the perfect card for every NDS

Pros: You can play games without carrying all the other game cards with you.
The price is quiet good for what this thing can do, i mean, a normal ds game is about 30-40 dollars.
You can even put SDHC memory cards in it, so you can save hundrets of games to one Card.


Cons: Rumble pack is useless.
The loading time is long
Menu is slow
No CD, you have to download the Software on your own.
You see these arre very little cons...


Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: just buy it. it will save you a lot of dollars
everyone needs one of these


Great

Pros: What can i say. the M3 real and R4 are the top of the line. I also have an R4 but it is not as good because of the features M3 has and the support is great too. You can your DS as a PDA (M3 Real Only) or Ebook reader as well (just like the R4)


Cons: it takes a bit of knowing how to install the files needed in order to actually use all the different features.
The cartridge is weird it sometimes gets stuck in my NDS lite but all it'll require is just a little stiffer push.


Other Thoughts: Great item i'd rather have the real than the R4DS. The vibration pack thing... i'm still clueless on how to use it but its not a big deal.


Bottomline: Great item, well worth the price your paying at DX.


Perfect solution

Pros: Connect, switch on... and play.
I had one of the first media player for NDS... forget about installing programs on your computer, forget about worrying if your game is compatible...
Simply perfect.


Cons: This pack includes a rumble pack. For me and my cousins was not needed, and even when I thought that would be great, maybe it is more comfortable not to have this.
I would have prefered to have the memory expansion to use the internet wifi connection.


Other Thoughts: Perfect for my little cousins, as they do not need to carry all games with them.


Bottomline: This is simple, easy to use, and works OK, I would highly reccomend it.


Get this or M3 Simply

Pros: +Plays all NDS Games
+Great build quality
+Easy to update firmware
+Drag and drop EVERYTHING
+Comes with a great MicroSD reader
+Lots of updates


Cons: -A little tough to get the MicroSD card in/out
-Hard to take the card in and out as well
-Doesn't play all homebrew
-Not nearly as simple as other M3 devices such as M3 Simply
-Rumble Pak packs too much punch
-Can be confusing to newbies
-Software on CD is outdated so you'll have to track down the firmware


Other Thoughts: Maybe I'm not doing something right but some homebrew apps/games won't work with M3 Real where-as M3 Simply plays everything.


Bottomline: M3 Real is a great card for starters but you'll still be confused after getting it unless you know what your doing. Its not nearly as simple to use as other M3 devices such as Simply. An example would be how you access games and their options such as cheats. You also have to press Y to boot up games with wireless(don't know about Wifi) when Simply just lets you boot them up.
Finally homebrew is something I like but not everyone buys these for homebrew. Regardless you'll get the best NDS compatibility with any M3 device and this is clearly no exception.
Build quality is great but it feels and looks like a mini M3-Tank. Its hard to put in/out the MicroSD card and its even harder to take the M3 Real out. Its spring loaded because its so hard that you won't notice much.
Bottomline: buy it if you want to play NDS games and some Homebrew(maybe I did something wrong?). It don't take too long to start playing games as its drag and drop but you'll probably want to read the manual to understand every feature. The rumble pak is loud but its cheap so you can't expect much. Theres tons of updates so you'll have plenty of bug fixes/game fixes/new additions.
All in all you should buy this or any other M3 Product such as Simply.
