Very nice topic But I know all I do know about my own flascard and firmware xd Anyway realy all the best, and hope it help's some ppl out
While the Acekard 2i is good on a DS console, it's no good on the DSi's and 3DS's people play on due to the fact that you can't patch it to work on 4.4 or 4.5. If you want, I can add it to the list but make a note that's it's only suggested for DS consoles.
Thanks for the informative topic. I have a DS Phat now with an R4. However, the system won't charge the battery (even after replacing it) and I am hoping to upgrade it soon to a 3DS XL. I was glad to have read that the DS Two supports GBA emulation. That may be the deal-breaker as to which card I pick up! Again, thanks for doing all the hard work for us all.
