Everyone is entitled to make mistakes, you can't expect everyone to just know what works and what doesn't right off the top of their head. How do you know if this person is new to the scene or not? Do you know if he was misled by someone else? Are flashcart collectors "scrubs" as well even though they know what has time bombs and what doesn't? There is a difference between someone who truly doesn't know and someone who actually is an idiot. You have to be able to tell the difference rather than sticking most people with questions pertaining to flashcarts into one category and labeling them "scrubs".
Then ignore them, why bother getting frustrated over something so petty as this lol.
Psssh hell no lol, I am new to GBAtemp but in terms of flashcarts, homebrew, and modding in general I have been around the block many times, I got my first flashcart back in 2007, as I got older I was able to understand things much more about these things and then some, so here I am today with all the information that I know. Nothing of mine is ground breaking but it is still useful for people to have and or know.
Even so this doesn't justify a reason to be kinda rude lol.
I have an Acekard 2i, it doesn't have a time bomb at all. I can't speak for the Acekard RPG but I know for a fact the Acekard 2i doesn't because I still have mine from many years ago and it still works to this day. I already tested it by toggling the year on my DS console.
Ok? So some people will never learn? That isn't any type of new information.
Source? Never heard about this before.
Last I checked this was only an R4 type of thing.
No they will work just fine, I have a SuperCard DSTWO Plus, Acekard 2i, R4i SDHC 3DS RTS, R4i Gold 3DS Plus, and DS-Xtreme 2GB. None of which has a time bomb, I also used to have an EZ-Flash III (Orange) and that didn't have a time bomb either.
I know the Acekard has been cloned but I don't think those clones contained a time bomb.
The R4i Gold 3DS RTS/Plus is superior or equal to the acekard 2i in almost every way. I think that it's more important to maintain compatibility with recent DSi and 3DS versions than to make sure that no one confuses the cards.
Gateway has no timebomb. No wood card (legit and clones) that I know of has a timebomb. Ace3ds has no timebomb etc.
There are others without a time bomb. General rule is the ones with a year printed on them are likely to have timebombs but there are plenty of carts that don't have years printed on them and I'm guessing won't have a timebomb.
