Hacking Post your questions about which flashcart to buy

[anaxs]

yeh u can suggest a site

 

[WeakNiZ]

Hahah

I wanted to get suggested, not suggest

Dealextreme.com is almost always the most competitive. Unfortunately they have zero integrity and will gladly sell you a fake if your stupid enough to buy it. Always read the description and the reviews of each product as you will find they sell both the real and fake versions of a lot of cards.

Should you decide to purchase from there, give me a PM so I can give you my referral link which will make me a couple of cents and cost you nothing

I'm looking for a new flashcard. My current one is an old R4 which has worked great for me so far but I want to upgrade to SDHC cards which the old R4 can't support. I want a card that's simple and easy to use. Also, a card that will last for a long time unlike the R4 which basically died this year. oh and DSi support would be nice. So does anyone have any suggestions?

I suggest Acekard2i or M3i Zero.

get the acekard2i. really chead on DX.

shouldn this thread be stickied? or maybe make it stand out? there are lots of people not reading this, and they are creating their own threads asking.

I'm not sure if I'd say DX has zero integrity. They state exactly what it is, if you are dumb enough to buy it, then it is your fault. I see retailers such as GameByGame who also have fake R4's for sale, and I don't question their integrity. The real problem are the ones that ship out fakes when you order real ones.

Perhaps integrity wasn't the right word. My point was they will more than happily sell you a fake.

Nope, because if it was stickied it would just end up being ignored as all stickies generally are - that is the law of the land =/

Go with the M3i Zero.
Superb card, in all aspects.
And it has Sakura, which is a big plus.
I bought it from here:

http://www.colourful-zone.com/Store/produc...products_id=328

I've never had any problems with that webshop. They ship fast and to every country in the world.

I"m going to buy a DSi soon and as such, will probably end up with a firmware version 1.4 system; all I really want is...

- Full functionality with 1.4

- And this is a long shot... but anything that will connect Diamond/Pearl/Platinum to Pokemon Battle Revolution for the
Wii. I know the CycloDS was the only card that could do it with DS Lites, but can any of these newer cards do it?

Thanks in advance for any help! = )

BUMP

There are no DSi compatible flashcarts that support Wii Connectivity as of now.

pretty sure that none of the flashcarts can (Besides the cyclo) and for the 1st one, thats too vague because most flashcarts now have a fix

AKAIO 1.5 has Wii connectivity. So at the moment there are no DSi compatable fladhcarts (M3i might) but there will be soon,

 

[mcsdoode]

Thanks for the info guys =)

EDIT: Wait a second.... there's an AKAIO 1.5 firmware out? I thought the team stopped after 1.4 ( T.T) Don't play with my emotions! xD

Alright, so here's the lowdown: I used to have a DS Lite and an M3 Lite, but I think it was stolen when my brother had a party. Yeah, I'm kinda pissed, but my brother reimbursed me. Anyway, so now I'm in the market again for a new flash cart. I'm probably going to go for a used DS Lite again, but I don't know which flash cart to go for. Are they all pretty much the same, minus a few features here and there? When I got my first flash cart, Slot 1 carts weren't out yet, but I take it they're the standard now?

Also, is WiFi play a problem at all with flash carts? And can you play GBA games on a Slot 1 cart? I know they can't normally run them, but can you emulate them or anything?

First off, no gba games on slot 1. Period. Second, there is a group of flashcards which are considered "good". These all are pretty much the same, differing in some minor features, price and gui. I personally recommend you look into the following cards:

Itouch
Acekard 2
Supercard DS One
Cyclo DS
M3 Real
EZ Flash V

and read up on some reviews. My personal favourite is the Acekard 2, as it is cheap and frequently updated thanks to AKAIO although it lacks some of the features of the top tier cards like the cyclo, such as real time save and guide. All the above listed cards have near perfect compatabilty so that is not a issue.

Hi I'm fairly new to this and am getting a DSi from dave and busters. (yes i actually got that many tickets) i was wondering which card would be the best:

I would love for it to be able to play GBA games but from what ive read thats not possible...yet?
rts is a plus but not necessary
needs to be upgradeable so that dsi firmware updates arent a problem
other than those i just want it to work well and not be flimsy

any help is really appreciated.

ps. are there any that can play dsi roms? i thought i remember reading there weren't any but once again im new to this and am not sure

 

[benjaminlibl]

AK2i. Doesn't have real time save. Can get past firmware updates, as has been proven already. And not expensive in comparison.

 

[link575]

Thanks. I've heard a lot about ak2i and was very close to getting it but then read about ezflash vi. Are they essentially the same quality and ability wise, is one better than the other or do they both offer different pros and cons

Acekard, because of a great support in the community.
Ezflash, I like it because of the side loading sd slot, but the M3i0's have that also.
