well i'd say the best 'R4' out now is the R4i Gold/R4iDSN since it supports WOOD firmware and their firmware is constantly updated to support the latest games.
anyway here is a review by RoMee and here is the R4i Gold Hands-on Impressions by Another World

R4 is NOT a generic term for flashcard. That said, you probably don't want to get an R4.
At worst, you're getting an unsupported card that has been put out by a team that ripped off someone else' hardware and the R4 name.
At best, you're getting a 3rd Party supported card that has been put out by a team that ripped off someone else' hardware and the R4 name.
I would suggest an Acekard2i (basic card) or SuperCard DSTwo (has SNES/GBA emulator) or maybe waiting for the CycloDS iEvolution (supposedly works in DSi Mode), but be warned that team is notorious for being expensive and hasn't really updated their current cards much lately.
Also, I just noticed you asked about RHS...
I would recommend not buying from them because they have knowingly sold fake AceKards as real ones, then lied to customers about them being real, then lied again saying that Team AceKard was going to release a fix for it.
There are others here who will say RHS is fine, but why support a shop that has lied to the customers?

i agree but maybe he wants a cart that supports WOOD since it does get more frequent updates than AKAIO.twiztidsinz said:
and besides if you read his signature , it does say that he owns a Supercard DSTwo and an Acekard

I agree with the above comment about the R4i Gold. It is Wood compatible so go with that one.

Lightake have the R4i Gold Wood compatible , but now it's Christmas period , the free Airmail shipping is very slow . Of course you'll get it in time if you pay for the UPS / DHL shipping fee.
Ok so I'm thinking about ordering from Lightake but just to make sure this thing probably my best bet at getting a Flashcard thats Wood right? Or is there something else out there...

@
TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
