Sit down, grab some popcorn and enjoy boys and girls because you are witnessing the end of R4. Who in their right mind would buy an R4 now knowing that it could potentially be a clone and that the R4 developers will brick your system sometime in the future? I know I sure as hell won't. They can forget about word-of-mouth advertising which pretty much made them what they are today.

Why anyone would buy a card other than a CycloDS is beyond me.

Agreed... not sure why R4 is such a craze, CycloDS is far superior...

The absolute best developer support around.

The Cyclo devs are constantly adding new features through frequent firmware updates.

I've been told that it's easier to use, but I don't have first hand experience with others.

That's because you're close minded.

- CycloDS is slightly more expensive, which can be a turn off to some people. However, since it's newer and better, it makes sense.
- Before CycloDS came out, R4 was more or less the most popoular one, and many people bought that.

So do we trust an article that doesn't use correct grammar and spelling? It all sounds like a bit of a joke to me.
