    - R4 Pro
    - MARS
    - R4 Ultra
    - R4 SDHC
    - R4 SDHC Upgrade
    - R4 Upgrade

    - R4 Advance (maybe GBA)
    - R4 Deluxe

    All flash carts come from trying to emulate what the R4 does, and then they built upon that. So this means all flash carts are clones of the R4.

    The Acekard is no R4 clone.

    Well if your theory is so then every piece of firmware should work on all flash carts.

    I did say BUILT UPON. So they changed some datas so R4 couldn't failgasm the other flash carts.

    But then the original R4 team could surely sure every flashcard creator and claim they stole their software to make their own version.

    Nah, no proof.

    But you know that's how it was done, since R4 was the first flash cart and it was the best fucking flash cart for the longest time.

    First, please refrain yourself from swearing.
    Second, the R4 hasn't been the best for a long time, nowadays it's only really good for eight year old kids who want free games. Things like the Acekard are not clones, they are completely different.

    The R4 team stoped the activities because of the countless clones that where being created wit the ''R4'' name on it!

    clones either copied the R4 or use the R4 name to sell their own (usually inferior) flashcarts.

    Cyclods, edge, acecard, dstt were developed completely independently.

    Is somebody having a love affair with the R4?

    Then how do you explain how they came out and were most similar to R4?

    When R4 was about the only good flash cart out, would you have called it lame or fucking awesome?
     
  17. kyrodon

    kyrodon Guest

    Dude, seriously?
    The Acekard is nothing like the R4
    Most flashcards aren't.


    If they were the only option then yes, I would call it awesome, but they aren't and quite frankly in a few months they'll be as good for your ds as throwing a brick at it is.
    Edit: seriously, please stop the swearing.

    ....Seriously, I shall stop swearing on this forum when I can play the games I fucking want. (Sonic and Sega all star racing, Jam Sessions 2, and WarioWare DIY)
