*allows children to have tons of games they otherwise couldn't afford*Piracy is so based. Fuck Greedtendo.
I had that exact model tooLoved that they tried to claim it was for homebrew micro projects, every single one i tried was dogshit so it was just a theft device anyway
>>748423561>Nintendo sends ultimatum to all electronic stores that selling this will put them on a blacklist and they wont be able to sell any Nintendo hardware or software anymore>they all comply>instead of dissapearing, R4 cards pop up in penny stores, grocery stores or even gas stationsfunniest shit
>>748423695i knew a kid who actually listened music and watched movies on that 144p DS screen with it
>>748423561Mine is a cheap knock-off that still works fine as long as I set my DS date to like 2011, they came with planned obsolescence so you'd buy the newer model.
>>748423827 256 × 192
>>748423773Based as fuck
I had the M3 flashcart, which was pretty cool. It came with a cartridge for the GBA slot that added rumble (for Metroid Prime Hunters) and extra RAM, so I could use the Opera web browser. I used it a lot for listening to music and writing school stuff on that PDA homebrew, MoonDS, I think. There was also a homebrew that let me read CBR comics.
>>748423773There was a guy selling them at my local market in the 2000s
This buckbreaks pc vegans
>>748423561This was a good thing. I used to buy games myself as I could afford them as I was working at the time but I bought 4 of these for all my younger siblings so they could play all the games they wanted to play.
>>748423561I remember Nintendo sperging out about these and it pretty much fast tracked them into making 3DS (which also got broken)
>>748424123>Games? What would you want to play games on it?
>this buckbroke nintendoI'm a huge nintendofag but if i didnt have this i'd never buy 6 other nintendo consoles, dsi with r4 was like a gateway drug for me and i think in the long run r4 cards helped nintendo more than it did harm
>>748424243>r4 cards helped nintendo more than it did harmThey did. War on piracy is completely performative.It only exists because of a bunch of boomer/kikes demanding more profit out of nothing and useless lawyers trying to justify their employment.
I got on the R4 train pretty early and didn't think that much of it as it remained very niche for ages, considering the average person was to clueless to figure out how to find and download roms to a micro-SD. But I knew shit was fucked and out of control when the most tech illiterate parents were just buying pre-loaded R4s from Asian discount stores with the sticker replaced with like "50 Games" and the micro-SD card glued in.
are the 3DS R4 cards worth getting?i used to see them on Amazon back in 2015 and it always looked like a scam to me
>>748424234I'd argue the 3DS never got truly broken, as Nintendo was able to roll out 3DS updates via internet and new games just as quick as the R4 team broke it. So you could have a broken 3DS, but it was always be out of date and you could only play games that had been out for ages. I had a broken 3DS for a bit, but it was not worth having to avoid online features and new games.
>>748424892>are the 3DS R4 cards worth gettingNo, just hack your 3ds.
>>748424892They are now, as the 3DS is no longer receiving updates and new games that would detect latest version of the R4But at the time of the 3DS's peak, it just wasn't worth keeping up with the software update arms race.
>>748424937>3DS never got truly brokenWhat would you call this?
>>748424892Buddy, they're just r4 cards, 3ds r4 cards are a scam since 3ds can play ds games theyre full of ds games, you need to hack your 3ds
>>748424892No, just hack it with Luma3DS
>>748424937You are delusional, it's even easier to break it than the DS now
>>748425176this is why phoneposting should be banned, they don't even read the full conversation before replying
>>748423561>r4 for DS>PSP battery exploityou truly lived like a king if you were a piratefag with both handhelds
>>748423561>R4 and other flashcarts>wii hack>surely they will learn>3ds hack>wii u hack>surely they will learn >switch hack (and emulator on top)>surely this timeYou are here.And the reason why "game key cards" exist are listed above. So if you're a paying customer, you are currently paying for Nintendo's past mistakes. LOL
>>748425120Oh wow, you're using a system Nintendo no longer sells, supports or pushes updates to and hackers have had over a decade to break unopposed Nintendo doesn't give a shit
Why do pirates feel like they're in the right?
>>748425424what point are you even trying to make? you're completely lost
Flashcarts these days are such a fucking joke. The EZ flash omega is designed for pokemon. No one needs a flashcart for GBA for anything else. Luckily the flashcart also contains a sort of gameshark or AR. The main website even distributes a cheat folder with cheats for every GBA game.Every single pokemon cheat is in fucking chinese.There are no decent efforts to fix this. No regular gameshark or AR codes don't work you have to fucking convert them.
