DS Homebrew and Flashcarts

Are you referring to the rom loading times?

If so it's stated as one of the fastest cards, but not the fastest...

It does use the same save system/functions as the R4/M3 and they both load in 3 seconds too, some cases in as little as 1 second.

I'm not bashing the card or you, if I had one I'd probably recommend it too but my experiences with it aren't the best.

I've added this card to the first post too

to tell you the truth, i don't have the card, i just ordered it a few days ago. seemed the best for the money. only $45 for the card and a 2GB microSD card.

typically i like what neoflash does. they consistently make great products, but their support leaves much to be desired. basically, if you don't mind buying a new and better flashcard every 6 months or so, then neoflash had been the best up until everyone else came out with their own. don't quote me on this, but i think they were the first, if not one of the first to get homebrew working on an NDS that didn't involve flashing the firmware.

this will be my third neoflash device. i also have the MK2 and the MK4, both of which were the best when they came out, but quickly went by the wayside when other projects came up. i'm taking a risk here, but i'm hoping that the DSTT gets continued support well into the future.

I have a R4 coming in the mail, i have all my NDs games ready and a few movies. Question though, am i able to play GBA games with the R4?

[hillgroover]

You can still load GBA games from Slot-2 from the R4 menu. I doubt that's what you're asking though, if you download a GBA emulator you can then play GBA games (.gba files) through the emulator. .gba files won't run natively through the NDS though.

I bought a Games N Music card at Walmart for 20 bucks. I didn't like it at first but after some searching I found a patch for it. That basically gave me more options and def. was worth the money.

The R4 is the best piece of video game equipment i have ever purchased.

I'm not sure, but isn't this stuff illegal?

I hate hacking and roms and stuff, too confusing for me and not official. Besides, their not always trustworthy.

Actually, people use it to play movies and music, the games are an added feature.Most people use it for back up games.

Ive had my R4 for alittle awhile and im interested on trying out these homebrews..it great and all but has any else noticed this small problem?
Whenever the r4 is inside and i bump my ds against something, not even hard or anything, the game freezes and sometimes when i close the sreen to pause it..it doesnt work so the music is still playing and it drains the battery..other than that i love the games and i use
