    Wow I haven't posted in this site since forever!!! :)
    But I recently got myself a 3DS and wanted to ask some questions about the flash carts. This place near where I stay offers flash carts for a decent price. I cant order from other countries as I dont own a credit card. The thing is I suspect they may be clones. That doesn't really bother me, what bothers me is getting a WORKING flash cart that I can play DS games on my new 3ds. My firmware is 1.1.0-0E. Here are some links to the sites that these cards are manufactured by. Am pretty sure most are fake but would appreciate any advice on what I should get bearing in mind I cant order from overseas.

    R4i SDHC - http://www.r4isdhc.com/3ds/
    R4i Gold - http://www.r4i-gold.com/
    R4i Gold Revolution - http://www.r4i-ndsill.com/
    Acekard2i - http://www.acekard.cc
    There is a DSTWO as well but am not sure from which site they offer the firmware. The card can be found here - http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/item/43682074/Supercard_DSTwo_3DS_DSi_DS_Lite_DS_XL_No_Upgrade_Needed_For_1_4_2_IN_STOCK.html

    Please guys, any info would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I would have to guess that if any of those cards were to work, I would put my money on the Acekard. My experience has been that the Acekards are always the best in terms of by passing AP and loading games without the need for cracked games. Best of luck anyways and I hope someone can tell you what would work the best for your situation,

    Addition:
    I would highly recommend that one uses AKAIO instead of the official Acekard firmwre.

    all those cards are clones. including the acekard. acekard's real website is www.acekard.com so if you get an acekard 2i, make sure its from that site so akaio can work properly. also, you will probably need a dslite to update the card to work on the 3ds. if you dont have one. i highly recommend getting a supercard dstwo since it can be updated wthout the need of a dslite

    your two option are either supercard dstwo or acekard 2i.

    if the store doesnt have them and you dont have credit card. why dont you try asking for someone to order it for you and you pay them n cash, or something like that

    Hi grimsim, i am sure the links you left are all incorrect official sites, so the flashcards they sell are nearly all fake cards, i dont recommend them at all, it will take you many problems after you use and update them in future. You should know what these cards really look like:

    Here are the correct ones, at least known by others.

    you can find them here : 3DS flashcart

    Here are pics of them you need to recognize them

    R4i gold (Now called R4i gold 3ds) official site: http://www.r4ids.cn/

    R4i sdhc 3ds official site: http://r4i-sdhc.com/

    Acekard 2i official site: http://www.acekard.com/

    Supercard DSTwo official site: http://supercard.sc/


    And i recommend you buy Acekard 2i which is a budget card, DStwo is better but cost more.
     
  5. The supercard dstwo has many excellent features, such as Gamboy Advance emulator WITHOUT slot 2 device and Better Super Nintendo emulator(SNES)
    ..if you do not mind the battery issue (coz it sucks your battery because of the built in CPU)

    Hey dudes. Thanks for all the replies and all the help. I thought I'd just order one in any case even though it may be a shitty clone. Wasn't expensive but thought I'd just try and if it was a rubbish cart would try and order from overseas somehow. Anyway, I ordered and the product from a local online retailer and it was clearly described as I explained it in my original post. I was expecting a weak clone. However, when the cart eventually arrived it was actually an awesome R4i 3DS Gold Revolution, the exact one that Crazyplayboy posted. And it is the original because the site listed on the cart and the package is the www.r4ids.cn. Needless to say I am pretty stoked. Thanks for the help dudes.
