Biggest reason I'd use an R4 card

Post by Anayo »

The biggest reason I'd use an R4 card or similar device would be to play two card multiplayer mode without requiring me to buy two copies of the same game. For example, Mario Kart DS is a blast, but the single card mode has very few tracks and racers available.

It's a very good reason. I personally got one because i wont pay 60 bucks for Dragon Quest V. Ive been very happy with it.

I rock an Acekard 2i myself, mainly because I don't like carrying around all my games with me.
If you aren't having a good time, why are you playing?

Contrary to what appears to be popular opinion, everything doesn't just belong in 'General Gaming' by default. Please be more mindful of where you create new threads please.

I like using them so I can carry all my games in just one cart. No need to swap games all the time. I do like owning the games I have on my card though.
Thanks everyone...

The best reason for flashcarts is fan translations.

(Bolded and italicised to make it seem more important.)

Why, of course! Why wouldn't there be any?

Saga 2 and Tales of Innocence are two translations I can think of at the moment which have been completed.

I wish someone would translate Blood of Bahamut though.
