When it comes to the R4i Advance, we do receive a lot of emails from customers wondering exactly which model of the R4 DS they need. With several different R4 DS units on the market, it can get confusion. But in reality, it is actually quite simple.
There are really only 2 things to consider when you’re looking to buy the r4i advance. The first consideration in making your decision is probably the very easiest. Do you own a Nintendo DS or Nintendo DS Lite? If so, then you need the original R4 DS Card. If you own a Nintendo DSi, well, the original R4 DS Card simply won’t work for you. You’ll need to go with the R4i Advance in order to use the features and functions of the R4 Card. The original R4 DS Cards were made / developed long before the Nintendo DSi was even a drawing on paper. For this reason, they did not have it built into their design.
The second thing to consider when you’re buying your R4 DS is whether or not you’ll be upgrading to the Nintendo DSi console in the future. The R4i Advance is fully compatible with the NDSi console – and backwards compatible with the Nintendo DS / DS Lite consoles too. But the original R4 DS Card however is NOT compatible with the new NDSi consoles – and support wil not be added for it in the future.
Using the selection below, Buy R4 DS Card that is right for your console.
