Is there a way to get the source of the Loadcode? Also, awesome project, works great and hoping for more great things because of this! I actually bought Shantae just for this

how much did shantae cost?
I second this.
If a "gui" can be made for rom selection to choose a GBC from the root or /GBC directory that would eliminate using multiple .bin and renamed roms (nothing fancy, for example the rom selection in emulators like Lameboy or GameYoB, Before the Green/Yellow/Red screen and browser crash).
As of now I've been using data management in 3ds settings to create backups of my mario golf VC, You can create multiple backups of the same game that have both the suspend point/savedata and the restore point saved to backup. Made 2 save backups there, one is my vanilla mario golf save, and the other is mario golf with a restore point of my hamtaro ham-hams unite save c:
But yes a save dumping/injecting option in said gui could definitely work with .sav's. they're pretty universal when it comes to compatibility for gb/gbc games/emu's. Restore point dumping/injecting would be awesome too (Obviously not as .sav though, whatever formatting nintendo uses for restore points)

Right now, I've been working on something "basic". Loading the rom based on what physical button is pressed(a,b,l,etc.). So, you could have an: a.gbc ,b.gbc, etc.
Something basic, but cool

Having some problems:
The red(first part of while loop) is displayed, but the yellow(second part) crashes back to home. Any ideas?

What if you change i to a different letter for each differnt color? eg:
for Green use g, for Yellow use y and for red use r?
idk thats just a thought

are you able to have text appear instead of just color? Like for green have it say Success on screen
and so on and so forth?
http://goo.gl/forms/MRasWq7cpS you can submit the VC Injector thingy information here
I'm compiling a list of all the webkit homebrew available
Check the GB memory mapping, IIRC GB save ram is a plain memory space, so it must exist somewhere near ROM data for normal emulation.
BTW can't see link to KazoWAR build in the first post, instead only big red "GBC is not working"
It will be a good idea If you both collaborate the code and make a single GB/GBC injector. Or even Bette create a github repo and merge code.
I believe I'll manage to make a bookmark-based ROM selection way much sooner than any ROP/ARM11 based GUI will be made
So far they have not been able to find a good way to do NES injection, it only works with specific roms, so at the moment there is no solution
Lol, how is a full game going to fit into the 3ds' tiny ass memory? It wouldn't even run because there would be 0 mb of RAM left for the game to utilize.
