this is truly amazing. i think i and all the gbatemp owe you (the staff) an amazing amount of gratitude, just to be able to buy a flash cart and no it wont be fake or mis-sold is good enough but the prices

loving this store the prices seem extremely fair. interface is good. just wondering why everyone is so upset they are selling r4s. r4s I get they had a lot of trouble with bad clones and they ran into legal issues and they aren't really supported anymore but they work for the majority of the games don't they? what is the problem?

There is probably noone who will agree with me, but I find this a horrible idea. Running a site about scene releases is one thing, but using it to promote a commercial store is another. I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo used the first chance they get to bring both down by legal means.

Since the GBAtemp team doesn't run or own ShopTemp, that shouldn't be a problem. Our relationship to ShopTemp isn't much different than that of the previous affiliates (in terms of we advertise, they supply the site with revenue), and we never had any trouble supporting them.

Check the stickies in the shoptemp forum section.

What's this about Modchips being temporarily removed? Will I still get my Supercard DSTWO?
You will, it's only about the Wii modchips, as far as I know.

Oh...modchips AREN'T flashcards...I feel like a right wolly now...

Luckily our Wii's soft-modded already (YAY!)

To tell you the truth, I don't see why anyone would buy from here. The shipping is awful, the prices are sub-par, and there's no good reason to shop here as opposed to anywhere else.

The shipping is the same as from any shop based in Hong Kong or China, the prices are indeed 'sub-par', in that they're 'below average' and the reason many people choose to shop here as opposed to anywhere else is that it supports GBAtemp.

So I signed up for the ShopTemp newsletter before pre-orders began, thinking I would be informed when they start taking orders. Now I missed the cheaper price and supposedly the price has gone up a couple of times? Thanks for nothing I guess?

The message was sent, and received by most. Apparently a small portion didn't receive it however. The ShopTemp team had no way of knowing who or why. And in same cases the message may have ended up in your spam box.

I'm going to sit here and masturbate over ShopTemp like everyone else but the prices are on the low-end and the shipping is no different than any other place shipping from Hong Kong. I'm not entirely sure what you expect.
