We have the R4 Clone which supports SDHC. Quite a few customers asked about this one. We have some available online now. We tested them and they seemed to be okay.

We do not like clones that much, but some customers asked for them. We made it clear on our web site that these were not from the original Team R4.

For the R4 lover, you can get this one to have more memory.

Very glad that you specifically mark it as being a clone and use bold red text to state it isn't an official R4 product.  Thank you for never trying to intentionally mislead your customers.

Dammit it sucks that they even blatently cloned the official R4DS website graphics and text too  Angry

thanks for the warning RHS that these are not LEGIT R4DS cards but CLONES Smiley

its just a shame that its a well known brand they blatently cloned/ripped it off without even an attempt to change the name Sad

Read this. This is some VERY serious information. Basically the answer from the official R4 team is an update coming after Sept 15th that will apparently (purposely) brick the user's DS! I wonder if this card will be affected. Just a heads up RHS. You may want to avoid sales of these if this is the case, as the potential of having customer issues may come up after September. Not sure if this card will be affected, but just a friendly heads up Smiley

We clearly stated that the software from R4 will not work on these. We don't think this will be an issue. We thank you for the information. We carry these only because some customers asked for them.

I read that GBATemp thread, and I think it's another victim of Google Translate. It doesn't specifically say they will deliberately brick your DS(which I don't think it even possible), but I think it's more of a warning similar to Nintendo's Wii update warnings. "If you have a clone it may brick your system and if it does it's not our fault."
