Using the github software to load a rom to the IS Nitro Emulator via my Windows XP PC. I've run eNDryptS Advanced.exe on the rom, renamed the rom to go from .nds to .srl, loaded up IS-NITRO-DEBUGGER v2 to install, then double clicked on the newly renamed rom file.

The software thinks for a short bit and shows a progress bar, the DS controller flashes a couple times then shows the same error every time on a black screen that says "Unable to load data. Turn the power off and reinsert the Game Card".

I've checked the two boxes as I should prior to loading (reset hardware after file is loading and execute both processors after file loads". I've tried different roms, thinking maybe my first was bad or something. Same error every time.

I feel like I'm missing an obvious step, but not sure what it is. Or maybe I've just gotten unlucky and each rom is non-compatible? Not sure.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I want to clarify this was for Mario Kart DS. No rom I've used runs. However, I just tried Animal Crossing, and while the game loads with graphics showing, the in game message reads “Unable to retrieve data. Please turn the power off and reinsert the Game Card.

So... it's working. Kinda.... ish............not really. Going to continue trying other roms.

Yeah, just tried Metroid Prime Pinball "Could Not Read The Data". I'm clearly not doing something if all these games are failing like this :/

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    lol there's a guy selling mig switch in usa on ebay for $200/ea he's definitely going to get nailed with dmca by tomorrow
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    Wasn't Metroid Prime 4 teased all the way back in 2017? For the switch no less?
    :rofl2:
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    Pretty sure anyone buying the switch just for that got duped
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    for $200? rofl.
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The switch was about 350 in 2017

    Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima took the stage at the outset to reveal that Switch will launch globally on March 3, 2017 for $299.99—earlier than some had expected at the price many suspected. https://time.com/4632820/nintendo-switch-nx/

    I was near the test market for the NES and man did it make my 2600 look like ass lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    There has to be some mutual agreement with them all anything over $600 is just pc territory
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:

    The 3DO and Neo Geo where like 700 bucks hmm the PS3 was stupid expensive at launch lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But at least the PS3 was only 500 for the cheapest one at launch
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    My opinion is that 199.99 is the sweet spot but that spot is long gone lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just played some Micheal Jackson Moonwalker.... Those poor parents trying desperately to protect their children
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    400 is a decent sweet spot if we get enough out of it
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's not like how it was when we were locked down to a few options and that's it
