    Basically, I'm looking for a flash card, I dunno what the best ones are. I have an NDS Lite (not XL) and I really don't trust online buying for things like flash cards. TBH, I don't mind if someone has one spare, I'll happily buy it. It's just I'd rather get it in person so do any shops (that are trusted) sell them around Dublin 1?

    If you don't want to be ripped off, buy it online. I can't see how you don't "trust" online retailers when that's where your bricks and mortar shop is buying them in bulk anyways and charging you over the odds for the privilege ;)

    Plenty of folks here with good experiences and recommendations for where to shop for them.

    Best out there is the Acekard 2i btw

    To eiliminate these type thread, I took all the verified decent sellers & put them in a sticky. I've no idea about bricks & mortat type shops, but as TV said you'll be buying the same product only paying more money.

    Thanks.
    Just looking at gamekool's site.
    $15.10 for an acekard 2i. Good value. It says free shipping. Would that be free shipping to Ireland tho seeing as how its an american site?

    Was looking on gamekool's site and came across this card for the new Nintendo 3DS.

    Since the 3DS isnt even out yet, is this thing legit? :P

    Unless I'm mistaken, it's only utilising the backwards compatibility of the 3DS to play DS titles. These cards can't even run DSi Enhanced games at the moment, let alone 3DS ones.

    None of my AV programs has a problem.

    I've ordered from GK, and there are two others here on the thread that gave it a +1 (as in they've ordered too). I reckon if we got riddled with viruses we might not be so quick to recommend them, or if we did recommend them we'd probably mention that the site's a bit dodgy.

    Your AV program is wrong, get a better one ;)
