    It won’t work beacause you,ve got version 1.4u on your dsi. You have to have 1.3u or lower to make it work!

    that’s a fake one. the real ones have a round colorful sticker on the back. when you peel it’ll show you the serial number of the r4 you own. use the serial on the manufacturers website to confirm that it’s real.
