And a cart where people don't have to worry about getting a clone, which, even if AKAIO functions on, may not get AKAIO updates or bootloader updates.
And let's not get started on the concern with telling people "R4i Gold" and then them buying "R4i Gold Deluxe" and "R4i Gold Pro" and such.
Yes it comes at a higher cost, but still less than one game.
I've given this some thought, and when it comes to my personal opinion I'm just going to suggest the DSTwo unless the physical/clone situation with the Ak2i changes, or we can suggest the proper R4i Gold model without people buying the wrong thing (inadvertently or not). Given the way flash cart companies have been moving nowadays and the slow death of the scene, neither of these things looks to change.
