    I've tried tracking my order. To do this the site requests a receipt/order number - all my confirmation Email has is a 17 digit transaction ID which isn't accepted for tracking purposes. Is this transaction ID same number that others have used to track their order status?

    been playing elite beat agents since, damn crazy japanese games :)
    This game features the same game play as Ouendan, but with a different song list geared towards western audiences. So get Ouendan too - for the genuine crazy Japanese experience. :D

    Ouendan

    Best. Game. Ever.

    I've got EBA as well, but I've been skipping all the story bits as I love the confusing stuff that goes on in Ouendan (rat puncher!) and having the stories in English is a bit of a let down for me.

    I think EBA is a bit easier than Ouendan as I'm already 5 songs into Hard on EBA within a week and I struggled to complete Ouendan for months! Or maybe my skills were improved by hours of hardcore Ouendan action.

    Back on topic, dealextreme.com seems to be down at the moment. Better be back soon as I'm itching to get myself an R4!

    Oh, didn't know I had to select anything extra to track my order. That's grand then - was getting worried because I wasn't able to track it. Now that I know I didn't select that option, I'm not worried.

    Cheers, my liege. :D

    Got mine yesterday, great value!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,510 ✭✭✭sprinkles


    that website is a disgrace. Never loads up. Hopefully should get mine on monday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,853 ✭✭✭Fnz


    Wow... sorry to tease but I've just noticed that amazon.co.uk are selling SanDisk 2gb micro SD cards for £10stg. [Linky]

    Might be of use to some - it's a shame they don't ship to ROI.

    Strange that SanDisk have the same product listed at $79.99 on their own site. [Linky]

    Remember the Wii takes regular SD cards.. not the micro ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,510 ✭✭✭sprinkles


    Comes with an adapter


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    Mine arrived today.

    Nice little units... I rather foolishly didn't go with the combo deal, so I have to wait for Komplett to send me some Micro SD cards.

    Strangely the handwriting on the envelope matches my own exactly... it's nice to know that my hand writing is just as good as a Chinese woman trying with difficultly to write English characters.

    Nope. That's perfectly normal. I've ordered 6 separate packages from them now and they've all taken forever.

    Patience is really needed. I just got one today actually. My green laser. Yay!

    OK Got mine with the 1gig card, left Hong Kong on the 31st of May so 2 weeks to the day nearly, although I'd advise folks to get a 2 gig card as you can't get much on a 1 gig. ordered a 2 gig from 7dayshop for about 25 euros including postage.

    Yeah, that's some solid advice, Snake. ;)

    The more gigs, the merrier. I've got the 1 gig card and will probably wait for the 4 gig cards come down in price before upgrading. :)

    BTW - My R4 cartridge took about 3 weeks to arrive; from the date of ordering. Can't really complain as the shipping was free.

    3 weeks is about average.

    I thought it would be longer so I ordered one and went on holidays soon after. It arrived 4 days after I went. When I got to the post office to pick up my undelivered parcel it had been returned to them the previous day. Lousy timing!

    Mailed them to see how to sort it. They said they could track it on the way back so had no problem sending a replacement but I should either pay postage or buy something else to have it included in the free postage for the next item. I ordered another 1gb card, not paying any heed to the maker. Three days ago my R4DS and originally packaged card arrived, along with a note to say that since the second card I ordered was out of stock they've gone ahead and posted what they had "for my convenience".

    Eh?What are you talking about you can't get much on 1 card?I have like 10 games on mine, including the 2 Phoenix Wrights, the 2 Castlevanias, the 2 Pokemon (Diamond and Pearl), Super Mario DS, Mario and Luigi:Partners in Time, Elite Beat Agents, and AT LEAST 1 or 2 others.Now if thats not enough....

    MP3 and Video files? Also there's probably a thousand games out there to get for the DS. So it depends on what you intend using the R4 cartridge for but IMHO if you're buying it now for the first time it's worth paying a little more for the extra space... unless you can get additional storage for cheaper.

    Just wanted to thank the OP (MisterAnarchy) for this great find and all the advice in this thread! Have mine a few days now so just getting to grips with what it can do (thank you Google!).

    Ordered a 2GB microSD card with it - definately needed - and a good price too.

    Anyone who has a DS really needs to have this - its like a different (and cooler) handheld console with it.

    Thanks again!

    Cheers again to the op, my wife wanted an MP4 player for her birthday but she was also keen on a DS too. So I bought her a DS lite today and just ordered an R4 right now as well as a 2GB micro SD from 7dayshop. She'll be well chuffed:)
