Probably nowhere now - http://gbatemp.net/t242883-breaking-news-r4-banned-in-uk

You can still order directly from overseas and hope that customs don't randomly open you package.

dnt wanna sound thick, but as i have been using a fake for so long wifout knowing, which is the best to get??
The best cart on the market is really something for debate. Some say the Acekard 2i is the best and other say the Supercard Two is the best.
Really is boils down to what you want in a card.
I would say if you want to spend the extra dollar, go with the Supercard Two, it comes with a GBA emulator, upcoming SNES emulator, updates regularly, and has a built in CPU.
If you want a card with a crap load of features and works quite nicely, go with Acekard 2.1 or 2i.
If you want another R4 and use R4 wood, just spend 6$ and buy one from shoptemp.

Then just go with either the Acekard 2.1 or R4. Both will do just that, but R4 can't use SDHC.
Well then again I heard R4 is now illegal in the UK

So just go with the Acekard 2.1.

The term "R4" was only used for reporting purposes - the ban applies to all NDS flashcarts.

The Wood firmwares only work for genuine R4 cards and the discontinued AcekardRPG. If you're getting an AceKard 2.1/2i you'll be using a firmware called AKAIO which is very similar in appearance and compatibility.

The Acekard 2 uses AKAIO, which very close to Wood, with a few more features.

And I don't think you can buy flashcarts in the UK anymore due to the ban, your best bet is to just buy it from shoptemp.

Hello,

sorry if this has been asked before, but I was just wondering if this upgrade really better? If I do this will still I need to add arm7, etc?

I mean, I'm going for a long trip overseas and plan to bring Layton 3 and Unwound Future with me, but not sure if it'll completely work. Will this guarantee the games will work perfectly? The only modifications I have ever done to my R4 is update to the latest upgrade from the original(?) R4 site.

And if I'm not sure if my R4 is a clone or not, will putting this on a clone break it?

The worst that could happen is that it doesn't load. At most it only takes a couple minutes to test. If it works, then it is a LOT better than any of the original R4 website's firmware and should be able to play PL3.

Thank you so much for your reply!

I feel so much more relieved now~ By any chance would you happen to know if it'd also work for the Last Window too?


(btw, I just love your Kyonko signature xD)

I haven't actually tried it myself yet since I've been wanting to save all the games till I'm on my trip, but I've been hearing about how the game blacks out/freezes after certain parts of the story.

Can this emulate GBA games? My old m3 slot-2 died recently (doesn't boot), and I'm using an R4 with ysmenu. I was able to launch gba games on the ysmenu using the slot-2 for ram, but can I do this with Wood? I can't seem to get it to launch.

Oh. That's a new question! Never heard that!

You can find the answer here.

You didn't read the question properly. I HAVE a slot 2 card. I just want to launch the gba rom from the R4, while using the m3 lite for ram. You CAN do this with the ysmenu. I think its also how EZ flash works too, but I don't really know anything about it. Any help?

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
