So ive loaded my R4 card with games.
Discovered there seems to be a 300 game limit that can be accessed...
Any way around this with folders or something?
Thanks.

27 folders from # to Z will solve that

Sorry if you saw this already but you're the only hope I got, @Shadow#1 .

I have done what you said (created 27 folders from # - Z) and put my games (less than 300 in each folder) into them (ie. metroid into the "M" folder). I still run into the same issue. Please help if you can. If you can't, that's okay, just let me know. Thanks :)

What is the URL listed on the cart and what kernel are you running?

There is no hope for the OP it's a lost cause
If the OP is running the stock kernel for say an R4i-SDHC (or the millions of clones using the same hardware and kernel,) then all they would have to do is switch over to Retro's files. I am going to assume that this is the case for both the OP and user I just replied to because of how the nature of the R4i-SDHC kernel being based on TTMENU and thus just showing all of the .NDS files at the same time because that's the DSTT/R4i-SDHC kernel works.

uhhhh, the url? r4isdhc dot com

kernel? uhhh, if it's the version number on the bottom right of the the boot up menu, its v4.0

i hope retro's files thingy is not just ysmenu since it can't run pokemon black/white 2 (or is that fixed?)

sorry if any of this doesn't make any sense, super new to this. Thanks for helping

Retro’s files are Ysmenu and the Pokémon games have been fixed, I can confirm this as I was the tester.

Thanks! I'll try to switch at a later time, seems kinda hard (i am really slow with these things)

super appreciate it, that's all i could say.

once again, thanks!
