wow much better then the deals i saw. same deals i just saw were 80$ on this site its half the price. but idk should i get the pack that comes with a 1 gb or the 2gb. like do u think 1 gb would be enough. i plan on putting a lot of games on my DS. so if games take a lot of room then i might need 2 gb. wut do u think is a good deal?

Get the 1GB Kingston Japan microSD if you want to play Castlevania w/o freezes.

But otherwise I'd go with a 2GB, they aren't that much more, and hold so many games (I've got like 15 on mine, with much room to spare)

This is where I got mine, the 2GB bundle is a Kingston Japan(so no worries about some trouble games). The 1GB bundle is a Kingston Taiwan High Speed(supposedly the same speeds as Japan). A great site, especially for Canadian shoppers.

62 dollars for a 1GB combo? Dealextreme has a 2GB combo for the same price. And I'm guessing shipping isn't inclusive.

I can fit 20+ ROMs on my 1GB card, once they're trimmed, and haven't had any games that had problems with being trimmed.

And, the R4 isn't as fussy with which SD you use (the Supercard IS). I've tried at least 15 games (including PoR) on two different SD cards (one Sandisk and one Kingston) and have seen no slowdown on ANYTHING, including the PoR intro.

1 gigabyte is plenty. The standard DS game is 16 or 32 MB. Some are more or less. Resident Evil is in the hundreds, but most games are 32 or 16. That'll fit 30 games easily. Do you intend to play more than 30 games simultaneously?

1 GB is fine. I have 20 DS Games, a Genesis Emu with 3 games, a Gameboy Color Emu with 9 games, and a SNES Emu with 5 Games and I still have like 40 MB free on my 1 GB Kingston (Its a Taiwan High Speed one, no lag at all)

Google is your friend.

Can't really say much more about that on this forum.

hold on this is a question thats been worrying me. i still didnt order a R4 because of this question. when u download the DS games are they the full game? i mean like some things have been cut out so it fits small things like sound or multiplayer. and if u download wifi games on the R4 can u still use wifi? and my last question do the games u downloaded run perfectly on the R4? i mean like they would play exactly how they would of if u bought the real game? and those are the last of my questions plz answer these. once u do i promise ill finally put this topic and thread to rest.

It all depends on the game you download. Yet from what I have heard the Multiplayer online for the games does NOT work, but the wireless LAN does.

(Like, so you couldnt play with someone 4 hours away in mariocart, but you could play with your buddy beside you.)
