This is by far the best way to play GBA on a DSi. As a hypervisor it has less latency than traditional emulation but many features are still unsupported. On lite/phat you can get basically real hardware performance with an EZflash and on 3DS with VC injects, that's where to go if you are a stickler for accuracy.

Tried searching for a bit, but didn't find anything: is there any way to have either sleep mode in Gbarunner or return to Twilight Menu + + in OG3DS so I can use sleep mode there? DIdn't want to leave to the 3DS menu every time I put my system to sleep (which is a lot).

I was mostly concerned about accuracy compared to real hardware.
I just tried it for the first time yesterday playing FireRed and was very surprised by its accuracy - and I'm very picky. The database said about audio and visual glitches - seriously, other than a slight sound when saving it seems almost like 100%. It's pretty great and I'm honestly liking it more than the official GBA injection.

Just saying your mileage may vary. Try giving it a shot first, if you may. Can say I'm surprised.

Yes, it is.
You can ask in this Discord server as well.

Perfect, I'll try here first then

I have an issue with GBARunner 2 in DSi (EU 1.4.5). My games won't show up in the menu on the bottom screen

Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried getting two bios files, putting it in different directories (root and /gba).

You need to install Unlaunch to run GBA games.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
