    GBA Translation Any GBA Goemon translation out there?

    Hello! I've been curious to play Ganbare Goemon 1 & 2 and Goemon - New Age Shutsudou! on Game Boy Advance, but I can't read Japanese. Have you ever heard of translations of any of these games? I can't find any here, on RHDN, or anywhere else. I assume they haven't been translated, but maybe you...

    GBA DS Style — A Nintendo DS-Inspired Custom Kernel for EZ-Flash Omega & Omega DE

    12AM exactly? That sounds like a bug. When the battery is dead, I believe the time just stops being updated when the console is off. The battery drains pretty fast though, so if it's not precisely 12AM each and every time, it may just be a dead battery.

    GBA DS Style — A Nintendo DS-Inspired Custom Kernel for EZ-Flash Omega & Omega DE

    I'm sharing with you my collection of square thumbnails, it's a mix of ones I found here and there (Steamgrid, IGN, Google, DuckDuckGo…) and ones I modified or created. They are more like modern console game icons, with a large illustration and a title. I tried to make them readable at the low...

    I noticed that in 7.1 and 7.2 the quick start menu has some words overlapping each others in French. I assume some should be shortened. 🙂

    Oh neat, I didn't know that feature of FAT32, thanks for letting me know! While there are ways, it sadly it's not so simple on my system, and it's a nice individual workaround, but I'd say it should be handled by the kernel at least for files specific to it.

    Thanks a lot for the bugfix update! It's really appreciated. 🙂 There's still some extra bit of polish I believe we could have, like: - Hiding systems files at the root of the SD card, like ezkernelnew.bin and SYSTEM, as well as common system metadata files like .Trash, .Trash-1000, .DS_Store...

    GBA DS Style — A Nintendo DS-Inspired Custom Kernel for EZ-Flash Omega & Omega DE

    I'm using 6.7 and when O set my system to French, when I boot the console it always sets itself back to title thumbnails. If I switch back to English (any variant) it works anew. If I look at SETTINGS.TXT, some settings are saved in French, which I assume is the root of the issue. Also I...

    Thanks so much for all you did! You really helped polish the experience of using a GBA to some fairly high standard.

    The amount of polish we can gain from this feature, thanks so much! 🤩 1780590371 Here are some more square custom directory thumbnails, I adjusted the pixel alignment the best I could to make them look sharp, and Iredid the Virtual Console one the same way. The logos likely will look better in...

    GBA DS Style — A Nintendo DS-Inspired Custom Kernel for EZ-Flash Omega & Omega DE

    On my Omega DE I have a directory at the root called "Virtual Console" where I have the "Game boy", "Game Boy Color" and "Game Gear" directories. I wonder if we could have thumbnails for some specially named directory, to e.g. have the Virtual Console logo for the "Virtual Console" directory...

    I probably could add some way to give a ROM path and extract the code from it. I probably also should check the code matches ^[0-9A-Z]{4}$, but well, it's already something. Let me know what you think of it! 🙂

    I wrote a simple thumbnail generator in Rust, I can't share links yet as this is only my second post, but it's at codeberg dot org slash aplazas slash ezflash-omega-thumbnailer. Build and install it with Cargo, and run it like ezflash-omega-thumbnailer --square --code BMXE mzm.png to get an...

    Thanks a lot for this kernel! I wrote a tiny Rust program to help create more square thumbnails, I'll share it after giving it a decent minimal CLI and publishing it somewhere. 🙂 Also once I posted enough here to share links.
