I prefer injecting a game when possible, but I haven't found a solution for games like Donkey Kong Country 3 that don't save. (By solution I mean, emulator)

Hold the select button when you launch a GBA game and the game will launch unstretched and pixel perfect. On a (New) 3DS XL you will get about the same screen size as a Gameboy Advance (SP).
I use injection. Guaranteed full speed, games with custom banner and since i installed CTRboot manager it's not so bothersome to reboot my 3DS. Yes, i have to install them on both SysNAND and EmuNAND but whatever, it's not like something is going to brick.
Playing GT Advance 3 and the 3 GBA Castlevania like that feels so gooooood :3

Which version of gpSP do you use? I got flickering lines when I don't use a filter and then it randomly freezes forcing me to close the app (so I lose all the unsaved progress).
that dynarec you guys are talking about, is that enabled by default? (i have a N3DS)?
And what filters are you using?
And what filters are you using?
The only way to have Dynamic Recompilation is to use CFW and install the CIA version of gpSP. If you have those requirements, it should be enabled by default.
Filters are, well, image filters that for example help games look good when upscaled. You can change them on the Video configuration.

dynarec should also work if you use the .3ds (Gateway) version, or the .3dsx on 9.2 and lower. just want to mention this...
This was a nice poll. 71 votes! I'm happy to see that gba injection won because that's the best way to play gba games on the 9.2 3ds
Just figured I'd add that gba injection didn't win because it is superior. It won because a majority of people still own the o3ds, which is understandable. If I didn't own a n3ds I'd probably prefer injection. But with the n3ds you actually have the superior choice of using gpsp in its full glory. So really the problem is the amount of users with both systems. Gpsp is the exclusive superior option and beats injection in about almost every way.
I don't agree. I have a N3DSXL. I like the injection better. I think the gpsp is too buggy. And I want perfection
Sure but I think emulation is superior due to stuff like filters, or save states.
Are there filters in the retroarch gpsp built? Or do we need to download the filters separate?
Yes, the default filters come on the retroarch folder that you're supposed to put on the root of your SD. You can download user made filters from the internet too.
Despite never actually trying to do the AGB_Firm method I would like to add my input.
I am using GPSP and playing Pokemon Leaf Green just fine as well as Legend of Zelda Minish Cap. Everything is working as it should except for Multiplayer and Linking.
I haven't encountered any issues unless it's something wrong with "the most bleeding edge nightly build" which I just rollback.
I hear that the graphics are much better using GPSP.
But it sounds pretty cool to think that with AGB your GBA game roms are running exactly as on a GameBoy Advanced.
I wonder how multiplayer and linking will turn out and if there will be any progress made when Pokemon Blue and Red are released for Virtual Console with multiplayer linking.
So, at the end, AGB_Firm vs GPSP? Which offers a better experience? What are we ultimately comparing?

32GBs is the baseline for 4K video editing these days and lots of recommendations for 64GBs but for games 16,GBs is honestly plenty for a long time.
