I have been using R4 cards for a while. I by chance ordered my first ones from somewhere that had already formatted the cards and all I had to do was literally drag and drop the games off my pc. I then ordered a couple more from somewhere else and not being great at tech stuff, didn't realise they needed to be formatted and spent about 6 hours one sunday trying to suss out how to get them to work. I eventually managed it. However I've now gone back to buying them ready formatted! Now that was fine for the basic R4 cards that you could use for the NDS lite. However, I now need one for a DSi. Looking into things a bit more now, I see there are all sorts of different cards available now for the NDS and the DSi and wondered what the benefits were and whether I am still best to just stick with R4 cards or look at Ace? or TT? cards. Any advice greatly appreciated and any recommendations of best places to buy these. Regards Sue
