Acekard 2
AkibaMap has more photos and coverage of the DSi compatible device that allows you to play homebrew games made by your friends.
If you are in Akihabara, you may be able to get one from these street vendors for 7,800 yen - pick one up before the police pick them up.

I saw these last week, was hesitant to buy though because I hadn't heard anything about them till now. Though, I would have needed to pick up a dsi too and that wasn't in my budget so it works :)
???Confused???

Forgot where I got this from, but apparently the R4 doesn't work with the DSi, but there's a new R4 [R4-III *I think*] That's supposedly made for the DSi...

Interesting they're selling it right out in the open like that when they're considered pirate devices and there has been a crackdown going on.

Looks like an interesting device, but will probably be gone within the next month unless they move like ninjas when selling them.
oh i don,t know it is legal or illegal ?

That was fairly quick. I still think that most people would prefer a DS Lite over a DSi since the DS Lite still supports GBA games. Not that I've played a GBA game in my DS recently, but knowing that there's the backwards compatibility is what's important.
