DS Flash Equipment > BEWARE: fake R4

#122006 - felix123 - Fri Mar 16, 2007 11:20 am

Recently, a batch of fake R4 was discovered. Some persons stuck a R4 sticker to some kind of a card, put it in a box very similar to the R4 box, and tried to sell it as such.

Important distinguishing features:
The fake card uses internal memory. R4 uses MicroSD cards. If it doesn't have a MircoSD card slot, it's fake.
If the box has a "2GB" sticker, it's fake.

Edit: It was claimed that it is a Firelink card, but the Firelink card company said it is not their product.

I would prefer Firelink which is same as DS-Linker. I have both R4 and Firelink.
