Ever since the group that gave us the first R4 disbanded in 2008, the Nintendo DSi games scene has been flooded with different versions of the R4 flashcard. Each one claims to be as good as the original and each ones comes with a sky-high price quote. Although most of these products are second-rate versions that give you only short term satisfaction, the R4i flashcard – a version that has been released only recently – has a lot to offer and comes with features that are a cut above the rest.
Typically, if you are out to buy an R4i product, you have to step cautiously, as many copies do not support firmware upgrades, and you might be stuck with a flashcard that is unable to update the firmware. Point to note here is that five firmware updates have already been released since the new R4i release. However, this is never a cause of worry with the R4i flashcard, as it is based on the AceKard firmware, which in turn is modeled on the original R4 firmware, and is also well known for its compatibility.
A great choice is the R4i Ultra flashcard – its design has striking parallels to the original R4, and proves to be a superb augmentation peripheral for your Nintendo DSi gamer. It not only increases your gaming abilities but also incorporates several multimedia add-ons, converting your handheld into a multifaceted gadget.
