Where to buy R4i card in UK?

November 23rd, 2011 John Leave a comment Go to comments

Many have been searching reliable suppliers of R4i in the UK after it has been removed from the amazon.co.uk. Finding a trusted online merchant providing the R4 has not been easy, given so many dodgy dealers around. Some rely on forums such as GBAtemp to get help from others when looking for a good place to buy. Some turn to their local shops for the R4i cards. However, the local shops do not have consistent supply and they charge a lot more than the online shops!

For UK buyers looking for R4i cards with express delivery from UK and abroad, you may want to check out the following merchants. We have compared their products and services with other merchants on a few occassions. Their services do live to our expecations despite a few glitches such as mis-picking product. The good thing is that when we contact them about the problem, they sorted out the issue by sending us a replacement unit fairly quickly. Excellent value for money. Overall, highly recommended if you're looking for a Christmas gift idea !

Make sure that you choose a model compatible with 3DS firmware V1.1.0-1E, V2.0.0-2E, V2.1.0-3E & V2.2.0-4E/U and DSi XL firmware 1.4.1, 1.4.2 & 1.4.3. Unlike its predecessor, R4i SDHC 3DS (red) does not become obsolete upon the firmware releases of V1.1.0-1 for the 3DS and 1.4.2 for the DSi / DSi XL. With a kernel / firmware update on the R4i SDHC 3DS card, it will run smoothly on 3DS with the firmware up to V2.2.0.4 E and DSi / DSi XL with firmware 1.4.3E. It is quite a big step forward for R4 3DS.
