    Default New 3DSXL purchase flashcart recommendations needed

    Looks like I will be picking up a 3dsXL for my birthday with someone else paying of course and need some reccomendations on flashcarts and where I can pick one up. I am in the USA of course so that may make it harder to reccomend a place that sells them. Been looking at the Supercard DSTWO. I won't use the cheat or save state features tho. Funny how they have coined Save States Real time saves. Those of us here in the Emulation world call those Save States lol

    As a cryptography and computer security expert, I have never understood the current fuss about the open source software movement. In the cryptography world, we consider open source necessary for good security; we have for decades. Public security is always more secure than proprietary security. It's true for cryptographic algorithms, security protocols, and security source code. For us, open source isn't just a business model; it's smart engineering practice.

    http://www.digitalyeah.com/ they ship world wide and I have got 2 DSTWO's from them for my 3DS and 3DSXL I have also had 2 AceKard2i's from them one for a friend and one I still own, though don't currently have a use for.

    Just remember you are ordering from china so it will take a lil longer to get the item to you.

    I don't trust local online stores, too many come and gone but used digitalyeah for a few years now and never had an issue.

    Don't really trust the price on that site it says the reg price for a Supercard DSTWO is $69.99 even tho its suppose to be about $45 MSRP. I have also seen it going for about $35 when I was looking around.

    Well I wish you luck with that then, I know the site I gave you is more than trusted through the times I have used them, and others have that I have pointed the site out to.

    You can always use http://eng.supercard.sc/dealer.htm to find an online store yourself though, but you will have no idea if they are trusted or not

    $40 is about right though, no idea where you are getting $45 MSRP from though

    The selling price is $40.99 with free shipping

    $69 is actually a very very old price and they never sold it at that price, ever but it is the original forcast price for when the DSTWO was first released.

    An extra $5 or $6 to get it from a trusted site or you can risk it from a site selling it at $35 and you may hit lucky that is up to you though

    supercard dstwo is currently considered the best 3DS flashcart, it seems to be the one everybody is using because it supports DS/GBA Games/GB/GBC Games and Homebrews on 3DS XL. and yeah it supports the newest 3DS XL 5.1.0-11 system. Just did a quick search on Dstwo forum http://forum.supercard.sc/thread-11317-1-1.html
