So, I currently have an R4 (and a 3 in 1 expansion pack), but with some of the issues arising from the newer games (ie. FFCC: RoF) I'm looking to get me a new one. I've been looking into the Acekard R.P.G., and the CycloDS Evolution, but any other suggestions are welcome as well. It'll be my birthday soon, so I'll have a decent chunk of disposable income to work with. My question to you is this: what cart gives me the most bang for my buck, and is it compatible with the 3 in 1? Thanks very much for your opinion!

i'm going to have my hands on a supercard ds1 ($35 from dealextreme) and a cyclods evo (~$58 from rhs) at the end of next week. if money is no problem, you might as well get a cyclo, but if you want a comparison some time next week, just let me know

Since the OP lives in Canada, he can't order off of RHS. RHS doesn't ship Cyclos to Canada anymore. I know because I've asked them before.

I suggest the SCDS1 SDHC. It's 35 dollars, and it has Realtime Saving, Realtime Guide, Slow motion(You have to patch the games though), and a lot more. There's a huge amount of support from the Supercard team, and lots from the users.

if money is no object, another vote for cyclo
if it is, go SCSD1

also, the cyclo is very compatible with the 3in1. I haven't got one yet, gonna wait until I'm back from vacation before I order, but with gba exploader, it's pretty simple to run. No idea if SCSD1 is or isn't, I'm sure it is though.

the cyclo, supercard, and rpg are all great choices, you cant go wrong with either one of em, i personally own an acekard and its awsome, and the 3-in-1 is a plug n play for the acekard, no patching or anything for rumble, or gba, just a single click of the a/b button

Yeah, I've been to those sites, it's just that (no offense or anything) I like to here the reason behind the opinion. Sorry for the trouble.

EDIT: Well, I've decided on the Acekard RPG. Thanks for everyone's help and opinions! They definitely helped make the choice easier.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ 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 @ 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 @ 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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ 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 @ 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
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
