    i heard the company which manufactured r4 had some problem with the big "N", i don't know if its just a rumor or a fact.
    anyone can confirm this? coz we all need constant upgrade of firmware, and if the development stop i have to buy another flashcard :'( :'( :'(

    Oh damn, if R4 is out of business, would it be better if I bought an M3?

    they aren't out of business, I just stated that they did have problems with nintendo a while ago. However, R4 is no longer the most compatible flashcart, it has been surpassed by the cyclods evolution.

    So if Iwasnt able to use my R4 anymore, would CycloDS Evolution be the better Slot1 device to choose?

    Well I'll get the latest firmwares for the R4, but If i find problems, CycloDS is a good choice

    Yes it is

    But in my opinion I would rather have the r4 so that I can trim and patch games :p

    Not really, sort of the same, but it was based on R4, on features anyway.
