    Hacking What is the best way to play GBA roms on a non-GBA portable device? (PSP, 3DS, DS, Vita, etc)

    Apologies if this question has been answered elsewhere, but I've spent an hour searching and feel like I'm going down the rabbit hole. I'm using a "4 in 1 DSTwoPlus" with an "EZ Flash V" on my Nintendo DS Lite. It plays GBA games natively, but unfortunately, for the second time I've purchased...

    Gaming Software which can dim/darken the screen for the PSP?

    When I play PSP games at night, even on the lowest brightness settings, it hurts my eyes it's so bright! For my cellphone I use apps like Twilight and Bluelight Filter to effectively deal with this - are there any downloads like this for the PSP? Bonus Points for similar apps on DS / 3DS as...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Gyron, it's a little late but thank you very much for not only giving me this great advice but also going to the trouble of posting a screenshot and uploading the file. I did what you recommended and it works perfectly! Everytime I open up a GBA game, it does take a little while to load the...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Hey guys! As everyone suggested, I recently upgraded from my Cyclone and bought a DS TWO Plus for my DS Lite. I also still have my EZ Flash V in the GBA cartridge slot. However, it seems that the DS TWO Plus is not recognizing my GBA roms. When I open the GBA folder in the UI, it doesn't...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Thanks everyone for your replies! I now understand that there is a disadvantage to using the DS Lite for GBA games because of the small screen when compared with the XL, and also the lack of save state. But these are disadvantages that I'm more than willing to put up with in order to have 100%...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Thank you very much for your reply, Natanelho. I really appreciate it. I guess I will buy the DSTWO+ and use it for DS games, while using my EZ Flash card for GBA games. I have one more question if it's OK - which micro SD card should I buy? I remember back in 2008-2009 I had to buy a special...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Thank you very much for your reply. To be honest, since I've been unable to play GBA games on DS Lite for about a year now, I'm not sure if it's the problem with my CYCLO or with my EZFLASH itself. Just want to clarify what you're saying - if I bought a DSTWO for my DS Lite, it would work with...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    Thank you very much for both of your replies! I really appreciate it. I have some questions. 1. If I bought a DS XL (not a 3DS XL... Just a normal DS XL) would I still be able to play GBA games perfectly like I can on my DS Lite? Does DS XL have that capability? Or is the only way through the...

    Hacking After 7 years, my CycloDS is dying. What should I replace it with?

    GBATemp.net Family, I have been using Cyclo Evolution DS + EZ Flash V with my DS Lite for almost 7+ years now, and generally speaking I've been very happy and satisfied with this combination. However, this year I've became completely unable to play GBA games, and my DS games will freeze...

    Hacking Improving graphics of PSX games on PSP possible?

    With some great and helpful advice from this forum I recently purchased a PSP and figured out how to run downloaded PSX games on it. I know that I have the option to stretch the screen, but is there any option to improve the graphics? e.g. like how the PS2 offers the texture smoothing option...

    Hacking PSP vs PS Vita in terms of emulation only?

    Thank you everyone for your replies. So far it seems like PSP is a better choice than Vita for PSP/emulation since I am not interested in Vita games at the moment. If anyone has any more opinions, please feel free to post - all very interesting comments! == Also thank you for the advice to get...

    Hacking PSP vs PS Vita in terms of emulation only?

    Thank you for your fast reply. I'm sure there are better choices in terms of pure emulation, but in terms of purely PSP vs PS Vita, what would you recommend? *including playing PSP games"

    Hacking PSP vs PS Vita in terms of emulation only?

    Wanting to buy either a PSP or PS Vita and use it for only playing SNES/ PS1 games as well PSP games. Vita games are a low priority for me. If Im only going to use it to play PSP SNES/PS1 games, which would should I buy? It seems like the PS Vita has a lot better screen which would make...
