A r4 card is a card you can use to download games on, so you can play them eaiser!
To transfer Nintendo DS games to an R4 game card, you need to first ensure you have a compatible R4 card and a microSD card inserted into it. Use a computer to download the game ROMs from your legally owned games, then copy these ROM files to the microSD card in a folder designated for games. Finally, insert the microSD card back into the R4 card, and you can play the games on your Nintendo DS. Remember that distributing or downloading ROMs for games you do not own is illegal.
R4 is what is called a 'flash game card'. It allows downloaded .nds files to run on an NDS gaming platform. In less scientifical terms, buy an R4, and you can get all DS games in the world, on 1 single game card. However, as most of these things, it has a finite amount of memory, so you will have to delete some games sometime... Also, please remember that the R4 itself is not illegal - if you have bought a bunch of games and want to back them up to an R4 card this is perfectly acceptable. What's illegal is downloading games you don't own so you can play them illegally. Be aware there is a fine line here :)
R4DS is a card which allows you to put on ROMs and play them on the R4 card.
