Looking at R4i/Gateway 3ds flash cards for the 3DS

[bushongsean]

So I have been thinking about picking up an R4i card or gateway 3ds for my son's Nintendo 3ds xl console, so that he can play downloaded 3ds games such as pokemon x and y, watch movies and listen to music.

Has anyone here purchased one yet? www.r4flashcart.com/8-wood-r4i-gold-3ds-flashcart-for-3ds-xl-3ds-dsi-and-ds-lite.html my friend recommend me to buy this r4i card, it seems reputable enough, though I dont know if my son can play pokemon x and y with this cart?

R4i gold 3ds just a normal nds card,it doesnt support 3ds roms, so if you want play pokemon x /y and your N3DSXL firmware stayed on v4.1-4.5,then you can buy gateway 3ds,this is the best 3ds game card with powerful features. I have got one from a usa based official distributor www.modchipfactory.com/gateway-3ds-the-first-3ds-flashcart-for-3ds-games-p-19.html , and till now,it ran perfectly without any problems.
