I've beat Faxanadu in one (long) sitting. I've never played Halo. As a child, I nick named the second gun upgrade in Stinger "Potty Pot Shot" as the bullets are round and reminded me of toilet bowls. I believe in video game violence, a friend knocked me out cold at age 12, we we're practicing our Dragon Punch's. I've rented Brittany's Dance Beat....twice. Zelda 2 is amazing, and so is Simon's Quest.

R4 for DS
thelowestpartisfree \| 11:29 AM on 09.19.2007	11 comments

Does anyone use this?

http://www.r4ds.com/r4.htm

I want to get this primarily for emulating SNES and if you can PSX.
Is this possible? Is it easy to use? Can I have some Pizza rolls?
Please help so I can play Chrono Trigger while taking a dump at work!

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I'm getting one soon for sure. Cannot wait!

Lots of people have it around here. Doubtful about the PSX, but there is a version of ScummVM for it if you like the old Lucasarts adventure games.

PSX emulation is impossible on the DS. SNES emulation still has a few quirks. A Sega Genesis emu is also getting pretty good. The R4 needs a micro-sd card too if you don't know (I'm assuming you do.)

As for the shadier side of the R4, backup and download play compatability are ~99%, and it has a built in jpg/video player, and mp3/ebook support as well.

Good buy no matter what you plan on using it for.

I've got one and it's awesome. It lets me carry about 16 of my "backed-up" games on the DS at once. I find it very useful for playing games I'd otherwise have to import. I installed a SNES emulator on it, but it didn't work so well. Chrono Trigger and Secret Of Mana had layers missing and so on, but there could've been a patch since then.

Considering getting one, a microSD and a reader costs the same price as a game I'd say get it.

Thank you guys, maybe I'll hold out till I hear more positive about emulation.

I have one. It's great. I use it like Mr. Fudge. It also does music. I don't use it for emulation though, just my DS games and music. For that it's perfect. I downloaded some games I thought I'd like and ended up being very thankful I didn't waste my money on them. The R4 is very good for that, since there are very few demos of DS games to be had.

I've not had any problems whatsoever with my R4. Never had a problem with the microSD cards. I dunno what happened to ReapRar's R4.

Mine just came in the mail a few days ago. Thats all well and good but gameyeeeah.com forgot to include the micro SD card that I ordered along with it so I'll probably have to wait at least another week to use it. I've heard mixed reviews over the emulation. This site might give you an idea though.
