What do you think of R4?
The title says it all, do you like R4's? I think they are okay, except for the part about the copyright argument... I don't wanna get wound into it.
If I post this in the wrong place, please tell me. |
You can always have homebrew games so its not really illegal :\

Also, I think you should realise there are indeed other flash carts that perform equal or better than R4DS. Quote:

Well, I have had an R4DS for almost a year and it's never failed me. Even if games don't work on it,
it's a simple matter of going online and downloading the new firmware. And I'm getting an EZ Flash 3 in 1 Expansion Pak soon, so that will let me play hacks on my R4! w00t! <(^.^)> Sure, it's not quite legal. But neither are things like Limewire, and most sane people don't use iTunes to fill their iPods. |
actually a lot of sane people use itunes, insane people are the ones who do stuff illegally and I really haven't been bothered to go and buy an R4 yet, though I have been meaning too since like the start of the year
|
yeah its good. i liked watching videos on my DS. untill i got a cellphone =D
|
I use the CycloDS and I prefer it, it has nice themes and all. The updates for support of new DS games come often, its pretty easy to use and there is a lot of support online.
|
:/ I'm just stating a possibility... and no... NO ONE buys an R4 for homebrew games... :/ Except maybe Bill Gates or something.. or the owner of Nintendo :/
|
I use an R4DS and I have to say without it I would never play any new games due to money shortages.
|
I have a cheap rip-off one from China, but it works just as well. I have over ten games on it, and music. The imitations are as good as the real thing.
|
I think the R4 is...
Well I think The R-4 is cool because U can play many games on it involving the nintendo DS and u can have mutimedia on it like music.
|
I have one, they're pretty cool. Especially how you can theme them, and play homebrew, music & movies. For downloading games illegally, like Razer302, I doubt I would actually buy them so technically I'm not losing Nintendo any money. If you have one, a CycloDS or pretty much any other flash cart, NDSthemes is a good site for downloading new ones, and uploading your own.
|
R4DS is awesome. Just the way you use it, might be legal or not, but the ability to carry music around is awesome to me (yeah I carry my DS around instead of iPod ^_^),
As said above, customizing your DS with themes is also a plus. |
Its alright........... Only for now. Hope it doesn't effect me in the future.
|
I guess R4s are alright, but if you really like a game I would say just buy the actual cartridge, besides from what I've heard, Nintendo is taking measures to make R4s and similar cards incompatible with the new DSI.
|
they are pretty good
i have an R4, i like it. the only problem is the lack of updates.
|
Some website says that Nintendo is trying to use law to get rid of Flash Cards (Not Necessarily R4), But that only seemed to do the opposite, now more people buy Flash Cards, someone even made such a comment, "Dealing with (Flash Cards) is like dealing with a Hydra: You cut off one head, three grows back." On the other hand, though, if we continue to buy R4's but not the legal copies, Nintendo will go bankrupt and no more games for us. :P
|
R4 is very outdated :\
I suggest CycloDS |
I have an R4. Yes, you can put music on it but it had horrible quality, even when you use headphones. The R4DS team is gone. No more updates.
|
Why would anyone buy a flash cart to STEAL games anyway... I mean...first pirating software, then emulating to prevent purchase, and now PUTTING it on your DS :/

It and the CycloDS have general updates making it compatible with the latest games and sorting problems that the previous versions had such as certain games Wii connectivity. |
