You should use the M3 Game Manager:
http://www.m3adapter.com/Download.htm
It will patch the roms and generate the folders and saves you need automatically.
hitting start adds a certain loading header to the game automatically, that's all it does.
Yeah, GBA games freeze up on fat 16 [64 k] unless you hit START to start/load the game.
Also watch out for lame roms by Mode7 with the INTROs... it froze up the system for me even if I ran the game with start. So I had to get a program to cut the intro, and then write the rom [now without the intro] to the system.

"I just got a M3 Lite and have a couple of quick questions that I can't seem to find answers to. First, where do I install DS and GBA games? Do they just get transferred to the root of the SD card or do I need to make folders? Also, do I need to manually create the NDSSAVE folder? Any other directories I need to create?"
Like someone said before, install the M3 Game manager. You COULD make a folder for the NDS roms - or just flash them to the root of the card - I don't think it makes any difference, so its up to you. I would just flash it to the root myself though.
The NDSSAVE [for NDS games] and GAMSAVE or whatever [for GBA games] are automatically created by the M3 Game manager the moment you write a nintendo ds or gameboy advance rom to your card I believe - thats what it did for me.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though. -

although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)

@BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.

If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.

and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
