Hacking M3 Real vs CycloDS

[budrow66]

Well I use the Cyclo and Vulpes uses a M3Real. The major differance in my mind is the battery life. My Cyclo and 3 in 1 last much longer than his M3Real and GBA Expansion and he has the bigger battery.
Also the time it takes M3 to roll out new updates can take some time. Since I have had my Cyclo only 2 games didn't work and they got added on an update no more than 3 days later.
As far as all the fetures I rarely use RTS or Ingame txt reader so not selling points to me.
Now the GBA support. It is true the 3 in 1 does not have RTC but it does have Nor. Every GBA game I have ever played always runs better in Nor. I also have never lost a save in GBA. Vulpes on the other hand will loose certian save files and some just will not save at all...
I know this sounds a little fan boy but this is my personal opinion after owning and useing both cards I prefer the Cyclo but right under it is M3Real...
Hope it helps.

Why are you comparing M3 real and Cyclo....
Everybody knows that Cyclo is the best...

That's not so much the case anymore with M3 Sakura and the addition of RTS to the M3 Real. Plus it's about $20 cheaper. It's getting highly debatable.

What a nice contribution to a debate

In terms of quality and overall, the whole feeling that is about CycloDS, it's still superior cart, but when you look at the price, and what you get for it....I must say that I'd pick M3 Real over CycloDS..

PharaohsVizier put it very nicely, Sakura is awfully attractive GUI!

Well i aint owned a CycloDS but i got a m3 real and from the sounds of what each does i would still went with the m3 real just cause it has the gba exp,sakura,rts on gba and cheats and the price is way lower.

So IMO M3 Real > CycloDS and maybe in the furture M3 will add the extra features that CycloDs has and it will boost the m3 real into 1st place with others xD

I really think it won't be too much longer that the CycloDS will be at the top of the flash carts. Anymore the lower priced carts are getting features of the higher end carts (see Acekard2 and more recently iTouchDS with the addition of RTS). Soon it'll be like HDTV's: you can't go wrong with whatever you choose!

Acekard2 has nothing, and I'm pretty sure you won't be seeing advanced features on it as the official team can't even be bothered to fix non working roms.

When was the last official update on it ?
