    R4i, DSTTi, acekardi is meant to be good - anything with an i on the end basically is for the DSi. Most when u buy them have the option of what size card you want and it comes with a card reader for the PC.

    here's a site i used for mine : http://consolemodshop.com/shop/inde...Path=4&zenid=3ff180613f8beca079188101322b90d6 say u saw him on Techno-source and ask if he'll do free delivery. Otherwise, most computer type shops flog them. 2gb is enough for me, she only has about 10 - 15 games on it

    You get a usb card reader with the R4i cards, all you need then is a mini SD card. Not sure about the R4i cards but the R4 cards for the old DS's could only take a maximum card of 4gig in size.

    Think the R4 cards are about £15 and then uc an get a 4gig mini sd card for about £4

    Have u tried upgrading your firmware?

    just email them direct. how old is the Wii? Laz got a Wiikey but on recent model of theWii itself, they've started putting epoxy on thechip so it couldn't clip on. i think the wasabii works different. they're well friendly, just ask in the email and ask for free postage as you've seen them on that site




    look for the patched one, works fine on my R4 didn't need to update the firmware. i've got it if u want it ;)

    It's a microSD card you need for the ds. I'm assuming it's the same for the DSi?

    dsi ones are for dsi's, NDS ones are for the original DS

    otherwise, yes just drop them on the root of the card
