The original title of the article is "Is MIG Switch being sued?" but I wanted to make it less clickbaity.

The article by Wololo goes into more detail.

About 3 months ago, the EZ Flash Parallel was released in China, and more recently, the flashcart was released globally for all. Unfortunately, this cart has been plagued with issues like GPL violations, game compatibility issues and build quality issues. For the price, this is disappointing to see. Lifehackerhansol has a nice write up about it which I have linked here, any thoughts?

We now have a new site dedicated to flashcarts called flashcarts.net! This is where you can find the DS/GBA Quick Start Guides. If you would like to contribute and add more pages to the site, feel free to open a pull request/issue on our GitHub page: https://github.com/flashcarts/wiki

I have issues mit my GB USB Smartcard 64M. I am using ems-qart software under linux. The software doesnt find the card (screenshot attached)

This is the message in the terminal:

Failed to open device, libusb error: LIBUSB_ERROR_IO Failed to open device, libusb error: LIBUSB_ERROR_NO_DEVICE Could not find device, is it plugged in?

As I can see with lsusb, it is acutally there:

Bus 001 Device 009: ID 4670:9394 EMS Production Game Cube USB Memory Adaptor 64M

Starting ems-qart as root doesnt solve the issue. I checked the cable, and used three different ones... but always the same behaviour.

Any Ideas?

The stock r4i-sdhc.com 1.85b kernel timebomb was removed thanks to the reverse-engineering efforts of kynex7510 from the Nintendo Homebrew server.

This means that if you prefer to use the stock kernel for these carts rather than YSMenu, you can now do so. It also has fake card checks removed, so it works on any cart that is able to run the R4i-SDHC YSMenu - including carts from r4i-sdhc.com, r4isdhc.com, r4i-gold.eu, and others.

Pros over YSMenu:

• Arguably better UI - (depends on personal opinion)
• Supports more games: romhacks and some games may work where YSMenu doesn't.
• Has RTS with in-game menu (Real-Time-Save, AKA Save States)

Cons:

• Cheats menu sometimes breaks
• Cheats are sometimes unstable
• RTS implementation is unstable

Hello, I'm in the process of making this small site that will quickly tell you which kernels to download. Unfortunately life is getting in the way but I'd figure I'd show off what I have, in case it's useful to anyone else as it covers some of the current easily-obtainable clones.

I'm open to suggestions on more carts to add, or contributions in the forms of pictures or software. My goal is to make this a sort of visual guide, where users match their flashcarts to the pics on the site to find the kernel they need. I'm also looking for a way to store and add pictures without screwing up the site. I was thinking of hosting super-compressed 256x256 images of front+back of all the flashcarts, but idk I have no experience in web design. Let me know what you think.

A while ago, r4isdhc.com stopped paying for their domain so the site went down. This meant, however, that their kernel downloads ceased to exist.

r4i-sdhc.com (who I believe are probably the same company) started hosting a "new" version of the r4isdhc.com kernel for 2014+ carts, version 4.1b.

Good thing is that the kernel no longer has a timebomb! Bad thing is that it cannot launch games or homebrew...

This doesn't apply to any other cart previously sold by r4isdhc.com, only the 2014+ carts. Older carts do not use the same kernel.

If you have a 2014+ cart from r4isdhc.com and need the kernel for it, you have two options:

1. Download and install YSMenu from retrogamefan: https://gbatemp.net/threads/retrogamefan-updates-releases.267243/ - Unlike the stock kernel, YSMenu does not have a timebomb!
2. Download the old timebomb kernel, this will expire sometime in September 2024 so keep that in mind: [flashcard-archive GitHub](https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/flashcard-archive/raw/archiv
