R4i is a much talked about product, much is written about this product, and here is the short review of the product to let people know about its various features and applications. Basically, R4i was the first DSi card which was released for the R4 brand. The card was produced by the R4 SDHC upgrade team. It was created for Nintendo DSi. The card was also compatible with Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite but when R4i was created it used to work only with Japanese DSi but after the updating of its firmware, it became compatible with other versions of console also.

The structural design of R4i was flawed when it was first produced by the R4i SDHC team because of which the first generation R4i SDHC card is not compatible with Nintendo DSi and it does not work with it under1.4 firmware but one does not need to worry as NDS Gear does not sell first generation R4i. If you buy any R4i SDHC card from NDS gear it is going to work on Nintendo 1.4 firmware but you have to wait for sometime if you have 1.41 version.

Most of the people belief that R4i SDHC is produced by the same team, which produced R4 SDHC card but this is not so, the team that produced the new R4i SHDC is entirely different. If you have seen DS/DS Lite card in the official website then it is actually R4 SHDC card which is not original. DID group produce the original R4i SHDC card. One can contact DID group via their official website or email his queries.

There are many functions of R4i like it can recognize and display SD type, It can format and also have power saving features like sleep mode function, simple and easily operated interface, multi language setting and it endorse up to 32 GB of storage capacity with SHDC cards. The team of R4i is committed towards maintaining website and keeping kernel updates.

SHDC cards are compatible with all NDS games. It also supports soft-reset settings on each game and also support cheat codes so that there would not be any room for conflicts. Cheat code of R4i is easy to use and also ensures problem free gaming experience even for the beginners. With the latest Moonshell 2.0 in-built card, R4i is able to deliver better multimedia experience. It now gives better picture quality and high decoding performance. Now, with the improved form of the card least error in size and shape occur. IT is the customers' delight to know that R4i SHDC cards can accept Micro SHDC cards up to 32 GB and it is also compatible with DS, DS Lite and also with DSi consoles which are not 1.4 firmware update.
