No need to bash it just yet. Give it a fair shot like every other cart, once we've deemed it good or bad, THEN go flame it. There are definitely people who have HIGH expectations for the cart. And I don't mean fanboys.
The thing that irks me about it is all the people who are like "OMG! EX4!!" when we know even less about it than we do the Supercard DSTWO. Also, there hasn't really been a concrete release date for that one either has there? Don't see how people can call out the Supercard DSTwo and not the EX4 (I mean, they barely had a website, and not even that anymore).
I'm not sure where you've been, but you could say we know quite a bit about the EX4, we know how it looks like, the packaging, there's videos on how the GBA and the menu runs, there's a LOT of information. You can even download the software. The Supercard DS TWO is somewhat shrouded in mystery, but what we know is from extrapolation of their work on EOS for the Supercard DS ONE. In terms of actual released information, EX4 has a lot more, we just seem to have a firmer grasp of the Supercard DS TWO because we've seen some of the previous products and wild fantasies about the list of features.
EX4 doesn't have an exact date, but it is already manufactured I believe, and there are no problems or anything. I THINK they are actually stalling the release dates so review samples can get out, and reviews can be written first. Which again seems to SCREAM that the team is confident about their product. Unlike the SCDS2 where the release date is far off, and we really see nothing from it, I know a full working sample of the EX4 is already packaged and shipped, I'm expecting to receive it on Monday.
Now I'm not saying the EX4 is good, or comparable to the Supercard, but it makes me feel the same way you feel when people think the EX4 is the greatest, I too feel it is a little unfair to have people calling the EX4 trash before anything is really known about it. Funny how two carts that are still unreleased can have such vast differences in opinion. The Supercard DS TWO and the EX4 share almost identical feature sets, and the Supercard DS TWO is being hailed as the greatest cart in existence while the EX4 is a piece of trash. Again I'm just trying to level the playing field here. I'm actually quite excited for the release of the Supercard DS TWO as well, I REALLY want to compare it side by side.
