I want to buy a used japanese DSi XL and have three questions:

1. Can I use my Wood R4 Flascard with it?
2. Is there a setting that lets me skip the menu and directly starts the cartridge on boot? There was a setting like this on DS Lite.
3. Is it even worth it when I have a 3DS XL?

1 exactly wich R4 is this? if is the old one probably not
2 I don't know, I think not too
3 if you want to play DS games and it's for a good price, why not? XD I miss my dslite sometimes...
1. "R4i RTS 3DS" from r4ids.cn
2. :(
3. I can play all my DS games on my 3DS XL, but the resolution makes it blurry. Guess I will buy it.

1: Depending on the firmware installed. A newer R4i should have no trouble.
2: No, bummer.
3: Yes its worth it. I game on a Japanese White DSi XL and love it. The games are a bit more pixelated vs a normal DSi but the screen is filled completely and looks good.

well the XL have a " expand" too but I never saw one in action to compare with the 3DS way :x
It is real fullscreen (because it has the same number of pixels, just they're larger), light years ahead than the default zoom mode of any 2/3DS - and it has select+volume hotkey to adjust brightess at any time!

I got my DSi, but there's a problem. All my games on my flashcard are in English now! I want to play them in German, but you can't choose the language. The game detects the language of your DS and automatically chooses the language for the game.

What do?
