I bought a R4 from a site that i found on here in the ds section for cheap R4's.
It came and the packaging looks real but it does not looks real when i campared it to the one i purchased last year.
I have googled and youtubed to try and find if it is but just get stuck with people asking the same questions.
The one i think is fake does not have a a sring system for the micro sd card, you just push it in and it also does not have a curve at the top it is flush.
when i googled looking for original r4 images that image seem to come up. Have the R4 team changed the design slightly. When i youtubed it i found that you get fakes but there are easy to tell they are fake buy taking of the sticker and you can see a chip behind it. mines does not have a chip, its just plastic. i have also tried 1.18 firmware and it works but did not use it long enough just incase i bricked it (been reading about this so didnt want it to happen).
If it is fake im not bothered but i dont want to put on 1.18 firmware and then it bricks. The reason i want that firmware is because i have noticed some games i have downloaded do not work with the 1.15 firmware i have on my original card from last year.
Thanks for any replies.
