This thread is just to get a bit of a list happening for support and back patting for R4 owners.

I’m not one yet but my order is in, I should be a proud R4 owner very soon =)

edit: also another idea, tell us where you got it, how much for and your experience, that might help soon to be owners decide to get one and work out where from

me:

R4 DS : bamboogaming.com ($45 AUS)
1GB MicroSD also bamboo ($59 AUS)
Shiping was $20 AUS but saved me farting around as i could just pay via direct deposit from my net bank.

I also ordered one today from Bamboogaming but I got a Sandisk 1GB MicroSD from a local shop for $42.95 (AUS). I managed to talk him into matching a price from another store. He did even though the other store didn't have any in stock, good service that. I can't wait until next week!!!

I've just sent for mine. The review shaun did made up my mind to get one. Ordered it yesturday.

i had basicly made up my mind any way but that post was part one of a 2 part deal maker.

the other part was hearing that it can be flashed as an m3 with a little hack. incase the m3 firmware is ever better then the R4's im coverd =) however i still suspect that r4 is the developer and m3 is just selling it re-badged.

I ordered my R4 from mod-chip.com. Sent on 27th Dec. and arrived here in UK on 30th on the standard delivery option.

Only problem is that I'm still waiting for the microSD I ordered at the same time from Ebuyer to arrive -- due tomorrow 3rd Jan.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    lmao
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
