There used to be several but now there's only one. Anyone noticed?

The last listing I ordered from was deleted and they sent me an r4isdhc.com.cn... opened a dispute.

The last listing I tried inquiring from went out of stock. Still no answer about whether these are still in production though.

BTW, what's the history of these 1:1 clone carts on AliExpress? Like, when did the current DSOnes and original R4s appear, what was the period of the Acekard 2is, and what others?

[Edit]

Similar threads answers -- Acekard 2i: Nov 2021 - ?; original R4: Nov 2021 - present; DSOne: Apr 2021 - present.

Similar thing on some sites, but Ebay seems fine.

Reason why these listings get deleted is likely Nintendo taking down any listings of flashcarts and modchips for their systems, since they don't like that. I bought a HWFLY from AliExpress and soon after, it was removed.

These carts appeared sometime on Ali in 2021. The Acekard 2i clones only were around for a short period, likely these were old stock they had to get rid of.

Perhaps so; they seem to be reappearing. Or maybe from the pile of disputes from their conduct and dead carts x.x

Considering the prices of these three 1:1 carts though, it feels as though they might indeed be in production. Unlike the DSTT ones from the panda store which are pricier for what they are. Time will tell.

Actually, I just found a listing for apparently the Acekard 2i... does seem legit. I'll see when it arrives.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
