Hacking Why do people hate the R4 so much?

[Joe88]

true

can be connected to sports also
even though there called fans, there just big fanboys and will defend their team to death if they hear anyone cracking jokes at them or saying they suck ect...

The difference is that the whole concept of sports is competition between the two teams.

Consoles are designed to play games. They don't fight with each other in a boxing ring, this isn't "Robot Wars" with home video game consoles.

People just argue about it because they have nothing better to do with their times (like god forbid, just stfu and play the damn thing), and also due to their insecurities with spending so much money at such a young age (average console fanboy is 12, this is proven fact).

They jacked the prices up to around 30-80$ in many places while you can get flashcards with better compatibility and features for less than 20$

??? Its the same thing except the build quality of the card is worse. Uhh.. I think the N5 is even worse then the R4.

I can at least see why console fanboys want their console to do well and why they have an attachment to the company.
None of that matters to me with flash carts, and I think anyone who swears elegance to a flash cart just wants to be an asshole

You mean "allegiance" XD

Anyway since launch R4 actually went up by like $10 even from DX.

But I dont see anything wrong with that let the R4 cop all the media fire. It can be the decoy.

This thread consists of:

A) Fanboys defending the R4 for no reason.

B) People restating obvious facts to others who don't care.

C) This post.

It does everything I want it to do.
I don't need over 2GB of storage to play games.
It's simple to use.
Easy to customise.

That's about it. It's true that there are other better flashcarts out there like the CycloDS but I found them extremely unreliable.

Hi everyone i would just liek to say I don't know where you guys have been but if you look online maybe once in a while you will see that the newer R4's now called R4 II (sometimes R4 III) is now SDHC compatable. So even though it may still be inferior in area of features it is does have SDHC support.

I think you got your answer. This topic should be closed now...

That's just R4 clones with the R4 logo. Real R4's doesn't have sdhc-compability.

@killermike....This mad me laugh so hard....We are arguing here, and he just comes and solves the whole damn thing (sarcasm)..

I agree with question being answered..R4 is great if you have it, and it works, if it brakes, go get yourself some new/other cart, as it's cheaper/safer/advanced and does same thing, plays ROMs..

Sigh.... We've seen around 2 "R4 Third gen" that says it'll support SDHC, but neither of them did.

And the R4 team keeps saying they never made any new carts.
