what do I need to buy?

#1 12 Dec 2012 @ 23:31
I have just purchased 2 3ds's for my kids. I came across sites about an r4 card and other things to get free games. What are all the items I need to buy for the free games and Where to purchase them from? what site do I get the games from? Do I have to purchase 2 of everything since it will be for 2 3ds's?

You need to get a flash cart to play DS games, recommend you buy r4i gold 3ds from dsflashcart.com, this card can work on your 3ds latest firmware, yeah, if you want to use them at the same time, you need to buy two of them. about sites to download game roms, i think is is not allowed in this forum.

Is that the only thing I need to buy? I was looking on the gamezway (is this a good site) site and just the card is $15.50. Do I also need a SD card? If so how many games and stuff does the 4gb ($8.50) and 8gb ($14.50) hold?
Thanks!

You also need to buy a micro sd card if you don't have one. the number of games really depends on the size of your games. 4g sd card is enough for me, i can put about 50 games on it.
