Hacking Gateway is planing Gba Vc support

[Deleted-355425]

AGS-101 for my GBA fix.

GBA support would be nice, but it should be one of the lowest priorities. You can already perfectly emulate GBA games on about any computer, the DS Phat/Lite aren't so old that nobody has it, and you can emulate GBA on any DS/DSi/3DS/2DS/N3DS via DStwo.

...Unless it means DSiware support, in which case this feature wouldn't be that irrelevant

For a GBA, you'd require a separate flashcart device - and OG GBA's have no backlight and the SP has shitty ergonomics. Tablets and smartphones have no buttons, or you'd have to buy one of those clip on things and a wireless controller and somehow make it work. PC isn't portable and GBA emulation on the PSP is hardly perfect. Not all games run properly (unless they fixed Golden Sun at some point?) and I personally hate the frameskip. Not to mention that not everyone owns a PSP.

gab on the psp actually had been 100% perfected. Full speed, every title.

Oh, really? 0 frameskip too? Even if I run VBA on my laptop, I get performance issues on Pokemon (and probably other games - it's just the only thing I really tried), meaning I have to either deal with frameskip or just general occasional lag.

Dafuq? What VBA version/branch are you using?

It's funny how my TI-Nspire CX CAS can play GBA games, but my fucking 3ds can't.

It's a technical issue not a power issue...

who would want anything more than that? xD

Then your PC must suck. I can play gamecube fine on my laptop. But we're talking about PSP. And yes. Full Speed. 100% compat. When was the last time you've tried it? 2007? (That's a serious question; not sarcasm. It got a LOT better over the years).

I don't remember the first time I used vba, but I was still on dial-up, and the first mario & Luigi game was brand new and that ran at 98-100% on a crappy single core processor (I think it was 1.4 ghz or something) and 384 mb of RAM and onboard video. So yeah, no idea what they were running it on.

 

[blinkzane]

seems like they are planning emulation of all sorts

Just FYI, $15 or $20 us is not going to stop me from enjoying gba roms on my 3ds. Very hard to complain about $20 us imho. With that said, gba support would be nice.

 

[tomx86]

It's over a year, and still no support! Why won't they just make a research on how rxTools do it?

 

[Roboman]

Why you insist on playing these retarded GW waiting games is beyond me. If you can't really see what they are doing then just sell the card, or build a team to compete with GW.

Team Pasta seems effective competition

 

[Kikirini]

Cool, but that's what I keep my GBA emulator for. After all, the GBA VC has no save states and HOW CAN I PLAY FIRE EMBLEM WITHOUT SAVE STATES????

By accepting and mourning your losses.

Kidding aside, AGB_FIRM isn't ideal for games that "need" savestates, yeah, although the closest you can probably get to that is the AGB_FIRM save extractor/injector that came out last week. It'd get tedious fast, though.

You can already get GBA injections working on Gateway emunand. Just setup Reinand on your unlinked Emunand. Boot into gateway menu then do the button holds for sysnand gateway mode (the same way you install the blue card fix). Install the agbfirm on sysnand (using devmenu) along with your legal dumped CIA file. Boot into Reinand on gateway emunand and install the agbfirm there as well in addition to the same CIA game file. Then launch the game from Reinand, native GBA injections on Gateway emunand.

Technically its the gateway emunand but as I understand it Reinand is squatting there.
