Sun, 03/02/2008 - 13:19 — mario
Team R4 has finalized the newest version of the R4DS and has released it into the wild! The version 3 of the R4DS is set to be released on March 10, 2008 and will support microSDHC cards and multi-language support! This means you'll be able to buy a 8gb microSDHC if you want. This top of the line DS SLOT-1 cartridge is an amazing little device that will allow you to play movies, mp3s, read comic books, surf the web, cheat codes and many more! We've put our pre-order in for this device and will write a review for it once it arrives. If you need more info on the R4DS, read our previous post on the v2 of the R4DS.
The newest R4DS is available for pre-order now.

I just got mine in the mail
I just got mine in the mail from amazon. it works great and is quite awesome, but must be real. it is not a rsd4 v3. thats what i ordered, but all it says on the box is R4 - IIupgrade. The CD inside comes with kernel 1.16 and it works with everything minus the FFCCproblems. I still say its worth a buy, but NOT a v3.
Yeah i received mine in the
Yeah i received mine in the mail as well from amazon, and it just says R4 II upgrade, though this piece of paper that came with it says "R4 V3" but only there. only problem i'm having is the fact that some games keep freezing a few mins after i start them, i reformated the micro SD to FAT32 like the paper says, but it continued, i think it maybe the r4 itself, i'll try again and if it continues i can exchange it
R4 v3 real or fake?
UPDATE: The R4 v3 could very possibly be fake as there is no official news from the R4 team themselves. Amazon is selling what they claim to be R4DS v3 so we assumed it was available. If anyone ordered one of these R4 v3 units, please let us know if it's the real deal.
Just to confirm, I purchased
Just to confirm, I purchased this from Amazon and it does indeed have SDHC support.
this is a rip off. no info
this is a rip off. no info from the REAL r4 team has information about this. be weary. about purchasing
WTH -- Which one is better?
Most people tell me to go with the R4, now these comments say it's crap.. WTH. I've never even heard of the CycloDS or Acekard. I've used my friends R4 before and it seems to play everything we throw at it. Are there skins available for the other cards? Why are these cards so low end? Because of the price or do they just break after a while?
lol
Not really a big deal. 2GB is more than enough for DS games. Acekard is definitely THE top, much better than the shitty cyclo
top of the line, dont make me laugh
the r4 is the bottom of the barrel not the top of the line, cards like the cyclo ds evolution have better compatability and a featurelist that makes the r4 look like an old slot 2 device, whats worse is the modern low end cards like the toptoy and edge card already do everything the r4 v3 does at a lower cost if you want an r4 like featureless card.
avoid like the plague and buy a modern card or a premium one instead.
R4 is not 'top line'
The R4 is not a 'top of the line' cart. The premium one is CycloDS Evolution, read our reviews at GBAtemp.net :)
UK?
Will this be available on the Amazon UK site on March 10th?
EMZ=]
Probably.
Not sure. Amazon UK carries more R4s then Amazon US so I'm assuming they probably will have it then.
