Ohh, why do you wan't us to check?

Why don't you just look at the different retailers, by searching or by checking the retailer feedback.

but to Lord Graga if you could pull your head out of your ass for a minute you may realise that this question wasnt aimed at you it was towards anyone that may have bought a flash card and might know as lik sang are gettiing there balls sued off bye nintendos lawyers or something that means they cant sell the flash cards i think i was wondering who is a trusted retailer for them and who sell them for a good price as well but if all you can do is try and rip people i would sujjest would you take a deep breath and shuv it back up there

Read the FAQ in the beginners section (under Testing your code). It has something to say, but it ain't exactly about where they are cheapest.

The fact is nintendo are stopping gba piracy by punishing the retailers who sell the hardware rather then the pirates themselves. Lik-sang was the latest victim (around early 2002 they stopped selling flash carts). Why do you live (UK US etc)

your right as well its not as if if when you search for gba thing it doesnt come up with hundred roms options. but would half of the retailer not probaly lik sang not dell to a person that they though would use it to pirate marterial and i think that s wat got the stick so far up nintendo ass as they dont want to kill there developers but the pirates are killing them.
but its nintendos fault they didnt off any kind of testing tool like the flash card if they did they could have made it better and something like a registration system that meant that only developers could obtain them and it would really slow down any piraters and the people who use roms wold have the excitement of playing the games on there pcs and thats shit

Nintendo does have a registration system; the problem is just that the system is designed for developers of commercial game software and not for hobbyists.

I'm a UK resident so I used www.consoleplus.co.uk. It offers next day delivery and I got my 128 mb card with USB linker for ?90.
