Full-on Supercard Review – Pick the Best One for You!
Trying to decide between SuperCards? Simon van de Berg has written an in-depth review on all three of them – The MiniSD version, the CompactFlash version, and the original SD version. Each of these models have various pros and cons. In each model, you must buy external memory for the unit.
The review compares the sizes of the carts, the compatibility with homebrew for each cart, and the ability to play backups. If you want a Supercard, but don’t know which one is best for you, this is the thing to read. It’s full of great pictures and plenty of explanation, as well as an honest opinion for each card. His words:
“My verdict of the GBA functionality: 7.8/10, This is based on consideration of the backup capabilities and in comparison to the GBAMP functionality. The SuperCard is clearly not designed first and foremost as a movie player. Loading time can be quite annoying but it is not very long. The Supercard lost most of it’s points in the real-time save problem.”
As for the DS:
“Overall verdict NDS: 8.5/10, it works well with homebrew (CF version the most, if your aim is homebrew I suggest you buy the CF Supercard), and it works very well with backups.”