>>748424234>Add SD card slot>Think piracy isn't going to happenDumb old Nintendo. That said, the fucking flash cart revolution was wild. It was like an arms race.>Cyclo DS Evolution was the cart that let you bypass the TWEWY anti-piracy freeze and just 100% worked for everything (at least, mine did) >R4s were falling out of the sky and the dollar store had them for 10 bucks labeled as Game Memory Cards for a DSFun times
>>748425468They're trolling
>>748425217>>748425176I doubt you posers were even part of the modding scene when the 3DS was actually relevant. Breaking a 3DS now is only easy because Nintendo stopped caring and modders caught up. No one ever managed to find a firmware proof method of breaking your 3DS that could play new games on the day they released.
>>748423589Does it really benefit children to give them tons of games? When you only have a few, each one of them is a memorable experience. When you have hundreds, you can just bounce from game to game and rarely stick to one.
>>748425738The 3DS was never relevant, so it was not an issue
>>748425246>Had a M3 DS Real way back and it was a shit tier flash card>PSP hacked for Monster Hunter and God Eater>Burnt CDs for Dreamcast libraryPeak gaming on a budget
>>748425441Yar har, fiddle de dee / Being a pirate is alright to be / Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free / You are a pirate!
>>748423695yea I also have this one2GB is sorta enough for me, I don't need 100 games installed at once
>>748425807It gives them the ability to choose their favourites. Me and my siblings had R4 cards and it helped me enjoy games I would've never bought.E.g. as a kid I would never have asked for brain training but I loved playing it on r4
>>748424123I already have a phone thoughI would prefer a system with games
>>748423561I stopped buying nintendo consoles when it couldnt do piracy with online play like DS/3DS
>>748424514I remember seeing an episode of the AVGN where he shows off his DS games like Contra 4 and stuff and remember thinking like "oh yeah, DS games are actually sold like that".To be fair I'd love to collect more DS games, even back then, I bought an R4 because the selection of DS games in my country was utterly abysmal. If it wasn't Pokémon or Mario then it was just kiddy shit like those Imagine games, Anita, shitty racing games and entire shelves completely lined end to end with Cars 2.
>>748424892Not even in the slightest. You've been able to softmod it for nearly a decade now without any requirements whatsoever. Flashcarts right now only exist for the DS and DSi. There is zero reason to use them on the 3DS as you can run DS roms straight off your SD card and DSiware can be installed natively. The only reason you would use them is to save space on you SD card on your 3DS since the highest you can go to is 128GB due to cluster size issues leading to massive load times or crashes past that.
The amount of delusional Nintendofags who think they are one-up over PC are insane.
>>748425441YO HO YO HO A PIRATE'S LIFE FOR ME!
>>748425807>Does it really benefit children to give them tons of gamesyesglad to solve your dilemma
>>748426123I don't want to hack my 3DSI like all its legit software some of which I got with club nintendo points from old gamecube games
>>748425640>Flashcarts these days are such a fucking joke.You realize the Pico is what everyone uses now, right? It's not only open source but it's like $10 because of that, has no timebomb, works natively on every system, loads three times as fast as the old cartridges, autoboots on a DSi (No idea why there's no autoboot on DS, the R4 could do it), runs on unhacked 3DS systems, and many many more improvements. Every single other flashcart has been made irrelevant ever since that thing came out because it's objectively the best on the market and will be for the foreseeable future. They even just made a variant of it for IR for the people who own a Pokewalker.
>>748426231Hey anonThe ez flash omega is for GBAI have a woodclone with no time bombI also know more about embedded arm than you dont say the word pico in front of me
>>748425246I 'member downloading a rom of MHP3rd and trying to just straight up install it to my psp memory card like that would work lol, never did figure it out
>>748426191This anon has ADHD
>>748426306says the phonetoddler
>>748426225>I don't want to hack my 3DSYes you do. You can use translation patches, on a N3DS you get significantly better performance, you gain access to playing DS, DSi, and 3DS from your SD card, you gain on-the-fly patching of mods for games including translation patches, you get access to backing up your cartridge saves and digital saves, you gain access to the best way to emulate the Virtual Boy at all, you gain access to native screenshot tools, you gain access to a better keyboard, you gain access to custom themes, and more.Having a legit 3DS or Vita is like having a legit PSP: You are being dumb for no reason and actively making your experience worse for yourself. You can't even get banned on the 3DS as Nintendo only did that for people breaking street date for either Pokemon ORAS or USUM and otherwise don't care (You can even sync your NNID to your Switch with foreign games you shouldn't be able to even play and it won't do anything). On the Playstation side unless you are on a PS4 onward only like two game series on the PS3 can even detect it (GTA and CoD) because they have specific implementations to do so to stop cheaters. They never cared on PSP or Vita unless you blatantly cheated which you can't even do nowadays.>>748426272You're right, I got it mixed up with the V and Parallel. Yeah, GBA is basically the Omega DE or an Everdrive for twice the price. I really wish someone would appear like the Pico guys and just do that for all systems so we wouldn't have to be at the mercy of either Everdrives, year old flashcarts, or the Chinese doing stuff like EZ-Flash where they immediately drop support even though their stuff has known issues. The Wonderswan is still relying on some flashcart from like 15 years ago.
