Pros: when working very easy to use, my kids are able to trandfer the games by them selves

Cons: i have purchased loads of these with no problems, HOWEVER my last shipment contained the wrong items - the usb cable is mini usb with a MALE connector, and the slot 2 transfer cartridge also has a MALE connector!!. I have tried a cable from a previous batch (female) i still cant get the ds to be recognised by the pc. When i use a different slot 2 cartridge it works ok, so the actual firecard is ok. I have sent numerous emails to DX to report this but i still havn't had a reply.

Other Thoughts: Wont be ordering anymore until this problem is sorted out by DX

Bottomline: Good value product when working.
Supplier needs to check the contents are correct before shipping.
DX need to reply to customer's emails promptly

Pros: * Ease of use - Easy to use and no need of a novel sized book to get you going.
* Build quality - The kit I received had a very good build quality about it, even the USB cable rivaled "store bought" cables costing 2x or 3x the amount if bought serpeately
* Stability - I've had my kit since early January and i've yet to have a single problem with it. Only one game give the kit a hiccup, Contra IV of course (who didn't have a problem with this for any brand kit?)

Cons: In my experience of this kit, I only have one "con";
* Card for slot 2 is a little more on the thick side than "official" cards thus making them a little more stubborn to get out of the NDS.

Other Thoughts: The loader could have a nicer layout but you can't get everything you want huh?

Bottomline: Excellently priced - stable hardware - software (firmware) updated when necessary - good build quality

Pros: simple article in job, baby, resistance fighter, sufficient capacity for about twenty games ds.
when I accepted it, card was very well which, your service more express your the airmail. Having opened the package, they can find cards either in their packing of origins, are fair carte+cordon usb+slot2, in that case having wrapped around bubbles in some paper.

Cons: some small rare skids but a formatting and the card works again correctly, a bit long for the transfer of games

Other Thoughts: reception of the package in one delays of 2 weeks sometimes

Bottomline: good value for money, easy to use, comparable for me in other card Ds, is enough for job and budget to dedicate to it!

Ownership verified by DX not bad at all

Pros: don't have to use other memory cards, just plug in this in it has 1gb memory, can hold about games 15 or so games pending on the size of the games,
It's very cheap
100% of roms work ( at least the ones i have tried)
already has all the firmware and menu installed.
interchangeable menu and firmware of alot of other cards

Cons: no instructions or back up drivers
slow usb1.1 like transfer
do not really like the slot2 transfers . they are a bit slow plus you need a ds on hand. its not a big deal but if you dont have a ds in hand cant do it

Other Thoughts: for the Chinese site might be a little help

Bottomline: cheap, works with almost all roms, no extras .kinda slow transfer rate but its ok ... mind you it only hold around 15 games if u want to carry more then you might just have to buy the 2gbs
