    DStwo is both the most expensive (32 dollars at priceangels, if I am allowed to say that) and the best, due to GBA emulation.
    if you don't need that, get an acekard.

    EDIT: Loonylion, several people already have it,, they are shipping them you know, release date was today.

    This topic is meant as a precaution, sort of like "be careful not to spend your money on these fakes when you can get a better more compatible card for the same money or slightly more."

    Compare it to buying a 40 dollar fake nike shirt when a real one is 45.

    Let it go Kiekoes... :(

    Some people haven't been in the flashcart scene as long as others... =\
    I'm relatively new to it myself I guess, compared to how long it's been around. :)
    From the first crappy GBA ones. XD I only read about them and finally got my hands on my prized EZ Flash IV. Though I've had a flashcart for around 3 years now.

    Any R4, whether or not it supports 2 GB Micro SD cards or not is a fake since the real one's production was shut down 2 years ago as stated many times before...

    Have you tried any other size Micro SD to see if that works? Besides 1 and 2 GBs?

    No of course not, R4 isn't capable of that. Well, if you have a original/original-clone one.

    I'm calling BS on avoiding the M3i Zero. What's so bad about it? It's supported and runs well with RTS/RTG.

    Build quality is so-so, but I haven't had any problem with it that wasn't the SD card's fault.

    However, the M3i SDHC and the M3 Upgrade are clones/fakes.

    You should add R4 and R4i SDHC

    Also TTDS ADVANCE

    I agree with linkfan551. I have M3i Zero and there is nothing wrong with it.

    Acecard2i is the best...
    Had a ttds and it worked for about a year and a half then just stopped.

    My friend bought an r4igold when he got a dsi, it worked for a week or so... now it comes up with an error.

    Also add R4i Gold

    To all those with bad listed cards, if your smart, you can find ways to make your new games work on them despite compatibility issues.


    If your looking for a new card, read this, this is now kinda meant for newbs with plans to buy flash carts.


    (HA HA R4 SUKZ :p)

    its not that theres anything wrong with it per se, its just that theres a lot of poor clones of the M3 that can make it difficult to get an official one.

    The official website (http://www.m3adapter.com) notices that the M3i SDHC is fake.

    original r4's in combination with wood r4,
    I like it,
    so it ain't bad at all.

    I would avoid r4 sdhc, r4 ultra instead

    all clones :)

    It isn't too difficult to get an original R4 if you get lucky and catch somebody selling off a warehouse stock of left overs on sites like iOffer, and are even luckier in the fact that you actually got an original R4 and not some BS clone. I only got my R4 original back in October last year, yet it is definitely an original beyond all reasonable doubt. Of course, I also only payed $4 for the actual card, and about $4 for shipping. With Wood R4, this card is freaking fantastic.

    Still wouldn't recommend purchasing it over the Acekard2i, CycloDS, or the DSTWO (I guess, don't know if it is worth the price tag yet) though.

    The last Datel (or whatever) Spoiler isn't working.

    Hit the nail on the head. If you have a friend or family member who wants a flashcard for cheap, the original R4 isn't a bad idea, especially now that we have Wood.
