I've searched this thread and I'm suprised that nobody has mentioned the G6 Lite. I recently purchased one to play DS and GBA roms and it's awesome. It's a slightly greater drain on battery life than playing games normally, but other than that, it's been awesome. The only other drawback compared to other cards like the Supercard is that it only holds 512MB. Still, I can't think of a time when I'd want to play more than 12 DS games anyways as I'm more of a casual gamer anyways. Here's a review of the G6 from GBAtemp which is an excellent resource for all things GBA and DS.

I got mine on sale for 100 bucks including shipping. A small price to pay for every DS and GBA game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The memory is not upgradable. You're stuck at 512MB. But copying roms and saves couldn't be more simple as all you do is plug into USB with the connector. Another cool advantage to the G6 is that its menu utilizes the touch screen. G6 also has some of the best GBA support. I've read multiple reviews where people have recommended it over the Supercard's GBA support. The G6 Lite is also good bang for your buck as a package deal from realhotstuff.com gives you everything you need for $109.99. With the M3 you have to purchase the M3 itself, a passcard, microSD memory, and a USB SD card reader if you don't already have one. The package deals including the memory and the card reader are upwards of $140 depending on the brand of SD memory you get.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Oh please. C'mon dude, this is 2006. I should have a flash card that plays DS, GBA, SNES, N64, and every other video game ever made. I also want it to be a cell phone, scanner, fax, copier, george foreman grill, and I want unlimited texting.

What's wrong with making a flash card that also supports GBA as well as other emulation?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ah, I get where your coming from as far as slot one goes. Still if I can get a slot 2 that works fine and supports GBA, I'd rather get that, than buying a seperate card just for GBA.

I was speaking idiomatically.
