[Review] Ace3DS X

Just FYI to everyone else, this card was also officially reviewed here:

by our @SonyUSA

 

Kinda hoping that this will help the developers support Ace3DS in flashcart_core

 

Have you tested if pokemon white/black edition 2 has the XP bug (where you pokemon can't get beyond the level which you catched them on)?

 

That was not a bug it was anti piracy protection and was also in black/white not just the second games

 

I mean it's kind of a bug but more in the flashcard kernel. According to my Ace3DS X tests the card has this bug/issue which should be mentioned if the review states "As I’ve read that some games like Pokemon White 2 don’t work, I’ve tried it and I can confirm they work with the latest kernel update.".

 

Yeah, sure there is a patched version. But you can't say that a game is compatible if it needs a patch. That way you could say that cards from 2007 which require a patch for every game have an excelent compatibility.

 

If it can be switch 3DS mode to DS mode directly, i will prefer this one.

 

Yes, from the official site, it says the Ace3ds X can be switched between DS and NTRboot modes easily by only pushing a button on the card of the card. However, due to its price and shipment, I still can't decide Ace3ds X and R4I B9S, which to choose in 3ds-flashcard site. The site gets R4I B9S in USA but not ACE3DS X.

 

Thanks, the 3ds-flashcard is also accepting paypal and credit card payment and I already e-mailed them to get a discount, save 5 dollars, it's enough for me. Because I bought from them ever, currently don't want to change.

i also reviewed it.

TL;DR: it does what it promises. A worthy purchase for people afraid to flash.

 

Well i bought a N2DSXL today with 11.4 Firm on it, my AK2i and R4Ultra don't work on it, so i ordered this card for NTRboot

 

By any chance, has anyone who has used this card also have a R4i Gold Plus? Have been considering getting either that or this, but I can't find any decent reviews from people who have used both.

 

They really should have worked. You should have tried to troubleshoot instead of wasting money.
Out of all 6 3ds models. The new2ds is probably the trickiest. You have to be patient and keep trying.

 

The r4i gold plus is a better cart, but its a bit harder to get to the switch. i got the ace3ds X for free, so...

 

I think it's more that both cards are broken i think, they don't work descent in my other systems, even my older DSi models, the used to work perfect, but now no system recognizes the cards, so no way to get ntrboot on it even.
and not really wasted, was looking for a new card to play old NDS games on my 3Ds systems anyway but thanks for the headsup
