the libtransistor libretro ports currently don't support 4.x so I can't tell exactly what they are capable of. I started the port when libretro still only worked on 3.0 and although it's based of the libretro version of vba-next it's detached from retroarch, so it isn't exactly retroarch anymore.Would someone recommend using this version over the recent Libretro ports of vba-next, or is this just an alternative port?
Thank you for the explanation!the libtransistor libretro ports currently don't support 4.x so I can't tell exactly what they are capable of.

In the long run this project will probably be discontinued anyway, as soon as the retroarch Switch port is mature enough.
Since nobody gave you an actual answer on how to save properly in-game, I'll elaborate.
You want to make sure you don't press the home button at all after saving, you want to press X to bring up the home brew menu and then X again to exit the emulator through the menu. If you do this properly, the game will recognize that you exited as opposed to suspended the software.
Thanks! I can't post images for now.
This is my fork github link: /dene-/vba-next-switch
Edit: added built nro with the setting and also "switch/roms/gba" as starting directory like it was in gdkGBA. Based on 0.3
Edit 2: It's tested of course, I'm using it now on my switch
That works for VBA Next but not
Any chance we could get version 4 with these features and additions to the emulator?
Made a release on my fork: github dot com/dene-/vba-next-switch/releases/tag/0.4.1
Still can't publish links for now.

Thanks! I'm planning on re-adding that later on, after I add sanity checks if folder exists or not, just in case.
Also made UI improvements in the latest commit.
Played Mother 3 for a while with the nearest fullscreen option, and its just lovely.
Two minor points:
- I understand, that you've just put them in, but please add an option to diable the "saved" "loaded" prompts with filepaths in game - as an option - for people that know not to press the home button at any time.. In game, in some games with auto save features they can become very distracting.
- I like the idea of separating settings in a seperate menu (minus), but the button path to get there now is about "as non standard as it gets" (press X, then press - (select in older "terminology")). Also, for people that dont read changelogs, the menu is now pretty hard to find. So maybe - place one entry to the settings menu in the main menu - and both of those "worries" would be solved. (Leave the press - (minus) in as a shortcut.. )
edit: For everyone reading - using frameskip settings causes jumpy screen scrolling - so know that there is a tradeoff, if in a certain game - you'd want to get the music "just right"..
Any chance for a setting to swap buttons to Y and B or even a permanent swap?
I like how A and B are just want to swap x and plus@0x9e I second this request.
Would be so great to swap Y for B and B for A.
I like how A and B are just want to swap x and plus
i edited my response i meant x and +I enjoy playing with joy cons detached so it's not that practical especially when playing mario advance 2.
But why would you want to swap y and +?
