All serious gamers use their Nintendo consoles with R4 cards. These cards enhance the functioning of the Nintendo with its very useful features. The R4 card is a necessity more than just an accessory as it helps the gamer to play games that require high memory and also to store these files. The R4 allows the Nintendo to be used as efficiently as the iPod or iPad with its multiple applications that allow downloads of music files, images and pictures as well as the ability to read a word file by downloading e-book.
The R4 revolution was designed to elevate the Nintendo from just a gaming machine to one that could allow the user to use it many entertaining ways. As the size of the R4 is the same as the Nintendo cartridge it is able to easily fit all models of the Nintendo console. There is a slot at the back of the R4 revolution card where a MicroSD card is inserted. This device supports MicroSD cards that have a storage capacity between 2 GB and 32GB. The R4 card is the adaptor while the MicroSD stores all the software, downloads, applications, games etc. A useful menu appears when the MicroSD card is inserted into the R$ and this helps to choose the application required to run a game or a program.
