A note on new design SanDisk Cards & Counterfeit Cards
Hi All,
Some of you may or may not know that some time ago last year SanDisk changed their logo.
This new logo has now started to appear on new SanDisk MicroSD cards recently and has led to some users not aware of the logo change to think they are counterfeit.
Just as a reminder, if you see a SanDisk MicroSD with the new logo & design as pictured, its not immediately a fake, but of course still apply the usual knowledge of checking for low quality printing and font mistakes etc. as counterfeiters can still copy it.
For a point of reference, SanDisk now also show the new logo on their cards on their official website:

GBA About knockoff SuperChis
Hi, I am ChisBread, the designer of SuperChis.
Recently, I noticed that some players reported that they purchased fake SuperChis. There are several types:
- SuperCard SD + SuperChis stickers, and claim that they are selling SuperChis.

- Claims to sell SuperChis v2.0. I don’t even know I have designed v2.0, I’m not even sure if the next version will be called SuperChis.
It might be some kind of knockoff version of the SuperChis Prime? but I’m sure the smaller battery isn’t doing the product any favors.


I must clarify:
- There is only one version of SuperChis Prime, 1.0. Those claiming SuperChis v2.0 are all fake.
- Real SuperChis will definitely be marked with "Designed by ChisBread"
- Real SuperChis have a larger battery and there is a space above the SD card slot to avoid accidentally inserting the SD card into the gap.

- So far, I’ve only been in contact with ChisFamily. If there are any quality or after-sales issues with SuperChis from ChisFamily, I will take action. I haven’t been able to reach the other sellers.
Finally, I would like to say that If you are a seller of knockoff SuperChis, after reading this, I hope you will at least respect my signature and stop naming it SuperChis v2.0. This not only misleads consumers, but also disrupts my development plan.

Problem Jagoomba Color – graphical issues on The Little Mermaid 2: Pinball Frenzy and 3D Ultra Pinball: Thrillride (EZ-Flash Omega DE vB)
Hi, I've been playing with my EZ-Flash Omega Definitive Edition (Version B) and wanted to test out some GBC Rumble Pak games using the built-in rumble. I tried The Little Mermaid 2: Pinball Frenzy and 3D Ultra Pinball: Thrillride.
The rumble itself works perfectly in both games — it triggers at the right moments. However, both games have visible graphical glitches right from the title screen (incorrect/missing colors, artifacts). I'm guessing this is the known mid-frame BG palette change (hi-color) limitation in Jagoomba Color, but I haven't seen these two specific titles mentioned in the GitHub issues or the GBAtemp thread.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any chance of a fix, or is it a confirmed hardware limitation?

Turning my DS Lite into a game controller - DSpico
youtube.comThe moment I saw the DSPico I knew I had to get one. It was the last piece of the puzzle to fixing, modding and upgrading my DS Lite into 2026.
This is my video to show off to the masses what the DSPico can do! It gets exposed to your computer as a standard gamepad, but it is missing joysticks and L2/R2 triggers - something most modern games expect. The touch display can trigger actions too, which is pretty neat.
I guess it's useful as an extra controller for your little sibling in a pinch, but I'm not saying this is practical. It's definitely cool though.
For links to everything I used, I made a blog post. https://elvinhome.io/blog/articles-3/turning-my-ds-lite-into-a-game-controller-dspico-37

Question Is the R4i SDHC HappyBox V1.41 something rare?
Hello everyone! I’m new to the world of R4 cards and their clones. I’m interested in becoming a collector of NDS flash cartridges. I have an old R4i SDHC HappyBox V1.41—it seems to be from around 2011. I’m curious: does it have any value?

Question Looking to fix RTC glitch after GBA cart battery replacement.
I replaced the battery in my copy of Pokemon Sapphire hoping that the berries I had planted would finally grow. Turns out this is not the case due to an issue with the RTC being reset when you replace the battery. I cannot restart this copy and I cannot wait years for the clock to catch up, so my only option is to modify the games stored RTC using a flash cart.
What’s the recommended hardware and software for this? Maybe a guide?
I have a GBA, DS Lite, DSI, and 3DS. Also a computer. Any help is appreciated.

