Hi all. I currently have a R4DS with 2GB memory for my daughters DS. While it works okay with most games it doesnt seem to play all. Can people here please recommend which device for playing backup roms on the DS is the best ? I'm after the one that has the best compatibility and can handle memory greater than 2GB. My neighbour is going to Hong Kong soon and has offered to bring stuff back for me, so hopefully will be able to get the items cheaper. Thanks
Either grab yourself a CycloDS or an Edge. The Edge which people claim is a copy of the CycloDS works just like one but you can get it for much cheaper and everything works fine and they always update whenever the cart needs a new firmware. It has soft reset and all that including updated cheats and their is also a cheat where you can change the lighting of your DS during gameplay so it's pretty sick and helpful and it's compatible up to a 8gb SDHC memory and maybe even over. So I recommend you get an Edge; Google it and maybe you'll find out about it more. Google: Edge DS
I gotta reccomend the CycloDS. To make a long story short, it just works. No ARM patching, no fiddling, no nothing. Put the roms on and play. To me, the simplicity was worth the price.
your firmware probably isn't updated, but there are other games that need to be patched and etc so *shrug* (regarding your r4)
