    You want a flashcart. They're basically modchips for your DS. You put the games on an SD card, and then you can play it with the flashcart on the DS. Currently, the best all-round flashcart is the CycloDS Evolution. As for the links to the dealers, you might want to look at this:

    no, the R4 V2 is fake. You want the CycloDS and a microSD card of at least 2GB.

    They don't sell Original R4's anymore...
    But there isn't much difference between that fake and the real one though...

    if you want something that uses microsdhc get the edge card, its only about 21.50 bucks and its very well built and very reliable. the dstt is now very cheap but mine broke after just a few months so i'm sticking with the edge card, its a bit more in price but its cheaper than the cyclone and just as good. go to dealextreme they got the best prices. if you live in the uk dont worry about custom charges, dx will write on the package that its a gift so you dont have to pay any custom charges.

    heres the link:
    edge cart - 21.50
    http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10919
    2gb kingston for 6.50
    http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2396
    4gb kingston - 12.99
    http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11241
    all free shipping. they also have a 4gb microsdhc but to try out you should just get the 2gb.

    if i'm not suppose to post that, please delete for me i'm sorry but i saw other links posted so i thought it would be okay.

    They do sell them in unknown places, making them is different.

    The R4 isn't made anymore, so anything on general sale claiming to be an R4 is a fake.

    no, you most likely bought a clone. But yeah, they *can* work fine, but they're not guaranteed to as some of the clones are so poorly made they can do more harm tha ngood.

    I use the R4 but my kids have both got the Edge. I bought the Edge including a 2gb micro sd card from amazon for under £25.00 (it comes as a pack) and they work just as well as the R4. Just go to amazon and type in "the edge" in the search box and that will bring up everything you need.

    Cant beat the DSTT for being user friendly, you can buy them from dealextreme at the current exchange rate for £11.70 buy 3+ and that drops to £10.35, thats DSTT card and a 2gb Sandisk Microsd card plus free worldwide delivery.

    Get A DSTT because I have one and it has a lot of features such as using action replay codes. The R4's arent made now so most of them are fake. There is also CycloDS.

    the problem rwith r4's is that you can never be sure if you have a real one and the r4 dev team stated themselves they would release a firmware update that would effectively brick your ds if you are using a clone/fake. so why risk it and r4s dont work with microsdhc and that is pretty important now that the microsdhc prices are becoming so cheap. i had an r4 and loved it but i think right now if you are on a budget get the dstt or the edge if you can spend a little more. i mean to try carts out and see if you really use them, a dstt is like less than $11 so why not go with that but for a better build i say go with the edge or cyclone

    Dudes, I have tried the R4, M3 Real, TTDS, N4, DS One Supercard & the Edge DS as I have sold them all to people. Although they all do the job, I prefer the Edge DS and that is what I use every day. The only one I would not use is the N4....

    Apparently it's just been referred to as an N4 now, although it could have just been GBAtemp's mistake of labelling N5 as N4.
