Hey guys. Just bought a ds lite and am wondering which one of these flash carts are better? also, do i need a superpass or superkey with these carts? if so which one? any information would be great. thanks.
Depends what you want it for. If you plan on using homebrew at all, get a Supercard Lite. If you don't, the EZIV Lite is a good choice because of it's superior GBA support. Read my EZIV guide if you want more info on the EZIV Lite.
Want an honest advice from someone who was in the same position as you?
Well, check out the G6 Lite package from divineo.com that comes included with the required passcard. The G6 Lite has unrivalled GBA and DS rom support.
EZ4 and supercard are cheap but crappy alternatives. Both have shaky support for DS and GBA roms as compared to G6 and M3.
I wouldn't say that the EZIV has 'shaky' support, it just lacks homebrew support and uses external memory whereas the G6 has better homebrew support and uses internal memory, it user preference.
The supercard on the otherhand does have 'shaky' support for GBA games, but DS games work well enough.
EZIV supports all GBA games and almost all DS games. I wouldn't call it shaky in the least. The only downside to the EZIV is that it can't read media nearly as fast as the M3 and Supercard. Also, it lacks homebrew because the EZ Flash team won't release the I/O source code for it. Homebrewers want to program for it, but without the source, they're limited. The main problem is that they haven't gotten the write code yet, as the read code was released with Moonshell's source code.
thanks guys for all your information. i'm going to go for the supercard lite microsd. as for which passkey i should get. which one is better? SuperKey or Passcode 3? what is the difference?
Just get a Superkey since you're getting a SuperCard. Sometimes different nopass devices lock out competitors, so you're better off just getting whatever nopass is made by the same group.
