R4 Cards Revolutionise The Use Of Nintendo DS & DSLites

Posted by admin in R4 Cards on March 6th, 2010 | No Comments


The original 1st generation R4 Cards somewhat developed and took the Nintendo DS & DSLite to a whole new level, allowing the user to use homebrew games and applications, download photos, play games, play music and so much more on their Nintendo DS & DSLite.

By simply inserting a microsd or microsdhc memory card into the R4 cartridge you open up a whole new world of things you can do with this ever popular gaming device. The R4′s being SDHC compatible will accept from a 2GB microsd card to a 32GB microsdhc memory card.

You can also back up your current collection of games onto one small microsdhc memory card meaning you dont have to take all your games with you for convenience.
