is the r4ds any good?

i need a way to play roms.. mostly just gba and gbc roms.. is the r4ds the way to go or what about the m3? do i need one of those passcards to play gba and gbc?

 

hello the r4ds is one of the best slot one devices for playing nintendo ds roms !

for gameboy advance /colour you will need a slot 2 device , this is what i bought for my daughter -

p.s. the supercard / superkey will also play nintendo ds roms .

hope that helped woof811.

 

R4 wont work with GBA and GBC roms at all, since it goes in slot 1. supercard will work with them but not very well. youd be best off getting an m3 lite (or another slot 2 model of m3 if you dont have a ds lite). and youll also need a passcard 3 in order to play DS roms

 

i got a ds lite..
so a m3 lite and a passcard 3 will do?
do i need to download any emulators or do i just add the roms?
can u play snes also?

 

Who needs GBA games. I just got the R4 and it works great.

 

Where would i get an r4 ds in the uk?
