Taking into account, all the features, ease of use of the newer cards, including SDHC capability what choice of card would you make.

You have the

DSONE (One of the Top Spec Cards) but a little more complicate to use. It has Real Time Save, and a nice customisable front end. It Needs to have the save file size set or kept up to date with a file. Some games are a little slower/glitchy than others (Metroid Prime Pinball / Animal Crossin)

R4 Good Alrounder card, but now getting on in age. With lack of features, and lack of SDHC capability. (For some reason it is still one of the best sellers) Support seems to be slow, and the price has just rocketed)

DSTT/TTDS One of the "NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK" Nice fresh interface, plays all of the games flawlessly, cheats easy to use. and support is quite quick.  It is not without it's little problems (.sav/SAV) files namely.

AceKard2 Another Newbie, Great card, great interface (With realtime clock and callendar), and plays most game flawlessly, Has auto ROM trimming, nice cheat function, copy/paste/delete and will always go back to the directory of the last ROM you ran, so nice and tidy.

CycloDS Have not tried one of these yet, Still trying to get one, but it seems to be the Rolls Royce of Cards, Easy to use, full of features, Real Time Save. Slow Motion.

M3 Once again not tried one of these, so any comments appriciated.

Other Any other SLOT 1 Card, you may wish to pick. (PLEASE Reply with the one you would choose and why) Thanks.

Given that the SCDS can also use the DSTT menu or the the alternate DSTT loader YSMenu, I'd probably go for the SCDS.  The CycloDS Evo comes in at a close second.

Did click your vote dantheman?  I voted for DSONE SDHC becuase of all the exclusive features.

I wish the r4 was available, have 2 friends who want one for their kids. Plain and simple for those who do not want to mess around. Now i need to find another option.

I STILL like the scds1, never have issues at all!

i voted DSTT because its very simple & even better with YSmenu
i loved my V1 scdsone until i got a m3 simply & realized the scdsone was a piece of shite but now that i have the triple loader on my V3 scdsone im using it again

my son uses the DSTT & i use the scdsone both with YSmenu as the main loader

If you can track down M3 SIMPLY cards they are the same as the R4 and can be crossflashed to R4 firmware/kernel :)

I voted for Scds1, because it is the best cart, but I don't have any reasons to buy a new one (already have a v2)
But I'm going to get a CycloDS soon for comparison.

I went with DSOne 'cos I've had Supercard stuff for years now and it works well and I am used to it. Love how it's developing over time getting easier and easier and more compatible. Just gone from Supercard SD to DSOne and it's all so much easier to do :).
