i notice now that the r4 v2 doesn't have the spring mechanism like the cyclods

the differences are moot now

I've just ordered 2 r4v2 for my boss's kids for their christmas pressies.

well, i'm looking for the cyclods over the R4, due to R4 only covers upto 2gb (at the mo) there are also rumours that some games might not run on R4 , and some games runs slower

Great collection of games here DS at GAME.co.uk

Thats where every one gets them from?

There are other slightly dodgy places to get them from like that big bay with pirates in it

Some people even use copies but i dont know anything about them and I am sure no one would ever talk about them on this thread otherwise the mods would delete it!

I recently bought one for my daughter but my wife uses it more.

Although we really shouldn't discuss playing pirated copies on the boards theres always the PM button.

My inbox is empty if anyone fancies helping me out with my R4.

Rough figures, but 235 games each x 6 dvds x £20 avr per game = £28k and you're worrying about 20p for a disc.

My wife's DS arrived last night (two bundle package from Game).

So far she's pleased.

Just waiting for the R4 card to arrive.
