New to DS hacking. Tell me if I'm on the right track.

so I have a fat DS not the slim.  From my understanding after doing some reading all I need to play homebrew, roms, etc. is

CycloDS

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.14184

MicroSD card

Is this all I need?  And is that website trustworthy as far as selling genuine cycloDS?  if not, where did you guys buy your genuine ones?  And is the CycloDS only compatible with certain NDS?  mines is the old fat one, I'm not sure which version.  Thanks.

Re: New to DS hacking. Tell me if I'm on the right track.

yeah pretty much all you need is a flashcart which a CycloDS is a good one to have. And a microSD card, i would recommend a 4gig SD card.

i havent bought from DealXtreme before but I have heard both good and bad from it. I hear they have a lot of non-genuine things and are out of stock on a lot of there items. But I also hear that people get there orders really quick.

I would do more research on that place. ask around.

I will vouch for DealXtreme as everything I have purchased from them has been genuine (unless stated in product description), been ordering from them for about a year now with no complaints or problems. Very friendly people and fairly fast shipping too.

Re: New to DS hacking. Tell me if I'm on the right track.

same as to what Krazy said. DealXtreme has mixed reactions for their service and products... if you decide to buy from them, be cautious

Re: New to DS hacking. Tell me if I'm on the right track.

It is the best, but there are many cheaper options. If all your looking for is to run backups it'll only run you around 20 bux shipped. I"m just putting that out there cause back in the day people thought that they absolutely HAD TO buy an R4

R4 is over rated.

keep an eye on your order from Deal Extreme.

I ended up using dealwoot.com.  And It's been two full business days since they processed the order but still haven't shipped yet.... =/
