Card Reader for Nintendo

[telboy1938]

There must be someone out there who has the answer for me. I have everything I need in order to write nintendo games & puzzles etc from my PC to the R4 Micro chip but I have not been able to find a Card Reader in order to copy all the genuine Nintendo game cards to my PC. I have dozens of these games and would like to put them on to the R4 Micro chip once I have them on my PC.
What card reader do I require please?
Thanks....Tel

This is the sort of thing you need - a Micro SD card reader:

You should have got one with the R4 Card you have....

Thanks but it is the genuine nintendo game-card I wish to read which is full size & not micro. My aim is to transfer all genuine individual card games etc to my PC and then write them to the R4 Micro chip.

Are you talking about ripping normal buy-from-the-shop DS games and put them onto a Micro SD card for your R4??

You will have to buy a reader for DS cartridges.

However, you're better off (i.e., far, far faster and easier, not to mention cheaper) just downloading the game files from a the internet (pirate bay probably has them), if you want to do this.

Both amount to the same thing, and both are as illegal as each other.

Yes Mr Bounty, that is what I meant. I need a reader in order to copy the "shop bought " games to PC and then transfer to DS4 micro chip.

Thanks for your advice fo3nix but I have no idea how to get the Nintendo games on-line. If you have the time maybe you could advise me....Thanks.....Tel

Search for the pirate bay on google. On that site (it's just a search engine), you will be able to search for the game that you want to download.

Download the game from that site (it will give you a .torrent file), and then from there you need to use a program like uTorrent (again, google for it) to download the actual game.

Before copying to your R4 card, you may need to run a program (that will have come with the card I hope), to slightly modify it so that it will run on the R4 card. But I've never used an R4 card so don't know exactly the details here.

Many thanks, you have been a great help....Tel

One other thing though fo3nix.....I couldn't find a N5 DS Cartridge Reader anywhere. Could find reports about them but no place to purchase...Maybe you will know?
