    I got a NDS Lite but I'm not sure what type of R4 is the most reliable and supported, any help?

    Don't be an ignorant noob. Don't be a lemming. Don't buy an R4.

    Do some homework. Plenty of better cards out there.

    I'll second the Acekard 2i. It's a great card and will work just fine on DS Lite. (I'm not really impressed by the DSi).

    You can pick up at a few reputable retailers.

    www.dealextreme.com will be pretty cheap but expect to wait awhile for shipping.
    www.dscardworld.com is great too, they'll cost a tad more but you'll get it sooner if you don't live in China and great support out of those guys.

    Acekard2i is the best. Golden Award.
    Too much R4 cards. If you do like R4, then I recommend R4i SDHC.

    www.R4mart.com is good.

    I used NDS-Gear.co.uk myself and had no problems, but I heard some good things about DSCardWorld too.

    A friend got a few cards from memorybits - their R4i cards are ok but they sell fake iEDGE cards, watch out for those.

    great card , works with all the games for DS or DSI that i have. the program is easy to use . it seems fast enough for me even if some people say it's slow. many preferences and options in the firmware.

    Well you did not expect much then!!

    Avoid anything with R4 in the title.

    Buy a reliable card that does not use the reputation of another to enhance its poor offering.

    Remember if it was any good it would not be called R4!

    Yes,that's too expensive. The Acekard 2i Multimedia TF Card just meets my needs.
    Has someone tried that site?Link The delivery takes a long time, but the price is worth your waiting.
