Hi, all. I come to you in a time of need. My darkest hour if you will. I was in the middle of a Pokémon Black run with an R4 card I just bought off Amazon (loving it btw very cool tech) and my ds was about to die. I used another ds and when I opened the menu all of the game titles were blank and all of the other menus are blank. This would not be a problem except I may have had a few cheats on and would like to turn them off at some point. Also I would like to enable others at some point.

Anywho, I looked around for about an hour and this seems to be an issue. I tried reformatting the drive. Nada. Tried messing with the config folder. Won't even let me edit it. I tried redownloading the R4 software that a text file said to do. Nope.

All the threads seem kinda dated so was just tryna see if there is anyway I can get some suggestions or am I screwed. I have my save folder from my Pokémon Black play through saved on my laptop just in case and I have another microsd card that I thought I needed originally to make the R4 work but it came with one so whatever. Sorry in advance.

Kiss kiss 😘😘😘

Did you get one of those multi-carts from AliExpress or something? If so, then I highly recommend replacing the SD card with a genuine SanDisk or some other branded SD card, as long as it comes from a trusted retailer.

These Chinese microSD cards never last long; often have a fake capacity that what it was advertised as, and overtime it can stop working.

Update, I got my other sd card and just moved over my files for pokemon black along with putting new firmware on it. It works fine. Go watch DNA Mobile Gaming, he seems to be pretty knowledgeable in the topic. What a funny word took me a minute to spell.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas

    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
