I spent most of the whole week doing reviews for the biggest 3 competitors in the flash cart market right now.  So basically these 3 reviews are based on the same criteria and everything, so you can check how I think these 3 stack up against each other.

Anyways, hope you enjoy reading them, please give feedback because I plan on doing other reviews in the near future.  Also give feedback on the site itself because I plan on reworking it completely over spring break.

Thanks again.

Nice reviews. Would you be able to do one on the DS-Linker? There's just not enough of those, and it's an underrated card.

And thanks for the link to the skin you had in your review of the R4. I found about a hundred more on that site. I could not believe how many have been made for that card.

And yeah, I really like how the site is laid out. It's got a nice, clean, look to it. I really wouldn't change too much of it.

EDIT:

Just noticed reading your SC DSONE review, above the words:

The Supercard DS ONE doesn't slide in and out as nice and smooth as I'd like...You have a picture of the EZ FlashV. I didn't know if you meant to do that or not. I just wanted to point it out in case you didn't mean to do it.

And wow, the DSOne sounds like a pretty bad card. I can't believe the Castlevania's lagged on you even with a Japanese Kingston.

O crap I'll swap that right away.  Thnx.

I don't have a DS Linker, nor am I getting review carts from them, so I can't really do a review on it.

man i really feel like getting the EZ Flash 5 bundle now.. haha

GREAT REVIEWS! haha

PharaohsVizier - can you fix the link for EZ5? i tried clicking on it on your flashcart page, but it seems like you put the link for the ACEcard with it....

[PharaohsVizier]

Fixed.  Thanks for finding these little things.

Here is my own look at DS-LINK, NINJAPASS and R4DS.

I'm going to be honest, the reviews are nice... But you tend to ramble in them... Sometimes stating the same fact over and over, or going on and on about a feature without any real extra information. I think if you were a little bit more curt and concise the articles would probably read better. Other than that, it's a great site. Keep up the good work.

[PharaohsVizier]

Thanks for the feedback, I guess I'll work on that a bit.

hm.. just to ask -

For the EZ5 all the other Slot 1's

do they save the gave once you restart the DS?

(i know the R4 saves it directly, from a GBAtemp review that the Supercard DS ONE saves it after you reboot it. What about the EZ5?)

[h8uthemost]

Yeah, I'm definitely going to get me an EZFlash Bundle in about a week. I'm a little worried about the chip sticking out. But, you didn't seem to have as much trouble with it, as you did with the SC DSOne, so I think I'll be alright.

[PharaohsVizier]

Ummm I think the EZ5 saves the game the next time you load it.  Don't hold me on that though.

[sneef]

yes it does. and an interesting thing is that the save is "persistent" in memory until a different save is written over it.  It is not deleted after being backed up to microSD.  It functions just like normal commercial DS cartridge EEPROM.  it can be read and written with third party apps designed for commercial carts.

[liquidnitrogen]

hm. one last question: (or ... whatever)

are Supercard saves interchangeable with EZ5 saves? and if not, where can i find a save converter?

oh yeah... for Moonshell. i read it is currently using 1.5....

so for me to use 1.71, i'd boot moonshell from the moonshell menu? haha

[liquidnitrogen]

hm... is it just me or...

ON flashcarts link

now the EZ Flash 5 link works, but you destroyed the AceKard's link... ah well

[PharaohsVizier]

Awww crap!  lol.  I'll leave it there for now.  Just wait till spring break, then major updates to the video section will come, and fixes for those links.

EDIT: I fixed it.  That was a really weird problem with dreamweaver.
