  1. R4isdhc GOLD Pro 2018
  2. R4i Gold 3DS Plus
  3. R4 SDHC Dual-Core 2018
  4. R4iSDHC RTS LITE 2018
  5. R4-SDHC (upgrade)
I have a pink DS lite that needs a game cart, I know they are compatible with ds lite but does that mean with all versions?
Which is the best out of all of these that I should buy
I want it to be fast and save to micro sd and easy to use, I can careless about skins and the fancy shit I just need a simple, durable, fast, and no lag cart, can someone help me pick they seem the same to me I don't get the complicated words :( thanks :)

(also I got a 520 in 1 game card a month ago and it keeps ejecting automatically and stuff like that I never dropped it and it's not the console, do r4s tend to do this also :( )

R4-SDHC, nice and cheap and no time bomb.
Actually it does have a timebomb or at least mine does and it's the same one from the nds-card
Really not that complicated though, you should have gone with the R4i Gold. The rest of timebombs built into their official kernels and the only way around that is to lose some functionality with YSMenu.

Strange, mine had no year on it and has been working fine for 3+ years now got it from nds-card too. Use my acecard2i as my main now though.

On September 3, 2019, the Official kernel will tell you that it has expired and no longer function unless you set the time back on your system (which can screw up time events and online functionality.) YSMenu has issues with Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 as well as lacks features like RTS and multiple skins, it's pretty bare bones.
The R4i Gold may cost a bit more, but you get Wood R4 and no timebomb.
This R4i Gold Plus, the other also has a timebomb. I actually own all of those carts above, I bought several of them for a few projects.

Wood R4 is the kernel used by the R4i Gold (plus,) it's an acekard-source based kernel that does provide RTS on the R4i Gold Plus.

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
