How to Put Games on R4 for a DS

Downloading games and then putting them on a Nintendo DS is a simple procedure when using the R4, a memory card with a built-in USB adapter that can transfer files from your computer. Using the R4 allows a DS user to have a near-limitless number of games without having to purchase them. The catch, of course, is that you must make sure you can legally acquire and use the video games.
