    both have their ups and downs
    SC DS2: plus side: has amazing compatibility, save in game, gba emulator, looks great, does not need regular updating
    Down Side: its expensive (34$), gba emulator does not work that great yet
    Acekard 2i: plus side: amazing compatibility (using AKAIO), its cheap(15$), wifi updates for cheats, wii conectivity
    Down side: need to flash for it to work on DSi, DSiXL 1.4, no gba emulator, good compatibility using official firmware

    I would personally get the supercard DSTWo, but it is expensive, you see which one is more convinient for you

    I would recommend the Acekard 2i. The above things are true, but if you just want a simple cart, then go with the AK2i with AKAIO.

    Do you have access to a DS phat or DS lite? Does a sibling or friend have one you can borrow for a few minutes? If not, some companies will pre-flash the acekard for you.

    Basically, the acekard 2i does not work on the dsi xl until it's been "updated", and in order to update it, it needs to be inserted into a ds phat or lite to flash it, then it's ready to be used in an XL.

    yes, it has gba emulation, i heard its ok, not great, but its ok. supercard dstwo is pretty simple, you just download the firmware, and thats it, and it doesnt need regular updates. and flashing the acekard, im not sure how it works, but i know you need a ds lite or regular ds to do this

    I wrote a simple guide on official acekard forum.
