subject: More New Advantages Of R4i [print this page] The R4i developers, the first team to establish a workaround for the Nintendo DS or Nintendo Dsi new anti-flash cart measures, revealed that current R4i owners will not be able to patch their carts with a simple update. It is just an amazing device like original Ds or Dsi cart size, it is a total solution with no need to purchase any additional components or deal with any messy software and truly the easiest media enhancer you have ever done To simply put it, this is a must have peripheral for any regular Ds or DSi owner.
Theyll need to buy a modified device to load pirated or homebrew software on any DS or Dsi with the 1.4 firmware installed. The updated R4i releases next Week. Will this be the case with any other flash carts like the Ace Kard 2i? I cant say for sure, but considering that the R4i card is a clone of the former, Ace Kard will need to come up with a various bypass solution if it wants to avoid forcing current owners into buying new carts.
The M3i Zero and Super card DSONEi, both designed with any external firmware updates via USB dongles in mind, are better suited to provide patches that circumvent the new protections, but even that isnt guaranteed. I wonder what flash cart resellers think of all this, as they have boxes of useless stock thats incompatible with current Ds or Dsi systems. Will the instability and limited shelf life of these devices drive some shops to close up their flash cart operations or this business as usual? R4i is just an amazing little device like original Ds or Dsi cart size, it is a complete solution with no need to buy any other components or deal with any messy software and truly the easiest media enhancer you have ever done.
