Probably because there haven't been any games that were experiencing problems.

I read from gbatemp.net that it'll be out next month. And that it'll support SDHC cards.

There's one that I know has problems i.e. Ed's Farm gives a white screen.

Programming isn't something that set in stone, you can give a general outline but you can't plan on having x set of features ready every month.

Errr... why do you want a new one, does the one you have doesn't work and are you experiencing problems with it?

really?
that's great!
but i have heard that it is impossible for the r4 to run with SDHC cards because it is encrypted differently...
but maybe they did find another way...

thats not true. They need to keep updating it to attract more customers.

R4 is already perfect as it is...what else that needed to fixs?99% of the games run on R4 without a problem, the other 0.9% didnt have the v1.1 kernel and 0.1% have a bad dump.Connection to Wii is not a "must" in R4...its not a planed feature, the original goal for R4 is to run Roms and HomeBrew with out a problem....and it is achiving that goal just fine.Additional feature such as "Wii" conectivity is not an importance feature to run the games....you can play Pokemon Pearl just fine without connecting the Wii...if you want to connect to Wii so badly, get the game cart, if you want to be cheap dont complain or get another Product.

Actually, Wii connectivity is planned for the next R4 update.Here's the list of planned things for the next update:SDHC Support
Wii Connectivity
Game fixesI won't believe the SDHC deal until I see it though.

I wonder how much money they actually make?

How can it be perfect is only 99% of games work? If there's a thought of feature that isn't there?I don't believe anything to be perfect, RomUlation certainly isn't. There are loads of things I could improve which sadly costs too much or takes too long, but that still means it's not perfect.

perfect is nothing they can always improve like being able to play gba game some how, people say it "impossible" but thats what they said about hydrogen fueling cars but theyre close to making it happen
