    NDS SanDisk crams 12GB onto a microSDHC card



    Sure, it felt good being the only cat on the block rockin' 8GB of microSDHC storage in your DSFlashcart, but time doesn't stand still, player -- SanDisk's just upped the status quo to 12GB. Yep, there it is, impossibly small and ready to be filled with data -- too bad we don't have any pricing info yet.

    Agreed. First words I thought were "Holy crap!".

    Not only is it insane to have that much data that small... But imagine using that card in an M3 Real, or something! I wouldn't mind using huge .dsm, anymore... Or even keep every dpg I download... Ah, now I want one! lol (I have a 1gb microSD + M3DS Simply, right now)

    Imagine a normal size hard drive used that conveniently.. Actually, my hard drive is only 8 gigs bigger than that!

    I don't know, but probably where they make it...which is most likely Japan, Taiwan, or China :P


    I wouldn't mind 12GB, but that thing probably costs $200.

    That is a holy crap moment, but just wait and they'll come out with a larger one. Wait for a card with 25 gigabytes or more and then get one =D

    Dont work on R4.
    microSD/TransFlash Compatibility
    The SD (including TransFlash and microSD) ranges up to 2Gb. Anything over that is an SDHC card, which is a different format incompatible at this time. All 4Gb and future 8Gb cards will fail.

    Yeah, most of the DS carts won't work with anything over 2Gb, but I think there's a handful that now use the higher capacity ones.. not sure.

    Either way, I'm in the "Holy Crap" camp.
