R4i on DSi XL
If you’re wondering if you can use an R4 on DSi XL, I did a little test to check with my R4i (version 1.4 from www.m3izero.co.uk). See the results in the video.

I WANT BUY A CARD URGENT
hello. I’m french so i don’t understand all the sentences but in french i can say “yep ! votre blog est tres cool”
Wow. I already have a “DSi” so I probably won’t be getting the “DSi XL” but I hope my sisters do because it looks AWESOME! The way BIGGER screens and the bigger speekers would be perfect for elderly folk and people with “xl hands” haha. I cant wait until they bring this out! Anyway… I HIGHLY reccommend this to elderly people who still like to game and people with larger hands that find it too uncomfortable with the original “DSi”. Does Anyone know if the R4i will work on the “DSi XL”? Because i have a R4i and might be getting this to have as a second ds and use my original DSi as a backup in case anything go’s wrong. By the way, if you are thinking of getting a r4i after reading this it’s a good choice as you can download free games onto it, free movies, free e-books, free music and free music videos! but be aware that some websites can but viruses in the download. Only download things for it on http://www.r4i-sdhc.com , http://www.games-engine.com and http://www.ndsr.net The R4i is brilliant but be aware that you cannot update your dsi until they bring out a new update for the r4i that will work with that DSi version. I got a new DSi yesterday. “not my first”. What i mean is that my DSi’s L button wouldn’t work for over half a year so I brought it back to the shop with my guarentee to get it swapped for a new one!
! I was really happy as my old DSi had some scratches, over 100 crappy pictures that i didn’t have the patience to delete and… oh nevermind… Anyway what am i doing, writing my lifetime story? or even worse… a blog?… I got to go now.
. If you have any faq’s you will probably find the answers on the internet somewhere… If you can’t find the answers then e-mail me the question/s and I will try and get back to you with the answers if I can within maybe a day or two. Writers Disclaimation??? I AM NOT THE OWNER NOR DO I HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE COMPANY Nintendo. I wrote that because it’s fun to write at the bottom of comments :]! My e-mail for faq’s and not for spamming! is Owen.casey.comi@gmail.com . Have fun and I hope you become a gamer on Nintendo if you aren’t already! Bye!
Wow Mr. Nintendo Gamer, that’s probably the best blog comment I’ve ever seen. You should start your own blog. I’d like to know more about the benefits of getting your DSi replaced.

@lynsey
Hi lynsey
We had an error on ours and just had to go into the date settings and set the date back to the start of the year – it worked perfectly then. A few months later, same error, same fix and works fine again.
Good luck!
Hi had the same problem “system error message”?? Try putting the ds’s calendar back a few years. Worked for us, good luck!
you can try downloading ‘r4i wood’from certain sites or if you had it working ,have you tried putting the calender back by 5 months.had errors on my sons dsi and put the calender back by a few months and worked a treat

I WANT BUY A CARD URGENTWow Mr. Nintendo Gamer, that

yeah, the prob with r4i’s for the dsixl is that the dsixl’s automatically update eachother causing the r4i’s not to work. even if u have no internet connection, if a dsixl gets close enough in range of another dsixl which has the update it will download it from that dsixl. so pretty much, the dsixl is r4i proof.
i have r4i cards that work on any ds if you would like to know more add me on facebook my name is gemma green
ME WANT CARD NOW!!!™©®
TAKE THE CHIP OUT OF THE CARD AND BLOW THEN PUT IT BACK IN THE CARD
To all those who are wondering about the DS r4 card I’m a p.c technician and i will say the r4i the r4 will NOT work on the dsi XL if you ever get a message saying an error has occurred blease restart and refer to your DS manual that means the new firmware on the DS has been updated and they fixed flash cards I’m going to buy the new r4i sdhc v 1.41 update tht is for the DS will let you know if it works hope this helps
We had a DSI XL which worked perfectly with our R4i card. Then the DSI XL broke and we replaced it with a brand new one, but now this one won’t work. I think maybe the system on this one is more updated than the last. Has anyone fixed this problem? The R4 card still works perfectly on our old DS Lite.
Please let us know if you’ve managed to get around the problem! Thanks!
I have a DSXL and have used a R4i revolution card was working perfectly till recently when i noticed a problem with LOADING ” please check date and time on the system” and I have checked and edited the date and time but still didn’t improve so I Have made a mistake in updating the DSXL system now it made things worst the R4i would not load kept getting Error switch off and check manual ;
What have I done and What can I do
we have a fire link card and that doesnt work on dsi xl – does anyone know how to fix it or what to replace it with – thanks
@Eve Hewlett
You can buy an R4i for the DSi XL. I have one. And… you shouldn’t do the system update! It won’t read the um, you know, the card.
Have bought an r4i card for my sons dsi. Every thing was fine for a week but now when you turn it on a red (sim card type) icon saying “menu?” comes up on the top screen. Anyone any ideas??
