    　 2007-10-11 12:18:00 SZHQ Despatch from Sorting Center


    Am very curious to see how long this will take to arrive as I wouldn't normally pay extra for postage (US$16.40) unless I was guarenteed swift delivery. From the comments on this thread EMS service is a bit patchy.

    Also am wondering which service is more likely to get the attention of customs ( EMS I guess.) Any postal workers out there?

    Hi Cathy,

    Well worth getting them for your Daughter, all software comes with it and you basically drag and drop it onto the memory card (I recommend you get 2 gig for a quite life :) ) A quick google will help you find whatever your daughter desires.

    Got sick of waiting on Dealextreme (3 weeks and still not posted) so I cancelled.
    Try http://www.supercardnds.com and order in US dollars (65 usd). Works out at about 46 euro including a 2GB Kingston Japan card and EMS postage included if you select that option instead of air mail. Took 6 days from ordering to the letter box.

    I know it's probably your first website and all, but you shouldn't really put a website up with so many links that don't work. Approx 50% of your links work. Thought I was gonna find out what all the fuss is about the R4 but was very disappointed when I clicked on the 'What can the R4 do?'. Finish the website and it'll be a great little source of info

    My website was acting very bad! I fixed the links that should worked and removed any links to no where!
    find out what it can do now!

    I'd love to properly finish this but i'm swamped with college work!

    lads, i havent read the full thread, but i will now

    just one question

    Does this only play like old non DS (snes, nes) games, or can you play actual DS games on it, like zelda, brain training etc?

    You can play everything on it.

    DS games like you mentioned. Then there are emulators for NES/SNES/GBA etc