>>748426560No I don't. Its my old 3DS XL and I like it the way it is.
Tendies seething ITT
I played the entire Ace Attorney trilogy and Apollo Justice using that flashcard.
>>748426898How do yoh feel taking money out of Nintendo's pocket, you piece of shit?
>>748426829maybe I should give this a play
>>748425703It makes me laugh how every Nintendo console gets immediately modded
>>748423561>had one of these as a kid>me and my friends were all into pokemon at the time>got to show off the gen V pokemon games months before they actually released in my country>everyone thought it was cool as fuck>games also came with a bunch of cheat codes bundled in>eventually used those to distribute hacked pokemon out to my friends>one of them still has the shiny staraptor i gave him over 15 years laterloved that little card
>>748424892No.The "R4 3DS" cards are just R4 cards. They do NOT play 3DS games.
>>748423561Still have mine but it finally bit the dust
>>748424238Nintendies call themselves pc vegans because their glorified phone bricks are gameless
>>748428896Tendies and their newfound vendetta against PC is really funny especially after years of PCtendo spam on /v/.These fuckers really just need a eternal enemy and since snoys have been laughed out of /v/ and xdrones keep to themselves they choose to fight PC wich is basically like pic related
>>748423561This assfucked them
>>748429368Those are switchsnoys, so it makes sense.
>>748425807A 1gb sd card could only hold like 14 games at a time though
>>748423561When will the same for switch2?
>>748423561And the 4.5 milly lawsuit buckbroke (You)what of it?
>>748423561Its based but>choice paralysis>miss out on building a collection of physical copies
>>748430075That's the sweet spot desu. Enough that you have choice, but not so much that you have hoice paralysis.
>>748423561I had like 100 games and its thanks to this I ended up becoming a fan of a of on 'tendo's games unironicallyplus some random ones like professor layton, phoenix wright and such that id never have tried otherwise.I dont know where it is anymore, I had 2 cases full of games for the gameboy and DS and the R4 but theyre just gone
>>748429967>Those are switchsnoyswhat
>>748429368Its because they think they "beat" PlayStation
>>748430360Switch fans behave like snoys like you pointed out. Because they're mostly former snoys.
>>748430640you know it kind of makes sense, especially due to how many fags in the famitsu threads admit they never played a pre Switch Nintendo system and are mostly experiencing it through NSOwhat kind of self respecting poster here hasnt played atleast 1 pre Wii Nintendo game on original hardware
>>748423773Where were you that you could find flash cards in the wild? I always had to order them online.
>>748424123no?
>>748425807As a kid, I had one and played each game since I had loads of time. As an adult I hardly play every game due to lack of time, so yes.
>>748431406You share a board with a literal horde of latinx filth.
All consoles should have their libraries opened up for free at the end of the generation. If it isn’t realistically going to generate significant revenue anymore, then there is no argument against free distribution. Flash carts are an amazing gift.
>>748431406NetherlandsLike i said i saw this things eventually pop up at gas stations and small phone repair shops
>>748431804That would have been convenient. When I was a teenager, I had to convince my parents to let me order one from a sketchy Chinese store online.
>>748424123>entire library can me emulated for free at higher resolutions, higher frame rates, and with modsI mean, at least you tried?
>>748423827Of course I know him he is me. I spent a shit load of time in cars/buses and watched a fuck load of anime thanks to these
>>748424123>Implying I'm not PC+Nintendo console master raceLol
>>748432369>+>master race
>>748432029on what emulator?
>>748423827he is me, i watched converted avgn eps in my college library in-between classes
>>748425807Not so sure about that. My parents giving me a R4 in 2008 full of pirated games at the fine age of 9 made me try a lot of games from different genres, that's how I got into ace attorney, trauma center, jump ultimate stars, dragon quest, kirby and more. I would've never been able to develop my taste or liking to videogames had I stuck to what my friends at school were playing (dudebro stuff) so I'm really grateful.
>>748424937>the 3DS never got truly brokenAnon...The 3DS has an unpatchable bootrom flaw across all models. All it takes is a specially set up R4(like in the op) and a freaking magnet.
>>748432472Yes. The idort master race
>>748434278With your no games?
