Hey folks!
I haven't messed with flash carts since I bought an original R4 back in 2007. I've tried looking over the GBA temp wiki as well as a few of the cart websites, but am afraid I still find myself a bit in the dark. I currently own a New 3DS with (presumably) 9.8 firmware. I'd like to get a flash cart that works with both Original DS and 3DS games, on my N3DS, with minimal issue/effort (I think I saw some required workarounds to work on the N3DS). If necessary, I don't guess it'd be the worst thing to have to get two carts, one for DS and one for 3DS, if such is necessary.
Another question I've had is, would a flash cart work properly with the GenVI Pokemon games? I've read they use a different save method than most other games, and I wanted to make sure they were compatible with flash carts.
Finally, with the glut of resellers out there, I was hoping to get recommendations on the cheapest legit sites to purchase from. I've seen a *lot* of disparity in device pricing from site to site, and want to make sure I'm making an informed purchase, since some of these things get pretty freaking expensive.
In summary, my needs:
- Recommendation of a flashcart compatible with N3DS 9.8+
- Recommendation of flash carts for DS/3DS games as applicable
- Advice on where to shop for the best deal
- Any other info I'm too noob on the subject to know I don't know
I greatly appreciate your time and assistance!
