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?

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:

    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds

    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
