...

Yeah, i think its still pretty much the same as other existing carts.

 

[wilddenim]

Darn, no flat battery! With the red light, I've been expecting for it to switch off...Darn.

Anyway, it look pretty excellent and very clean! The colours is what I would have picked if I make my own flashcart - it is easy on eyes and clean.

Looking forward to the full review.

Hm considering the fact that I don't usually spend too much time in the menu, nor want to, this is definitely not the card for me. Not only does it have all those silly (maybe nice looking) transition effects like the button sliding that slow things down but it's also laggy. If they don't fix the laginess I think only people that do no research on stuff they're getting will buy it. The favorites feature is nice but that's it.

 

[BurlyEd]

I bought an M3 Real with GBA pack.
I love the GBA pack, but hate the little tabs that USED to be ON on the M3 - they are now all somewhere on the floor.
I will never buy another device with those tabs.
SCREW IT (please).
no iTouch for me!

It's already out in some online stores, like Consolsesource and Ozmodchips.

altornHmm, does this support SDHC?

Yes, more info on their site.

 

[skulkid]

thanks Torrunt

Sounds pretty good for a budget cart. The cart itself looks cheaply made as was stated.

The videos appear to have been deleted by the way.

 

[Urza]

I have 2 on hand right now, and I don't see how it is "cheaply made", it is pretty much the same as the M3DS Real and AceKard 2 if you ask me.

Neither of which are particularly sturdy carts (ak2 less so than the M3 Real).

 

[cupajoe]

So, nobody cares about the odd name?

So, nobody cares about the odd name?

Chinese manufacturers naming a product after an already existing product that it isn't?

WOW WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED

 

[SleepingDragon]

The gui interface looks pretty sharp, but I'm still partial to the Cyclo. I look forward to reading the upcoming review of the card.

 

[heyyouguys]

When is the review coming out?
