Official GBAtemp Supercard MiniSD review online!

[DrKupo]

Certain reviewers have bias, just like weaponx has bias, though not as extreme.

I feel that some points of the comparasion were chosen just so the m3 could look better. How the patching software looks is not important at ALL and shouldn't even be part of the review The only time the patching software should be mentioned in the review is if it's unstable

This supercard seemed pretty good, but they talk about low battery life, now is the m3 mini sd better in that area? Also, if I get one, I would mainly use it for moonshell and probably some gba games and ds ones too, is it a good choice to go with the supercard minisd or the m3 version?

It's a simple choice really, read the reviews see which cart has all the features you care about most then buy that cart .

 

[junker]

yeah, what MC DUI said^ also, moonshell support is the same for both(i think), and xboxed(i think) made a battery life test thread for the m3 minis sd somewhere here in nds forums.

Yes, but.... no mention of the core question about the battery life here

. So, is it better?

Battery life

SC MiniSD > SC SD > SC CF ??

I noticed in one of the m3 reviews it's stated that games run for 10-12 hours on a battery charge. The pictures show an old style DS. In my experience this is simply untrue when running DS games, with an original game like mario64 inserted only with the gba slot clear I get @5-6 hours on a single charge (if i'm lucky). I have two original DS's in my family and both are the same battery wise.... where did this 10-12 hours come from ???

5 1/2 hours if on an old style DS sounds like it has no extra battery drainage at all.

 

[bollocks]

out of the M3 team's collective arse, I assume.

That might have been my review - my old style DS was a brand new replacement from Nintendo, so the battery is still holding a "full" charge.

Hmm.. my SC MiniSD box only has text in chinese.

 

[Ettan]

This cart is actually a good choice, obviously not the best..

How long until an EZ4 review?

How long until an EZ4 review?

It's coming, our reviewer (Dirtie if I'm not mistaken) is receiving it either today or tomorrow, and then needs a few days for the review. So in short, we're working on getting it up A.S.A.P!

Nice review, covered everything one could ask

.

@ Qrayzie, does the EZ-Flash 4 stick out of a DS Lite or is the EZ4 the same as the EZ4 Lite?

 

[Lily]

The EZ-Flash 4 does indeed stick out of the Lite by a small amount. Apparently they are working on an EZ4 Lite that will be flush with the Lite, but I haven't heard anything about it recently.

 

[Bitbyte]

Hmm.. thought so.. But I'm still wondering why Winsunx is calling the regular EZ-Flash 4 an EZ-Flash 4 Lite..

Just forget it, it's a mistake on their behalf.

I don't know who they are, but they had the cheapest price when considering shipping. Only thing is the superpass was 20 and the ezpass is 26 which is more then anywhere else. Oh well, its nice not to get hit with huge shipping charges for once.
