Hey guys, Been reading the site for a while now, and have started going in circles lol

I bought my partner a R4i Gold V2 from www.r4fords.co.uk, and kinda forgot that slot 1 cards cant play GBA games.

Now after searching on Google and coming to this site, i have seen many people referring to the 3 in 1 card, and even a link o your wiki page http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/3_in_1_Expans..._for_EZ-Flash_V

my question is can this card be made to read from the trans-flash in the slot 1 cart like on the easy flash slot 1 cart?

aplologise if this is a noobish question but its been a long time since using GBA flash carts and im a bit lost, the search function does not want to play with me it seems. keeping throwing me round in circle when i check.

thanks for any help given, much appreciated

If you want GBA games runin on your R4, you need this:

----Ezflash V 3in1 expansion pack: An slot 2 expansion memory with the following freatures:

.:NOR Memory to store one GBA Game(you can acces it directly from the DS System BIOS, like a normal GBA Game.
.:RAM Memory(and the most interesting part), this enables you to load any gba rom only ONE TIME, this is for fast GBA roms use, so you can load the like a NDS rom, and save the file after reboot, also, you can boot NDS Opera Browser with it, a very useful Internet Browser, tough, is slow.
.:Rumble freature, for NDS Games who uses this, like Metroid Prime Huntersor Diddy Kong Racing.

----GBAExploader: A very useful Homebrew debeloped by Rudolph, is the program who uses the EZflash very well, because you can't load the GBA games directly from your R4 Firmware.

    I think I have a 128gb ssd for my ps2. It was enough for what I needed
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I meant to say that I wanted him to search it

    128 is fine if you just want top favorites on it

    I still need to 3d print that piece of plastic to make the 2.5" drive sit nicely in the 3.5" bay
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    I have 2 TB hard drives in both of my PS2 consoles
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    would like to see how a 2TB SSD would run but I'm too cheap-ass to do it
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I just have a small few choice games, most people wouldn't be interested in most of what I have
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    I'm too cheap to upgrade my chromebox to 512GB ssd also :|
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    it needs it
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    512gb ssds are like $30 now so that's why I'd up it a little
  • cearp @ cearp:
    ssd will just be lighter, less noise, and ensure the bottleneck isn't your drive :D
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @K3Nv3 yea the one for my chromebox is like $31 shipped
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @cearp I'm mainly concerned with the load time when booting up. currently the drive gets raked like hell looking up all the games, rather than just booting up directly like it's configured to do

    There's SO much junk for switch -- one of the negatives about making too easy to publish a game
