which r4 card is the best?

im looking for

build quality(i know its a dumb thing to ask from such a cheap flashcart)
firmware compatibility
game compatibility

and aslo i was wondering if any r4 supports the wood firmware with the realtime save.

thx in advance

I think R4i gold 3ds is an excellent one with good firmware and game compatibility. Its wood kernel updates rapidly. It works great on the latest 3DS 4.5.0-10 and DSi 1.4.5. One of its official distributors: http://www.gamezway.com/Wholesale-r4i-gold-3ds_c924.

Is there a place where I can get an R4i Gold 3DS without paying for it with a Credit Card? I only have PayPal. It's not listed on PriceAngels unfortunately.

http://www.zhuzhuchina.com/store/ takes it, but you need to e-mail them for the paypal info.

Paypal isn't a bank and doesn't have to follow the laws banks do, so they can take bribes from Nintendo and such to shut down the accounts of stores that sell items Nintendo doesn't like, so flash carts keep their paypal info hidden to avoid it.

Didn't they stop taking it though? That's what it says on the site.

DSTwo in terms of features is the best, as it has a CPU in the card that lets it run GBA emulators and SNES emulators at (mostly) full speeds, but its expensive
Second Best? R4iGold 3DS from r4ids.cn but u gotta get the Revision C(Kirby Icon or Labyrinth Icon). I personally would choose the r4i gold 3ds , seeing as I've had one since launch and it has yet to fail me.

^ And if I'm correct, the R4i Gold 3DS is the only card along with the DSTwo that is equipped to be able to bypass future Anti-Piracy methods from Nintendo (provided they don't improve on it even more again.)
There's also the M3i Zero somethingZ3000 that works now, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it getting constant AP bypass updates in the future.

The R4i Gold 3ds seems to be the top recommended one.I just ordered mine from Gamekool. There's a coupon code CHEERS for the site too, so it'll be a bit cheaper.The reviews on shoptemp seemed to be good though.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • 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.

    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.

    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

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    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."

    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.
