I don't think it would be worth it to pay that much for shipping. My $6 shipping got it here in 2 days. (I ordered on the 6th, but it was in the evening, so you really can't count that in the shipping time.)Quote:

Cracked!!! :doink: What did you do ?Quote:

The makers of the R4 need to give us a cut of their profit for helping "spread the word" about this. :P
While I was searching for a site to order my cousin's R4 from, I stumbled across this awesome list of sites. Check it out...

Flashcart Dealer's - World List with reliability info!
Enjoy!!! ;)
Oh just in case some of you haven't checked R4's website lately (http://www.r4ds.com/index-en.htm) they have redesigned the cart! They have now removed the spring loader and moved the microSD slot to the side of the cart instead of the top (based on recent pics). For anyone purchasing one of these new models you will no longer have to worry about the microSD slot giving out which has always been the only big issue with the R4DS. Now the R4 is truely a must have. I'm already thinking about getting a new one just to have the new design so I don't have to play with the microSD slot in the one I already have.
If you're talking about the black one on the main page (with the dimples in the sides), that's the one I have and the microSD slot is still in the top.Quote:

also thisQuote:
The Reason You Cannot Buy R4 Now and Solution
We are now decide to hold all R4 sales all together due to the all in a sudden supply shortage.
This shortage came quite suddenly because we receives 1 to 2 shipments from the R4 team each week and it was only after 2 missed shipments that we were officially told it's in shortage (after inquiries).
We have to hold from taking new orders so that existing orders can be fulfilled in the quickest manner. The R4 team is making steady supplies but the quantity still fluctuates, therefore we cannot give a definitive date as to shipment. If you need it by Christmas or not, if you may either choose to wait, or to request for a full refund by sending us an email at http://www.volumerate.com/accounts/cancelorder.vr . Please allow us 3 business days for the refund due to the large amount of requests for the cancellation.
To track your current order status for R4, please go to http://www.liveshipment.com/customers/ with your order number. (The order number which is started with letter "Q")

Welcome DealExtreme Customers: Did you clicked on a DealExtreme link and arrived at VolumeRate? It's because DX no longer sells R4 for legal compliance reasons. The good news is that DealExtreme has affiliated with VolumeRate for the R4 product and thus you can still get them at the best prices!

The r4 is without a doubt, the best deal I have ever gotten on a piece of gaming hardware, per square foot of fun. And yes, it does wifi.

OBJECTION! Sorry, I was just playing Phoenix Wright on my GBA card with a super key, both from sprung.Quote:

Man i use the emulator and it runs at 98-104% on my computer. It works just fine except for the fact that you have to go to options to change the save options for some games like final fantasy 3(32k) and pokemon pearl (512k). I got animal crossing wild world for my emulator (don't know why i already have 2 of them(normal ds cards)) but it doesn't show any characters the GROUND:0, and something else but i forgot. but it shows the inside of buildings propely and the top screen and speech bubbles. does anyone have one that works properly on emulator?
Also, sprung whats a passcard or whatever and can i have it?:)
A passcard tricks the DS into reading DS info saved on a GBA flash cart in slot 2. I already got rid of it...Quote:

i have 1 for sale, it's actually a Action Replay DS, I'm asking $20 + shipping.Quote:

if you want a passme hold select when you turn it on then let go when you see the white screen for 3 seconds.
Ordered a cycloDS hopefully it's good...
