Unbelievable!!! The FAKE SuperCard change another name CYCLODS. Please check the detail list below.

    All CYCLODS Fake SuperCard have common features:
The Fake will corrupt your SAVE DATA.
The Fake is very hard to insert and plug out.
CYCLODS microSD/MiniSD/SD version can only use our SuperCard SD version firmware and software, it can not use SuperCard Lite version firmware and software.
Play a lot of DS games will white screen. Especially the 0094 -- Akumajou Dracula - Aoitsuki no Juujika (v01) (JP).
CYCLODS microSD version can NOT totally insert into SLOT 2 of NDSL.

they apparently have rebadged the fake supercards that were already doing the rounds now as CYCLODS still a ripped of supercard but now trying to go it alone as their own product from what im reading  :)

The original CycloDS flash carts for the slot 2, as well as their nopass card were Supercard clones.  In fact, their firmware were interchangeable.  These carts include the CycloDS MiniSD (Supercard MiniSD), the CycloDS MicroSD (Supercard Lite) and the CycloDS Key (SuperKey).  However, the CycloDS Evolution seems to be entirely their own product, maybe a slightly modified DSLink, but still their own product.

I would think it is more than just slightly modified if it is indeed based on the DSLink. DSLink is one of the first slot 1 cards with the associated hassles but Evo is one of the most powerful, albeit a bit expensive card around..

SuperCard Team are only doing this because the CycloDS Evolution is way better than SCDS1...

The cyclo-evo does not have a real time AR/Dipstar cheat and book/guide engine with no slow down, in this derpartment the much older scds-one is quite superiorand unique with these kickass features.

also the slow-mo feature on the evo is quite flakey, where it varies in it's performance/accuracy from game to game... another department the scds-one is clearly superior.

that said, evo obviously has 'download n play' and 'sdhc' advantages... could the scds-one possibly be pushed to include these features ????  I have heard something is in the pipeline ;)

For real. Jealously is the only reason I can think of them for posting this now. And I think it's very petty on the Supercard Team's part. They could've posted this quite a while ago when the Cyclo minisd and Cyclo microsd came out.

Pretty lame.

I can't help but think that maybe the reason SC are doing this, is that they are obviously ripping SC off, not only the hardware, but the software is all but a 100% rip.

 That may be, but...they could have posted it last year when it came out.

Seriously, I think we all know why they waited until now to post it.
