i have only had one save problem with ds-x (pokemon ranger) and have you got a acekard yet?? ( im not a fanboy) you never knwo till you get the acekard all games have not been tested so you dont know about 100%??    gbatemp review acekard 7.5 ds-x 9.5??? hmm and how can you say ds-x will never be 100% how do you know ??? you cant say thing like that if there no information to back it up.
You raise some good points.
1.a I'm happy you haven't encounted any of the other problem games (Nintendogs Lab, Madagascar, Cocoto - Kart Racer,Brain Age etc,...I stopped reading at rom 400 but I'll assume there are others
) Hopefully DS-X will fix them soon, before you get round to playing them. Last update was over a month ago(?) so another patch is long overdue.
1b As I stated in my post...not yet. Mainly because I'm more than happy playing Animal Crossing on my original EZ4 lite whilst waiting for the authorised Acekard sellers to get on board. (Have you tried Animal Crossing on your DS-X ? I recommend it! )
2. You can be SURE that all roms will work on an Acekard thanks to AKFS, since it's a perfect simulation of an original cartridge.
It's been out in China for a while now and extensively tested, plus the DS-X team/fanboys would have pounced if even one rom failed to work! Besides all that you can trust that GBAtemp would have posted a big banner on the opening page if they'd come across one, so we'd all be warned to avoid Acekard.
3. From experience I know not to trust one review...but to do the research myself. I bought an EZ4lite instead of a G6lite and I know everytime I watch SouthPark on my DS that I made the right choice for me. Those episodes are on top of the 30+ DS games that I play on my measly 1 GB SD card!)
Let me ask you this...would you give your DS-X 9.5? Even now with a software update that came more than 3 weeks after the review? Give me 100% compatability any day. I'm always looking at the future. Even now I'd say Acekard beats DS-X and I haven't even seen the new Acekard GUI.
4. I know that DS-X can never achieve 100%, because of the nature of it's design. M3,G6, EZ4 etc have been around for years longer than DS-X and even they couldn't do it. Acekard even with it's rushed launch got it right straight away! All they have to do it work on the trimmings, not try and patch up a flawed concept.
Anywayz happy gaming.
PS- Apologise for rant/errors, 5.45am here and I've been playing WOW 2 days straight! (Finally got my level 60 Ice Mage!!!!
)