Update R4
Hey! This is an update from my other post (https://www.reddit.com/r/flashcarts/s/M53Iqq07vY).
Everything has been working smoothly so far. Still with the problems at Pokémon games and I have no clue how to fix it (DS ones only ; GBA works and loads the saves with no problems).
Any ideas that dont require me to change to a different menu?
I like Pico Launcher more than I thought, lol.

Problem Firmware R4
Hi everyone, I need your help. I can’t find the firmware for these two R4.
A few details:
- I bought the black R4 along with a used DS years ago at the time I must have removed the microSD card, and who knows where it ended up. I just remember it was running Wood
- The white R4 is mine and still works, but the kernel has definitely glitched, and I can’t use it properly (for example, I can’t open the start menu at the bottom, change the settings, or enable cheats). I remember very clearly downloading the Wood/Acecards kernel, but now it’s no longer available for my version on the official website. Is there any way I can get it to boot, or do I need a specific version from the files on my SD card?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

Question R4 Help (Please say if Im in the wrong space)
So found my old R4 from like 2009/2010 and I want to change up the games on it! However everytime I put a new game it keeps saying 'savfile not founded!' and I am unsure how to fix, everywhere I look just keeps saying 'open the game to get to a save point' but I cannot even get the game open. The old games on the R4 still work its just the new.

NDS Roms not showing up on laptop
Hey i I’m running into a weird issue with my SD card and hope someone can help.
I have an SD card with separate folders for my ROMs: GBA, NES, NDS, etc.
When I plug the SD card into my laptop, the GBA and NES folders work perfectly and show all of my games. But when I open the NDS folder, it shows up as completely empty, even though the games should be in there. Loaded the game onto my DSi, everything's still there. No issue with save files, so I assume the game is still on the SD card, just not showing up.
Not a major issue now, but I'm hesitant to add new games in case it ruins it.
Additional context: NDS folder doesn't have ay sub-folders (GBA, NES are split by alphabet). Thinking this might be the case but when I give it some time to load, it's still empty.

Problem [HELP] SuperChis doesn't work
galleryI've bought SuperChis Prime in July 2026 from official ChisFamily store. It worked great for first few months, but I've put DS on shelf for month and when I turned it on, SuperChis showed as "DS Option Pack" and was non-clickable. So I tried to reinsert it and nothing happened. A day after that it worked briefly, but then stopped and now showed as "No GBA Game Pak inserted". Sometimes it got detected, but got stuck at SuperFW logo or Gameboy logo with garbled Nintendo logo text. So I tried to reflash it using SuperFW NDS Flasher tool, but flasher failed to detect it, it shows SRAM integrity check passed, but flashing SuperFW shows "Flashing operation failed!" and flash dump output are empty inside when checked by hex editor. I tried cleaning slot and flashcart contacts but nothing happened, it still doesn't work. What should I do?

Problem The ROM won't open on my R4 2025.
Look, I downloaded the correct kernel for my R4 dual core, but for some reason the ROM simply won't open. I don't know if it's because I didn't put the ROM in .nds format perfectly, or if it's because i do this on my phone, I don't know, I just know that no matter where I download the ROM from, it ends up like this.
(Sorry if my English wasn't perfect :/)

Question Modded 2ds won't read R4
galleryHello everyone,
I got an "r4 upgrade" cart since im kid.
I tried to play it on a my newly acquired 2ds modded with luma v13.4.
It plays wonderfully on my old ds with YS Menu, but once in the 2ds, the cart is not detected (nothing is happening).
I know i can launch nds file with some software with the CFW, but it pumps the battery very quickly, so maybe with the flashcart it won't be so energy consuming ?
Edit : the 2ds can detect orignal DS game
