The R4 will not work on the new NDSi. Also the European and American models seem to have blocked access to NDSi-specific flash carts (those that did work on JP models of the DSi no longer work).
 
Oh, Damn. Will there be a different way to get games on your DS, Because theres a memory card slot, Will there be a way soon you recon? :w00t:
Please don't dissapoint me ;) well, just tel me the truth XD

As it stands right now the only way to use homebrew or backups is to use a flashcart - but those are blocked right now. I'll do a bit more research but you can run backups from the SD card

EDIT: I think AK2i actually works on the US version
 
Oh. I will probelly be getting the Uk version as im going to part ex with my old ds, so i will buy it in Game, or Gamestation.
 
The Acekard AK2i might work with the EU DSi, I've heard mixed responses but there's a discussion here that was going on, seems to work
 
The AK2i doesn't work on the Europe DSi, but I can confirm it works on the US version etc. The ones you might get at little small shops down the streets, might actually be the US version, since they urge the need to buy them from across seas - no idea why.

Also, you can most likely use that SD card slot eventually, but as far as games go, it might not ever happen since the WIi isn't even capable of that unless it reads a disc with the game on it, not off the SD card's memory.
 
Apparently the AK2i works on the Australian DSi (source), so I wouldn't be surprised if it works for the rest of Europe eventually.

To be honest, with the DSi now supporting "channels", expect a Homebrew Channel akin to the Wii to come out for the homebrew channel eventually. Both pirates and legit homebrew users don't really want to spend money on a card to play free software (as it defeats the purpose), and with upgradeable firmware available on the DSi, expect Nintendo to start fighting back on flash cards. With this in mind, it's a lot easier to update a piece of homebrew to counter a block then it is to bring out a new piece of hardware.
 
Umm, Oh Moose didn't you know, I got it today. I Part exed it its Great. And thanks everyone for telling me about the game thingy XD
 
On my own tested euro DSi that I had - it didn't work. Either one user said that and others just thought of it as a way to pass on false knowledge, it still won't fix it.
 
no, search on youtube. Anyways, I ordered mine, I'll make a vid of it it when it arrives

There may eventually be a dedicated homebrew flash player, but don't expect it in the Opera browser at any time, the DS simply isn't powerful enough.
